Deskripsi

Treg cells can maintain intestinal homeostasis and limit intestinal bowel disease. Here the authors use a mouse model of spontaneous colitis to show that calcineurin-NFAT-induced IL-2 production by dendritic cells regulates the balance between Treg and effector T cells in the gut lamina propria.
