TGF-beta and IL-10 production by HIV-specific CD8+ T cells is regulated by CTLA-4 signaling on CD4+ T cells.

Immune dysregulation in HIV-1 infection is associated with increased expression of inhibitory molecules such as CTLA-4, TGF-beta, and IL-10. In this study we examined one potential mechanism for regulating TGF-beta and IL-10 expression by HIV-specific suppressor CD8+ T cells. No overlap between TGF-...
