Conversion of T Follicular Helper Cells to T Follicular Regulatory Cells by Interleukin‐2 Through Transcriptional Regulation in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

Impaired function of Tfr cells might be attributed to defective IL-2 production. Exogenous IL-2 restores the function of Tfr cells through the conversion of Tfh cells to Tfr cells in patients with SLE. Thus, restoring balance between Tfh and Tfr cells may provide new therapeutic approaches in SLE.
