Adaptive TGF-β-dependent regulatory T cells control autoimmune diabetes and are a privileged target of anti-CD3 antibody treatment

Abstract: Previous results have shown that CD4 ؉ CD25 ؉ regulatory T cells (Tregs) control autoimmunity in a spontaneous model of type 1 diabetes, the nonobese diabetic (NOD) mouse. Moreover, anti-CD3 reverses diabetes in this setting by promoting Tregs that function in a TGF-␤-dependent manner. This finding contrasts with a large body of work suggesting that CD4 ؉ CD25 high Tregs act in a cytokine-independent manner, thus suggesting that another type of Treg is operational in this setting. We sought to determine the ba… Show more

“…Furthermore, Treg cell deficiency seems important in the pathogenesis of T1D. [21][22][23][24] Consequently, altered immune regulation in T1D might very well be caused by intestinal dysbiosis, which is most intriguing as stimulation of the mucosal immune system by the gut microbiota may influence the way the immune system discriminates between selfand non-self antigens.…”
