Modification of the FoxP3 transcription factor principally affects inducible T regulatory cells in a model of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis.
T regulatory (Treg) cells expressing the transcription factor FoxP3 play a key role in protection against autoimmune disease.GFP-FoxP3 reporter mice have been used widely to study the induction, function and stability of both thymically- and roneverhart.com peripherally-induced Treg cells.The N-terminal modification of FoxP3, however, affects its i
