mRNA FoxP3 expression in sorted CD4+CD25bright T cells of healthy controls and JIA patients before and after ASCT. CD4+CD25bright T cells were isolated from the PB of 3 patients who had received transplants before and at different time points after ASCT and from the PB of 3 healthy controls. mRNA FoxP3 was measured by quantitative PCR. Data are expressed as the mean normalized gene expression (± SEM).
