Importantly, the phenotype of our Brg1 KO mice closely resembles that of the FoxP3 KO mice, the classic model for IPEX disease, indicating that Brg1 KO is a valid model of IPEX-like disease, even though Brg1 is not a known autoimmune disease-associated gene in humans16. The gene discussed is FOXP3; the disease is immune dysregulation-polyendocrinopathy-enteropathy-X-linked syndrome.
