Essential and non-overlapping IL-2Rα-dependent processes for thymic development and peripheral homeostasis of regulatory T cells
Interleukin-2 (IL-2) signaling is required for regulatory T (Treg) cell differentiation in the thymus, but its function in peripheral Tregs is still unclear. Here the authors show, using inducible deletion of IL-2 receptor subunit CD25, that IL-2 signaling is essential for maintaining peripheral Tre...
