GARP Is Regulated by miRNAs and Controls Latent TGF-β1 Production by Human Regulatory T Cells
GARP is a transmembrane protein present on stimulated human regulatory T lymphocytes (Tregs), but not on other T lymphocytes (Th cells). It presents the latent form of TGF-β1 on the Treg surface. We report here that GARP favors the cleavage of the pro-TGF-β1 precursor and increases the amount of sec...
