Chronic osteomyelitis is associated with the immune suppression. CD4(+)CD25(+) FOXP3(+) regulatory T cells (Tregs) play a key role in the peripheral tolerance to prevent immune responses to self-antigens and allergens. Evidence has suggested that the accumulation and activity of Tregs are regulated by chemokine family member CXCL10 and its receptor CXCR3 in human atherosclerotic lesions. This study aimed to investigated the effect of CXCL4, a member of chemokine family, on Tregs, and the underlying mechanisms.
