🧠 The Discovery: Body’s Built-in Brake System

In 1995, Shimon Sakaguchi identified a unique group of immune cells — Regulatory T-cells — that act as a “brake system” for our immunity, keeping it from going out of control.
Later in 2001, Mary E. Brunkow and Fred Ramsdell discovered the FOXP3 gene, which controls these T-cells.
When this gene malfunctions, the immune system attacks the body — leading to deadly autoimmune diseases like IPEX Syndrome.

💉 Impact on Medicine

This discovery has revolutionized the way scientists understand and treat diseases.
It has opened new pathways for therapies that aim to activate or control Regulatory T-cells — a potential cure for autoimmune disorders, cancer, and organ transplant rejection.
