Vitamin D Deficiency Contributes to the Reduction and Impaired Function of Naïve CD45RA+ Regulatory T Cell in Chronic Heart Failure by Yan-hui Ma, Yun-lan Zhou, Chao-yan Yue, Guang-hui Zhang, Lin Deng, Guo-hua Xie, Wei-ping Xu, Li-song Shen

“…Naïve Treg cell (CD4+CD45RA+Foxp3loT) subset, rather than whole Treg cells, contributes to the reduction of Treg in CHF. 1,25(OH)2D treatment maintained partial expression of CD45RA on CD4+T cell after αCD3/CD28 monoclonal antibodies activation and ameliorated the impaired CD4+CD45RA+T cell function from CHF patients through upregulating Foxp3 expression and IL-10 secretion in vitro. …”

Atorvastatin Improves Inflammatory Response in Atherosclerosis by Upregulating the Expression of GARP by Xiaoqi Zhao, Yuzhou Liu, Yucheng Zhong, Bo Liu, Kunwu Yu, Huairui Shi, Ruirui Zhu, Kai Meng, Wei Zhang, Bangwei Wu, Qiutang Zeng

“…In this paper, we present that atorvastatin could upregulate the expression of GARP and TGF-β in CD4+ T cells and increase the numbers of CD4+LAP+ and CD4+Foxp3+ regulatory T cells in ApoE−/− mice. Also, we indicate that atorvastatin promotes the aggregation of GARP+ and Foxp3+ cells and secretory of the TGF-β1 in atherosclerotic plaques. …”
