Increasing evidences confirm the role of immune activation in the pathogenesis of chronic heart failure (CHF). Regulatory T cells appear central to the control of immune homeostasis. We assessed the hypothesis that the circulating frequency and function of CD4+CD25+ Foxp3+CD127(low) T regulatory cells (Tregs) would be deranged in patients with CHF.
