Summary

Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is an autoimmune condition characterized by increased platelet destruction and suppression of production resulting in isolated thrombocytopenia. The exact etiology of ITP is unknown; however, multiple disease mechanisms exist and are mostly related to immune dysregulation \[1\].

Many studies in recent years have indicated that regulatory T cells (Tregs) play a critical role in the maintenance of immunological tolerance, and they have been reported to be defective in ITP patients, either numerically or functionally. \[2-6\]. They inhibit the activation and proliferation of effector T cells by the secretion of cytokines such as interleukin-10 (IL-10) and tumor growth factor-β (TGF-β) and by cell-to-cell interaction \[7, 8\].
