Abstract excerpt
CD4(+)CD25(+) regulatory T cells (Tregs) are well known to suppress immunopathology induced in lymphopenic animals following T cell reconstitution, including acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) post-bone marrow transplantation. The regulatory potential of this subset in nonlymphopenic hosts and in chronic, Th2-mediated GVHD is less clear. We have generated alloantigen-specific cells from CD4(+)CD25(+)...
