In this study we investigated which type of T cells: high T-cell receptor (TCRhigh, cells of thymic origin) or intermediate TCR (TCRint, cells of extrathymic origin), expanded in the liver and other organs, resulting in the induction of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) with minor lymphocyte stimulating (M1s) disparity.
