Expression of Foxp3 in colorectal cancer but not in Treg cells correlates with disease progression in patients with colorectal cancer [PDF]
Background: Regulatory T cells (Treg) expressing the transcription factor forkhead-box protein P3 (Foxp3) have been identified to counteract anti-tumor immune responses during tumor progression. Besides, Foxp3 presentation by cancer cells itself may also

The role of regulatory T cells in autoimmune thyroiditis
Autoimmune thyroiditis is an organ-specific autoimmune disease caused by the activation of self-reactive CD4+ T cells. Regulatory T (Treg) cells are a population of T cells that play a central role in immunological tolerance by suppressing selfreactive ...

Immunomodulatory Effect of Propolis on Foxp3 Gene Expression in Human Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells Stimulated in vitro with Pseudomonas Aeruginosa Ag [PDF]
Immune balance during infection is critical for both supporting the defense of the immune system of the body and preventing an overly aggressive immune response.

Upregulation of Cytotoxic T-Lymphocyte-Associated Protein 4 and Forkhead Box P3 Transcripts in Peripheral Blood of Patients with Bladder Cancer [PDF]
Background: Regulatory T cells (Tregs) play a key role in the progression of tumors. These cells express forkhead box P3 (FOXP3) and cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4 (CTLA4), which are the potential targets for cancer immunotherapy.

Impact of breast milk miR-155 on the health of preterm neonates
Background. Breast milk (BM) is an important source of microRNAs (miRs). MicroRNAs are highly resistant to gastrointestinal enzymes and are well absorbed in the intestine. MiR-155 is one of the most expressed miR of BM.

A2 adenosine receptor contributes to the development of cow’s milk protein allergy via regulating regulatory T cells [PDF]
Objective(s): A2 adenosine receptor (A2AR) is a novel promising target for the treatment of inflammatory and allergic diseases. However, its role in the development of cow’s milk protein allergy (CMPA) has not been elucidated.

Siah2 control of T-regulatory cells limits anti-tumor immunity. [PDF]
Understanding the mechanisms underlying anti-tumor immunity is pivotal for improving immune-based cancer therapies. Here, we report that growth of BRAF-mutant melanoma cells is inhibited, up to complete rejection, in Siah2-/- mice.

Plasmodium yoelii infection of BALB/c mice results in expansion rather than induction of CD4+ Foxp3+ regulatory T cells [PDF]
Recently, we demonstrated elevated numbers of CD4(+) Foxp3(+) regulatory T (Treg) cells in Plasmodium yoelii‐infected mice contributing to the regulation of anti‐malarial immune response. However, it remains unclear whether this increase in Treg cells is
