Abstract
Objective This study aims to investigate the correlation of CD4+ CD25+ FOXP3+ Tregs and PD‐1+ CD4+ T cells located at cervical lesions and the prognosis of CIN .PD‐1 expression on T cells induces Tregs .Methods Cervical lymphocytes were collected from CIN patients and analyzed by FACS .Comparisons were made between populations of cervical Tregs and PD‐1+CD4+T cells in CIN regressors and non‐regressors .Results A median of 11 .8% of cervical CD4+ T cells were CD4+ CD25+ FOXP3+Tregs ,while a median of 30 .3% were PD‐1+ CD4+ T cells .The proportions of CD4+ CD25+ FOXP3+ Tregs and PD‐1+ cells were significantly lower in CIN regressors when compared with non‐regressors .Conclusion The prevalence of CD4+ CD25+ FOXP3+Tregs negative correlates with spontaneous regression of CIN ,suggesting that cervical Tregs may play an important role in HPV‐related neoplastic immunoevasion .
