Subpopulation structure of regulatory T-cells of peripheral blood in patients with newly diagnosed pulmonary tuberculosis depending on the clinical form of disease and sensitivity of Mycobacterium tuberculosis to anti-tuberculosis drugs have been analyzed in this work. It has been shown that in formation immune suppression at infiltrative, dissemination and fibrosis-cavity pulmonary tuberculosis the leading part play natural regulatory CD4+ CD25+ Foxр3+ -T-lymphocytes. Thus increase of their number in blood at drug-resistance and drugsusceptible patients. It has been demonstrated that in patients with fibro-cavernous and infiltrative form of the disease and drug-resistance pulmonary tuberculosis the number of CD4+ CD25- Foxр3+ -regulatory T-cells were increasing.
