Abstract:regulatory function. For example, intermediate-potency T regs might be useful to prevent immune-mediated damage during an infection by limiting bystander activation while permitting pathogen clearance. High-potency T regs may show greatest use in the reversal of dysregulated or autoimmune conditions that are not mediated by an infection.
