Changes of phenotype and function of human CD4+CD25- T cells induced after Foxp3 transfection
Objective To explore the effects of Foxp3 gene transfection on the phenotype and function of CD4

CD25
-
T cells. Methods The pMSCV-Foxp3 retroviral vector encoding Foxp3 gene was transfected into PT67 packaging cell line. Virus-containing supernatant was applied to differentiated CD4

T cells
then the cells were sorted with flow cytometry. The expressions of C

CD127
CTLA4 and proliferation of transfected CD4

T cells were examined. Results Foxp3 gene transfected CD4
+
CD25
-
T cells could express Foxp3. Transfection of Foxp3 gene upregulated the expressions of CD25 and CTLA-4
but down-regulated CD127 expression. After transfection
the proliferation of CD4

CD25
-
T cells was eliminated. IL-2 could not induce the proliferation of transfected T cells. Transfected T cells inhibited the proliferation of CD4

-
T cells acquired a regulatory phenotype and function after transfected with Foxp3 gene
