Tregs Promote the Differentiation of Th17 Cells in Silica-Induced Lung Fibrosis in Mice
BACKGROUND: Silicosis is an occupational lung disease caused by inhalation of silica dust and characterized by lung inflammation and fibrosis. Previous study showed that Tregs regulate the process of silicosis by modulating the maintenance of immune homeostasis in the lung. Th17 cells share reciproc...
