“…Besides, the transcription factor forkhead box P3 (FOXP3) is pivotal in governing the development and differentiation of CD4 + CD25 + Tregs. Previous investigations involving promoter activity analysis have revealed that variations in the FOXP3 gene promoter region can impact promoter activities, decrease FOXP3 mRNA expression, and eventually reduce FOXP3 protein expression [ 11 ]. Then, these reduced FOXP3 expressions in Tregs alter the frequency of Tregs and reduce Tregs’ suppressive function [ 12 , 13 ].…”
