The Alpha-Melanocyte Stimulating Hormone Induces Conversion of Effector T Cells into Treg Cells
The neuropeptide alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone (α-MSH) has an important role in modulating immunity and homeostasis. The production of IFN-γ by effector T cells is suppressed by α-MSH, while TGF-β production is promoted in the same cells. Such α-MSH-treated T cells have immune regulatory acti...
