The transcription factor FOXP3 plays a key role in CD4 + CD25 + regulatory T cell function and represents a specific marker for these cells. Despite its strong association with regulatory T cell function, in humans little is known about the frequency of CD4 + CD25 + cells that express FOXP3 protein

## Abstract Regulatory T cells (Treg cells) have been well documented to have a crucial physiological role in preventing the development of autoimmune diseases and keeping self‐tolerance. Foxp3, a recently identified member of the forkhead transcription factors, serves as a master regulator for the
## Abstract Current literature suggests that T cells recognizing antigen on mature dendritic cells (DC) differentiate into effector T cells whereas tolerance is induced when antigen is presented by immature DC. We investigated the consequences of the interactions between immature or lipopolysacchar
the authors want to correct the Methods section regarding the fixation/permeabilization protocols used for this study. The authors mentioned the use of 4% paraformaldehyde (PFA) on pages 2 and 3 to resuspend the cells lasting the final step before flow acquisition, when in reality 1% PFA was used. F
