FOXP3+ regulatory T cells: Current controversies and future perspectives.

abstract：:Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is a potent inducer of interleukin 1 (IL 1) synthesis and release, and of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) secretion. Many signals can enhance the LPS-induced production of these cytokines. We have previously observed that addition of low amounts of normal human serum to the culture medium enhances...
