Allo-Reactivity of Mesenchymal Stem Cells in Rhesus Macaques Is Dose and Haplotype Dependent and Limits Durable Cell Engraftment In Vivo
29 Jan 2014
Abstract excerpt
The emerging paradigm that MSCs are immune privileged has fostered the use of "off-the-shelf" allogeneic MSC-based therapies in human clinical trials. However, this approach ignores studies in experimental animals wherein transplantation of MSCs across MHC boundaries elicits measurable allo-immune responses. To determine if MSCs are hypo-immunogeneic, we characterized the immune response in rhesus macaques...
