## Background: Cd4+cd25+ regulatory t cells (tr) can prevent or treat experimental murine colitis but little is known about their potential role in human inflammatory bowel disease (ibd). foxp3 is a transcription factor that plays a critical role in the development and function of cd4+cd25+ tr. the
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
Mutations of forkhead box p3 (__FOXP3__), the master gene for naturally occurring regulatory T cells (nTregs), are responsible for the impaired function of nTregs, resulting in an autoimmune disease known as the immune dysregulation, polyendocrinopathy, enteropathy, X-linked (IPEX) syndrome. The rel
