Expression of Helios, an Ikaros Transcription Factor Family Member, Differentiates Thymic-Derived from Peripherally Induced Foxp3+ T Regulatory Cells
Open accessAbstract
Helios, a member of the Ikaros transcription factor family, is preferentially expressed at the mRNA level by regulatory T cells (Treg cells). We evaluated Helios protein expression using a newly generated mAb and demonstrated that it is expressed in all thymocytes at the double negative 2 stage of thymic development. Although Helios was expressed by 100% of CD4+CD8−Foxp3+ thymocytes, its expression in peripheral lymphoid tissues was restricted to a subpopulation (∼70%) of Foxp3+ T cells in mice and humans. Neither mouse nor human naive T cells induced to express Foxp3 in vitro by TCR stimulation in the presence of TGF-β expressed Helios. Ag-specific Foxp3+ T cells induced in vivo by Ag feeding also failed to express Helios. Collectively, these results demonstrate that Helios is potentially a specific marker of thymic-derived Treg cells and raises the possibility that a significant percentage of Foxp3+ Treg cells are generated extrathymically.

In mice, high expression of Helios and low expression of Neuropilin-1 (Nrp-1) has been proposed to discriminate between thymus Treg and peripherally-induced Tregs.
“In mice, high expression of Helios and low expression of Neuropilin-1 (Nrp-1) has been proposed to discriminate between thymus Treg and peripherally-induced Tregs [364, 365]”
From Guidelines for the use of flow cytometry and cell sorting in immunological studies (third edition) (2021) · cites this paper as [364]
The Abstract and Discussion report that Helios is expressed in thymic-derived Treg cells but absent from induced Foxp3+ cells examined in vitro and in vivo, supporting its proposed use as a distinguishing marker in mice. The cited paper does not address Neuropilin-1, so it does not support that part of the jointly cited sentence. (LLM, conf=0.87)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredHelios, Nrp-1 or ROR-γt are widely accepted for the discrimination of tTreg and pTreg cells under homeostatic conditions.
“Yet, Helios, Nrp-1 or ROR-γt are widely accepted for the discrimination of tTreg and pTreg cells under homeostatic conditions [364-366, 437-440].”
From Guidelines for the use of flow cytometry and cell sorting in immunological studies (third edition) (2021) · cites this paper as [364]
The Discussion (page not provided) says Helios divides peripheral Foxp3+ Treg cells into two populations and suggests that the Helios-negative population is generated in the periphery. But the authors describe that inference as indirect and correlative; this paper does not establish Helios as a widely accepted discriminator under homeostatic conditions. The other markers in the sentence are not the part this Helios study supports. (LLM, conf=0.85)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
