Human CD4+ CD25hi Foxp3+ regulatory T cells are derived by rapid turnover of memory populations in vivo.

While memory T cells are maintained by continuous turnover, it is not clear how human regulatory CD4+ CD45RO+ CD25hi Foxp3+ T lymphocyte populations persist throughout life. We therefore used deuterium labeling of cycling cells in vivo to determine whether these cells could be replenished by prolife...
