Abstract:
Immune suppression is a very important mechanism in alleviating immunologic injury,and recent study has showed that CD4~(+)CD25~(+) regulatory T cell is an important component of the immune suppression system.This T cell subset has an obvious immune-suppressing effect and produces its effect not by secreting cytokine but contacting cell directly.In this review,we describe the biological characteristics of CD4~(+)CD25~(+) regulatory T cell and its functions in infection immunity.
