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 ## Background The purpose of this study was to investigate the presence of CD4^+^CD25^+^FOXP3^+^ regulatory T (Treg) cells both in peripheral blood and local tumors in patients with nasal inverted papilloma (NIP). ## Methods By using flow cytometry, the frequencies of CD4^+^CD25^+^FO
## 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 selfβtolerance. Foxp3, a recently identified member of the forkhead transcription factors, serves as a master regulator for the
