FOXP3 and GARP (LRRC32): the master and its minion

The transcription factor FOXP3 is essential for the development and function of CD4(+)CD25(hi)FOXP3(+ )regulatory T (T(reg)) cells, but also expressed in activated human helper T cells without acquisition of a regulatory phenotype. This comment focuses on glycoprotein-A repetitions predominant (GARP...

description The transcription factor FOXP3 is essential for the development and function of CD4(+)CD25(hi)FOXP3(+ )regulatory T (T(reg)) cells, but also expressed in activated human helper T cells without acquisition of a regulatory phenotype. This comment focuses on glycoprotein-A repetitions predominant (GARP or LRRC32) recently identified as specific marker of activated human T(reg )cells, which may provide the missing link toward a better molecular definition of the regulatory phenotype. Reviewers: Dr Jim Di Danto, Dr Benedita Rocha and Dr Werner Solbach.
