  2. Regulatory T cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regulatory_T_cell

    All T cells derive from progenitor cells in the bone marrow, which become committed to their lineage in the thymus.All T cells begin as CD4-CD8-TCR- cells at the DN (double-negative) stage, where an individual cell will rearrange its T cell receptor genes to form a unique, functional molecule, which they, in turn, test against cells in the thymic cortex for a minimal level of interaction with ...

  3. CD4+ T cells and antitumor immunity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CD4+_T_cells_and_antitumor...

    This discovery furthered the development of a previously hypothesized theory, the immunosurveillance theory. The immunosurveillance theory suggests that the immune system routinely patrols the cells of the body, and, upon recognition of a cell, or group of cells, that has become cancerous, it will attempt to destroy them, thus preventing the growth of some tumors.

  4. T cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T_cell

    T cells are one of the important types of white blood cells of the immune system and play a central role in the adaptive immune response. T cells can be distinguished from other lymphocytes by the presence of a T-cell receptor (TCR) on their cell surface. T cells are born from hematopoietic stem cells, [1] found in the bone marrow.

  5. FOXP3 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FOXP3

    A member of the FOX protein family, FOXP3 appears to function as a master regulator of the regulatory pathway in the development and function of regulatory T cells. [6] [7] [8] Regulatory T cells generally turn the immune response down. In cancer, an excess of regulatory T cell activity can prevent the immune system from destroying cancer cells ...

  7. T helper cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T_helper_cell

    Interleukin 4 acts on helper T cells to promote the production of T h 2 cytokines (including itself; it is auto-regulatory), while interleukin 10 (IL-10) inhibits a variety of cytokines including interleukin 2 and IFNγ in helper T cells and IL-12 in dendritic cells and macrophages. The combined action of these two cytokines suggests that once ...
