Abstract excerpt
Accumulating evidence indicates that regulatory T (Treg) cells control development of various diseases both systemically and locally. However, molecular mechanisms involved in Treg cell homing remain elusive. We have shown previously that alphabetaTCR(+)CD3(+)CD4(-)CD8(-) double-negative (DN) Treg cells selectively accumulate in tolerant allografts to maintain localized immune regulation. However, the molecular...
