The invention relates to a method for activating regulatory t-cells (Treg-cells) of the human or animal body, comprising a step of bringing into contact the regulatory t-cells (Treg-cells) in a suitable liquid medium with one or a plurality of inhibitors of alanyl-amino peptidase (amino peptidase N; APN) and/or with one or a plurality of inhibitors of peptidases with the same substrate specification by induction of a suppressive effect of the regulatory t-cells (Treg-cells). |
