Abstract
Immunological response of the human body is controlled by the suppressive characteristics of regulatory T cells (Tregs). In various diseases a change in the number of Tregs is evident. For example, whereas Tregs are reduced in auto-immunological processes, an increase of Tregs is found with various malignant tumors. Regarding medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) no such studies have been performed to date.
