In summary, we highlight Treg as critical cells involved in suppressing the anti-glioma immune response. This mechanism involves the co-inhibitory ligand CTLA-4, is therapeutically modulated with Treg-depleting CD25 mAb and Treg function-modulating GITR agonistic mAb. We also highlight the tryptophan catabolizing enzyme, IDO1, as a critical modulator of Treg recruitment and/or expansion to/within the glioma, as well as raise the possibility that enzymes with similar catabolic activity, IDO2 and TDO, may be attractive future targets for immunotherapeutic consideration. With these insights in mind, Treg immunomodulation as a means to increase GBM immunogenicity appears to be a rapidly developing approach.
