HLA-G expression defines a novel regulatory T cell subset present in human peripheral blood and sites of inflammation

TL;DR: The presence of HLA-G(pos) T cells at sites of inflammation such as inflamed skeletal muscle in myositis or the cerebrospinal fluid of patients with acute neuroinflammatory disorders suggests an important function in modulating parenchymal inflammatory responses in vivo.
Journal ArticleDOI

Immunoregulatory factors in multiple sclerosis patients during and after pregnancy: relevance of natural killer cells.

TL;DR: Pregnant state in MS patients is characterized by an increase in the percentage ofCD56bright NK cells and by enhanced Th2 type cytokine secretion and a potential role for CD56bright regulatory NK cells in the control of autoimmune inflammation during pregnancy in MS is suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI
