CD4+CD25+ T regulatory cells activated during feline immunodeficiency virus infection convert T helper cells into functional suppressors through a membrane-bound TGFβ / GARP-mediated mechanism

Virology Journal, 11(1), 7.

author keywords: FIV; HIV; AIDS; Lentivirus; Treg cells; mTGF beta; GARP
MeSH headings : Animals; CD4-Positive T-Lymphocytes / chemistry; CD4-Positive T-Lymphocytes / immunology; Cats; Feline Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome / immunology; Immune Tolerance; Immunodeficiency Virus, Feline / immunology; Interleukin-2 Receptor alpha Subunit / analysis; Membrane Proteins / metabolism; Signal Transduction; T-Lymphocytes, Regulatory / chemistry; T-Lymphocytes, Regulatory / immunology; Transforming Growth Factor beta / metabolism
TL;DR: Th to Treg conversion may initiate a cascade of events that contributes to the maintenance of virus reservoirs, progressive Th cell immunosuppression, and the development of immunodeficiency, all of which are central to the pathogenesis of AIDS lentivirus infections. (via Semantic Scholar)
