A genetic method specifically delineates Th1-type Treg cells and their roles in tumor immunity (Yamamoto G, in Cell Rep.)

PRESS RELEASE

The research group of Masahiro Yamamoto has successfully developed a new type of mice in which specific immune cells can be labeled or eliminated. By using the mice, they labeled Th1-Tregs, a subset of regulatory T cells (Tregs), and found that they accumulate in various tumor cells.
