Human Gene Set: GSE42021_TREG_PLN_VS_TREG_PRECURSORS_THYMUS_UP


Standard name GSE42021_TREG_PLN_VS_TREG_PRECURSORS_THYMUS_UP
Systematic name M9569
Brief description Genes up-regulated in T reg from: peripheral lymph nodes versus thymic precursors.
Full description or abstract We investigated at which stage of maturation commitment to a stable Foxp3-expressing phenotype takes place. We assessed stability of Foxp3 expression in thymic Foxp3+ Treg subsets of different maturity, defined by CD24 expression. Next we compared gene expression profiles of Foxp3+ Treg subsets (+) of different maturity (24lo, 24int, 24hi) and could identify a set of genes that were specifically up or downregulated in Foxp3+ Tregs, but not in Foxp3- conventional T cells, in a maturation-dependent manner.
