Increased cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen-4 (CTLA-4) expression by CKD-L in Treg cells from C57BL/6 mice (n = 3). CD4+CD25– T cells were isolated from splenocytes of C57BL/6 mice. CD4+CD25– T cells were incubated with vehicle or HDAC6 inhibitors (1 to 10 μM) in the presence of antiCD3/CD28 beads and recombinant TGF-β2 in a 48-well plate for 6 days. CTLA-4 expression in CD4+CD25+Foxp3+ T cells was analyzed by mean fluorescence intensity (MFI; mean ± SEM) using flow cytometry. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.001, vs vehicle
