Regulatory T cells (T<sub>reg</sub> cells) can activate multiple suppressive mechanisms in vitro after activation via the T cell antigen receptor, resulting in antigen-independent suppression. However, it remains unclear whether similar pathways operate in vivo. Here we found that antigen-specific T<sub>reg</sub> cells activated by dendritic cells (DCs) pulsed with two antigens suppressed conventional naive T cells (T<sub>naive</sub> cells) specific for both cognate antigens and non-cognate anti ...[more]
