CD28 and CTLA-4 are opposing regulators of T cell activation, triggered by the two ligands CD80 and CD86. How these ligands promote either T cell activation via CD28 or inhibition via CTLA-4 is not understood. Using CD80 and CD86 molecules expressed on transfected cells, we have identified a major d
## Abstract Both CTLA‐4 and TGF‐β have been implicated in suppression by CD4^+^CD25^+^ regulatory T cells (Treg). In this study, the relationship between CTLA‐4 and TGF‐β in Treg function was examined. Blocking CTLA‐4 on wild‐type Treg abrogated their suppressive activity __in vitro__, whereas neut
