## Abstract ## BACKGROUND Active suppression by CD4^+^CD25^+^ regulatory T cells plays an important role in the down‐regulation of the response of T cells to foreign and self antigens. Experimental tumor models in mice revealed that regulatory T cells inhibit antitumor immune responses. The purpos
## Abstract Interleukin‐2 (IL‐2) treatment is currently used to enhance T cell‐mediated immune responses against tumors or in viral infections. At the same time, IL‐2 is essential for the peripheral homeostasis of CD4^+^CD25^+^Foxp3^+^ regulatory T cells (Treg). In our study, we show that IL‐2 is a
