Thymic emigration: sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor-1-dependent models and beyond.

abstract：:Regulatory T cells (Treg) are vital in maintaining the homeostasis of immune reactions. In chronic infections, such as schistosomiasis, it remains unclear whether engagement of the TLR family is required to induce Treg activity. Thus, we performed in vivo studies using TLR2-/- mice infected with Schistosoma mansoni an...
