Live Webinar: Treating autoimmune and inflammatory diseases
with enhanced regulatory T-cells
Prof. David Klatzmann | Sorbonne University, France
|
Interleukin-2
(IL-2) is the main cytokine supporting regulatory T-cells (Tregs) development, survival and suppressive activity.
However, Tregs cannot produce IL-2 and fully
depend on exogenous IL-2.
Treg cell
therapy products are grown for weeks in culture medium containing IL-2
concentration that are 10,000-fold higher than the IL-2 serum concentration
in humans. This generates “IL-2 addicted” Tregs
that might not survive well and/or function optimally when reinjected in
patients. We reasoned that Tregs that could
produce their own IL-2 would have markedly improved therapeutic potential.
What did we discover?
