摘要: A key issue in mammalian immunology is how CD4+CD25+Foxp3+ regulatory T cells (T(reg) cells) suppress immune responses. Here we show that T(reg) induced apoptosis of effector CD4+ vitro and vivo a mouse model inflammatory bowel disease. did not affect the early activation or proliferation cells. Cytokines signal through common gamma-chain suppressed cell-induced apoptosis. cell death required proapoptotic protein Bim, incubated with showed less prosurvival kinase Akt phosphorylation Bad. Thus, cytokine deprivation-induced prominent mechanism by which inhibit
