Regulatory T cells mediated suppression serves pivotal mechanism of negative-regulation of immune mediated inflammation. Type 1 regulatory T cells (Tr1 cells) are an important subset of CD4+ T cells that help to control excessive inflammatory responses and maintain tolerance. One way in which Tr1 cells mediate an anti-inflammatory role is via their production of interleukin 10 (IL-10), which dampens the function of both antigen-presenting cells and antigen-specific effector T cells. Additionally, Tr1 cells are capable of killing effector and myeloid cells through the Perforin-Granzyme B pathway. In vitro differentiated Tr1 cells suppress development of autoimmune tissue inflammation upon adoptive transfer in vivo. Here we describe the in vitro differentiation of naïve murine CD4+ T cells to IL-10 producing Tr1 cells by using IL-27 stimulation.
