Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesRadiation Triggered Phenotypic Changes of Regulatory T CellsLantao Liu, Yan Peng, Deqin Zhang, Dongsheng NiuIonizing radiation disrupts the immune balance easily. Regulatory T (Treg) cells directly affect the immune balance after radiation exposure. Meanwhile, the present study is to investigate the survival ability and phenotypic changes of Treg cells induced by 60Co γ-rays in order to expand the understanding on how Treg cells modulated by radiation. Mice lymphocytes were isolated from thymus and spleen … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 20 Mar 2022 · 5,830 accessesView PDFCite
