Attenuation of TCR-induced transcription by Bach2 controls regulatory T cell differentiation and homeostasis

The transcription factor Bach2 is critical for T cell differentiation, but how it functions in Treg cells is unclear. Here the authors use a Treg-specific mouse model to show that Bach2 controls homeostasis and function of Treg cells by limiting DNA accessibility and activity of IRF4 in response to...
