Recently,major advances have been made in our understanding of a naturally occurring lymphocyte subset called regulatory T(Treg) cells that are used by the immune system to perform antigen- or tissuespecific immunosuppression.They play indispensable roles in maintaining health since their deficiency in mice or humans causes fatal inflammatory diseases. They may also be directly involved in the development of autoimmune diseases since their numbers and/or functions are reduced in patients studied
