Potential roles of Tregs associated with lung cancer development. a Contact-dependent and contact-independent mechanisms of Tregs in mediating tumorigenesis. All receptors shown are mouse specific. For humans, receptors shown are human-specific except for LAG3, CD73 and Nrp1, which are non-human specific or where human specificity remains undetermined. b Immunosuppressive and pro-tumorigenic processes in lung cancer development depend on quantitative relationships of Treg populations. Arrows indicate Treg-dependent processes, with red indicating positive relationships and blue indicating negative Treg-dependent relationships
