DGCR8-Mediated Production of Canonical Micrornas Is Critical for Regulatory T Cell Function and Stability

Regulatory T cells (Treg) are integral for immune homeostasis. Here we demonstrate that canonical microRNAs (miRNAs) are required for Treg function because mice with DGCR8-deficient Treg cells spontaneously develop a scurfy-like disease. Using genetic lineage marking we show that absence of miRNAs l...
