Dr. Megan Levings and her team have recently published two papers on the very different functions and uses of regulatory T cells (Tregs). Tregs are immune cells that help to rein in immune responses to ensure that they don’t go too far and begin harming healthy tissues in their pursuit of foreign invaders.
