Title: The study of regulatory T cells and NKT cells in Japan: a historical perspective. Author: Arase H, Seino K. Journal: Int Immunol; 2009 Oct; 21(10):1101-3. PubMed ID: 19737781. Abstract: Immune regulation plays an important role in maintaining homeostasis of the immune system.

In particular, lymphocyte populations that could regulate immune responses-for example regulatory T cells and NKT cells-have been extensively analyzed. Here, we present an overview of research on immune regulation by highlighting the work of several Japanese contributors.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
