Zusammenfassung:Highlights • Regulatory T cells and effector T cells have a differential capacity to detoxify cyclophosphamide metabolites. • Gut microbiota plays an important role in the polarisation of T cells to a Th1 and Th17 phenotype in response to low dose cyclophosphamide. • The duration of drug free intervals affects the efficacy of metronomic low dose cyclophosphamide therapy.
