Cell-intrinsic NF-κB activation is critical for the development of natural regulatory T cells in mice.

BACKGROUND:Naturally occurring CD4(+)CD25(+)Foxp3(+) regulatory T (Treg) cells develop in the thymus and represent a mature T cell subpopulation critically involved in maintaining peripheral tolerance.
