Research Abstract |
Periodontal bacteria are the causative agents in periodontitis, but subsequent progression and disease severity are thought to be determined by the host immune responses. It was reported that CD4^+CD25^+ regulate T cell existed and might have roles in progress of periodontitis. The aim of this study was to make CD4+CD25+ Tr cell's roles in periodontitis. CD4^+CD25^+ Tr suppressed proliferation of CD4^+CD25- T cells. After CD4^+CD25^+ Tr was stimulate by Dynabeads HumanT-Activator CD3/CD28, The ability of suppression was reduced. This was suggested that the ability of suppression in CD4^+CD25^+ Tr might be reduced by the stimulation.
