The NF-κB RelA Transcription Factor Is Critical for Regulatory T Cell Activation and Stability
...
Published in Frontiers in Immunology
Regulatory T cells (Tregs) play a major role in immune homeostasis and in the prevention of autoimmune diseases. It has been shown that c-Rel is critical in Treg thymic differentiation, but little is known on the role of NF-κB on mature Treg biology. We thus generated mice with a specific knockout of RelA, a key member of NF-κB, in Tregs. These mic...
