microRNA-142 guards against autoimmunity by controlling Treg cell homeostasis and function.

Regulatory T (Treg) cells are critical in preventing aberrant immune responses. Posttranscriptional control of gene expression by microRNA (miRNA) has recently emerged as an essential genetic element for Treg cell function. Here, we report that mice with Treg cell-specific ablation of miR-142 (herea...
