T regulatory cells, Hodgkin Lymphoma, Non Hodgkin Lymphoma, Cytotoxic T lymphocyte Antigen-4Abstract
Regulatory T cells (Tregs) know for monitoring and regulating the immune response in healthy individuals. In hematological malignancies, Tregs cells exert an immunosuppressive effect thus playing an important role in tumor progression and spread. It is a systemic review focusing on evolution and prognostic role of Tregs in hematological malignancies and the results are very conflicting. Different tissues (peripheral blood, Lymphnode tissue and bone marrow) were used for studies with applications of different methods like Flow cytometry on whole blood / isolated peripheral blood mononuclear cells with different gating techniques, Immunohistochemistry using different panel of monoclonal antibodies, which partially explained the confrontation of results. It is of particular importance to mention above finding to solidify the requirement of use of standardized approaches in study of Tregs in hematological malignancies and in cancer.
