Abstract excerpt
Anterior chamber-associated immune deviation (ACAID) is initiated when dendritic cells (DCs) capture intraocular antigen and induce regulatory T cells (Tregs) in the spleen. We investigated whether DCs could be used as an immunotherapy to prevent murine corneal allograft rejection by inducing Tregs. Bone marrow-derived DCs (BMDCs) were differentiated with transforming growth factor-β2 (TGF-β2) in the presence of...
