Cluster of differentiation (CD)4+CD25+ regulatory T cells (Tregs) exert a suppressive activity on atherosclerosis, but the underlying mechanism remains unclear. Here, we investigated whether and how Tregs affect macrophages foam-cell formation. Tregs were isolated by magnetic cell sorting-column and...
