Suppression of HIV-specific and allogeneic T cell activation by human regulatory T cells is dependent on the strength of signals.
Regulatory T cells (Tregs) suppress immune responses against both self and non-self antigens. Tregs require activation through the T cell receptor (TCR) and IL-2 to exert their suppressive functions. However, how strength of TCR signals modulate the potency of Treg-mediated suppression of antigen-sp...
