  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "A subpopulation of T lymphocytes characterized by the co-expression of the CD4 and CD25 surface markers. These cells are a subset of regulatory T cells, which are involved in maintaining immunological tolerance and suppressing immune responses. They are identified by flow cytometry using specific antibodies against their surface proteins.",
