In a previous study, Dombrowski et al. [44], has reported that Treg cells are able to promote myelination and remyelination and its transcriptional factor, Foxp3, is a good indicator of Tregs activity [21, 45].”  Where in the cell does Foxp3 act? The FOXP3 protein is found in an immune system gland called the thymus, where regulatory T cells are produced. Foxp3 is a master regulator of transcription in a specific T-cell type, CD4 (+) regulatory T cells (Treg). Foxp3 is a good indicator of Tregs activity.    By what word or words in the quote of question 10 do you know that your answer to question 10 is correct?

Would like a better explanation on Foxp3. Typed what I know for the first questoin
