... defective, either because there are too many memo ry T cells or they are refractory to RA inhibition. Interestingly, the CD25 - Tregs were also expanded by the combination of RA and TGBb, and these ... regulatory T cells, including that of CD25 - Tregsthatwehavefoundto have lost their regulatory functions (this study). This represents a novel mechanism of auto-reactive T...

Further support for the influence of CD4 + CD25 + T reg cells ... T reg cells does reflect their more activated phenotype, and their ability to enter inflamed joints makes it possible that they act directly at the site of inflammation...
