FOXP3 (forkhead box P3), also known as scurfin, is a protein involved in immune system responses. A member of the FOX protein family, FOXP3 appears to function as a master regulator of the regulatory pathway in the development and function of regulatory T cells. Regulatory T cells generally turn the immune response down. In cancer, an excess of regulatory T cell activity can prevent the immune system from destroying cancer cells. In autoimmune disease, a deficiency of regulatory T cell activity can allow other autoimmune cells to attack the body's own tissues.

mIHC analysis of human lung cancer tissue (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) with FOXP3 (IRS008), CD57 (IRS027), MPO (IRS037), CD8 (IRS007) and panCK (IRS010) antibody at 1/100 dilution. The immunostaining was performed with the IRISKitCmTSA Kit (900802). Heat mediated antigen retrieval with Tris-EDTA buffer (pH 9.0) for 30 mins at 95℃. DAPI (blue) was used as a nuclear counter stain. Image acquisition was performed with Olympus VS200 Slide Scanner.
