Regulatory T-Lymphocyte (Treg Cell)

A specialized subset of T-lymphocytes that plays a crucial role in maintaining immune tolerance, preventing autoimmunity, and limiting excessive immune responses.

Key Functions:

• Suppresses the activity of other immune cells.
• Maintains self-tolerance and prevents autoimmune diseases.
• Produces immunosuppressive cytokines (e.g., IL-10, TGF-$eta$).

Interacting Systems & Components:

• T-lymphocyte (subset of)
• Immune System (regulator of)
• Autoimmunity (prevents)
• Cytokine (produces)
