| Abstract |
CD4(+)CD25(+) regulatory T (T(reg)) cells develop in the thymus and can suppress T cell proliferation, modulated by Foxp3 and cytokines; however, the relevance of CD44 in T(reg) cell development is less clear. To address this issue, we analyzed Foxp3 expression in CD44(+) T(reg) cells by using multiple parameters, measured the levels of the immunoregulatory cytokine interleukin (IL)-10 in various thymocyte subsets, and determined the suppressor activity in different splenic T(reg) cell populations. |
