Expression levels of MIF, NLRP1 and FOXP3 genes along with biomarker levels in patients with active form of non-segmental generalized vitiligo: A study in South Indian population [PDF]
Songklanakarin Journal of Science and Technology (SJST), 2022 Vitiligo, the most widespread hypopigmentary syndrome, is considered to be a multifactorial disease in which the active melanocytes are lost. Vitiligo has been studied in a variety of ways, and several genes have been implicated.

Prospective validation of CD4 CD25 FOXP3 T-regulatory cells as an immunological marker to differentiate intestinal tuberculosis from Crohn’s disease [PDF]
Intestinal Research, 2021 Background/Aims Crohn’s disease (CD) and intestinal tuberculosis (ITB) remain “difficult-to-differentiate” diseases. We have previously documented peripheral blood frequency of CD4+ CD25+ FOXP3+ T-regulatory cells (Treg) as a biomarker to differentiate ...

Plasticity of CD4+ FoxP3+ T cells [PDF]
Current Opinion in Immunology, 2009 Regulatory T (Treg) cells play an essential role in maintaining immunological tolerance. The discovery of FoxP3 as a key Treg transcription factor combined with recent advances in the development of functional reporter mice has enabled new insights into Treg biology and revealed unexpected features of this lineage.

Nod2 Deficiency in mice is Associated with Microbiota Variation Favouring the Expansion of mucosal CD4+ LAP+ Regulatory Cells [PDF]
, 2018 Nucleotide-binding Oligomerization Domain-2 (NOD2) mutations are associated with an increased risk to develop Crohn's Disease. In previous studies, we have shown that Nod2-/- mice manifest increased proportion of Lamina Propria (LP) CD4+ LAP+ Foxp3 ...

Maintaining immunological tolerance with Foxp3 [PDF]
Cell Research, 2007 Central tolerance in the thymus is the primary mechanism for deleting autoreactive T cells. Despite this, escape of self-reactive T lymphocytes into the periphery reveals the threat of autoimmunity. To compensate for its imperfection, the thymus also produces a naturally occurring subset of Foxp3+ CD4+ CD25+ regulatory T cells with suppressive function,
