Overview

Review demonstrates how regulatory T cells establish oral tolerance in the intestinal immune system, highlighting mechanisms by which dietary factors suppress inflammation and allergic responses.

Key Points

  • To synthesize evidence on how regulatory T cells mediate immune responses to dietary antigens and maintain oral tolerance and immune homeostasis.
  • Narrative synthesis of mechanisms underlying thymic and intestinal regulatory T cell differentiation.
  • Evaluation of dendritic cell-mediated induction of mucosal tolerance and dietary immunomodulation.
  • Regulatory T cells differentiate in both the thymus and intestinal immune system to suppress self-antigen reactions and establish oral tolerance to ingested foods.
  • Diet-induced intestinal regulatory T cells mediate systemic immunomodulatory effects, including the reduction of inflammatory processes and alleviation of pollinosis symptoms.
