...…in the control of functional FoxP3+ Treg cells, as indicated by the protective effects of AhR activation in experimental models of autoimmune disease like EAE (Quintana et al., 2008, 2010), colitis (Goettel et al., 2016), uveitis (Nugent et al., 2013), and diabetes (Kerkvliet et al., 2009)....
[...]
...Indeed, AhR activation by ITE during EAE decreased CD86 and CD103 expression in DCs, reducing their ability to trigger proliferation and proinflammatory cytokine production in T cells, while increasing their production of TGF-b1 and IL-10....
[...]
...Thus, the suppression of EAE by ITE administration likely involves multiple AhR-dependent mechanisms such as the suppression of effector T cells and CNS-resident cells by FoxP3+ Treg cells and Tr1 cells in addition to the modulation of DC function....

...…including direct transactivation and the induction of epigenetic modifications that control Foxp3 transcription, and also through the modulation of DCs (Goettel et al., 2016; Kaye et al., 2016; Kerkvliet et al., 2009; Mezrich et al., 2010; Quintana et al., 2008; Singh et al., 2011, 2016)....

...Moreover, ITE treatment increased the ability of DCs to expand Foxp3+ Treg cells and IL-10+ Tr1 cells and suppress EAE (Quintana et al., 2010)....

...FoxP3+ Tregs play a central role in the control of immune reactivity to self and non-self antigens, as shown by the inflammatory conditions associated with mutant FoxP3 in humans (Sakaguchi et al., 2010) and in mice (Fontenot et al., 2003; Hori et al., 2003; Wan and Flavell, 2007)....

...After antigen uptake in the presence of DCmaturating stimuli, DCs upregulate the expression of the class II major histocompatibility complex, costimulatory molecules and cytokines that promote the polarization of T cells into specific populations (Banchereau et al., 2000; Guermonprez et al., 2002)....
