FOXP3 is a lineage-defining transcription factor that controls differentiation and maintenance of suppressive function of regulatory T cells (Tregs). Foxp3 is exclusively expressed in Tregs in mice. However, in humans, FOXP3 is not only constitutively expressed in Tregs; it is also transiently expressed in stimulated CD4+CD25- conventional T cells (Tconvs)
