| 4.1 Naturally occurring CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cells
The CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cells are currently the focus of intensive research and were first described in the early 1970s by Gershon and colleagues (Gershon et al., 1974). These cells represent 5-10% of the CD4+ T lymphocytes in healthy adult mice and humans and are thought to perform a specialized role in controlling both the innate and the adaptive immune system. Although easily identified and isolated from unmanipulated mice and humans on the basis of CD25 expression, this chain of the IL-2(R) receptor is also expressed on activated T cells (Maloy et al., 2003; Sakaguchi et al., 2001; Shevach, 2002). So far, no characteristic stable surface marker has been assigned to Treg cells. Additional markers expressed by these cells include cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4 (CTLA-4) (Read et al., 2000; Takahashi et al., 2000) and glucocorticoid induced tumor necrosis factor receptor (TNFSR18) (McHugh et al., 2002; Shimizu et al., 2002), which were initially implicated in the mechanism of Treg action. However, both of these molecules are also expressed by nonregulatory T cells after activation. Various groups identified the forkhead/winged helix transcription factor Foxp3 as a marker for both CD25+ Treg cells and CD25- cell that have regulatory activity (Fontenot et al., 2003; Hori et al., 2003).

Naturally occurring CD4+CD25+ Treg cells The CD4+CD25+ T cell subset is currently the focus of intensive research. These cells represent 5-10% of the CD4+ T lymphocytes in healthy adult mice and humans and are thought to perform a specialized role in controlling both the innate and the adaptive immune system2,3,17. Although easily identified and isolated from unmanipulated mice and humans on the basis of CD25 expression, this chain of the IL-2R is also expressed on activated T cells2,3,17. Thus far, no characteristic stable surface marker has been ascribed to Treg cells. Additional markers expressed by these cells include cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4 (CTLA-4)18,19 and glucocorticoid-induced tumor necrosis factor receptor20,21, which were initially [page 802] implicated in the mechanism of Tregaction. However, both of these molecules are also expressed by nonregulatory T cells, after activation. [...] The forkhead/winged helix transcription factor Foxp3 was shown to be specifically expressed by CD25+ Treg cells, as well as by CD25- T cells with regulatory activity23–25. 2.
