Recommended Assay Procedures
BD® CompBeads can be used as surrogates to assess fluorescence spillover (compensation). When fluorochrome conjugated antibodies are bound to BD® CompBeads, they have spectral properties very similar to cells. However, for some fluorochromes there can be small differences in spectral emissions compared to cells, resulting in spillover values that differ when compared to biological controls. It is strongly recommended that when using a reagent for the first time, users compare the spillover on cells and BD® CompBeads to ensure that BD® CompBeads are appropriate for your specific cellular application.

Foxp3 is a 50-55 kDa protein also known as Forkhead box P3, JM2, or IPEX. It is a member of the forkhead or winged helix family of
transcription factors and is specifically expressed by T regulatory (Treg) cells. Foxp3 has been reported to be a key regulatory protein for Treg
cell development and function. Ectopic expression of Foxp3 in conventional T cells is sufficient to induce suppressive activity, repress the
production of cytokines such as IL2 and IFN-γ, and upregulate Treg cell-associated molecules such as CD25, CTLA4 and GITR. It has been
found that the mutation of Foxp3 is responsible for "scurfy" mice. When overexpressed, Foxp3 leads to poor T cell proliferation and
activation
