The Foxp3+ T cell lineage is thought to arise from self-specific precursors during development. By using a unique mouse model, Pacholczyk et al. (2007) present compelling evidence that self-specific cells are exceedingly rare among Foxp3(-) and, surprisingly, Foxp3+ subsets.
Foxp3+ T细胞谱系被认为在发育过程中源自自身特异性前体细胞。通过使用一种独特的小鼠模型,帕乔尔茨克等人(2007年)提供了令人信服的证据,表明自身特异性细胞在Foxp3(-)以及令人惊讶的是在Foxp3+亚群中极其罕见。
