Abstract

Treatment of autoimmunity and autoinflammation with regulatory T cells has received much attention in the last twenty years. Despite the well-documented clinical benefit of Treg therapy, a large-scale application has proven elusive, mainly due to the extensive culture facilities required and associated costs. A possible way to overcome these hurdles in part is to target Treg migration to inflammatory sites using a small molecule. Here we review recent advances in this strategy and introduce the new concept of pharmacologically enhanced delivery of endogenous Tregs to control inflammation, which has been recently validated in humans.
