Deskripsi
Regulatory T (Treg) cells may lose the expression of their master transcription factor, Foxp3, and be converted to pro-inflammatory cells. Here the authors show that this lineage plasticity may be mediated by the enhanced expression of another transcription regulator, Id2, which suppresses the transcription of Foxp3 to alter Treg lineage stability.
