The role of tregs in glioma-mediated immunosuppression: potential target for intervention
The function of the immune system is to recognize foreign materials in the body and
distinguish them from normal body tissues and cells. Immune responses consist of cell-
mediated (T cells, natural killer cells, and phagocytes) or humoral (B cells, antibodies, and
complement) responses modified and regulated by cytokines. Antigen-presenting cells
(APCs) such as dendritic cells (DCs) and macrophages take up antigens, partially degrade
them, and present them to T cells in the context of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) …
