Abstract excerpt
During allograft rejection, several immune cell types, including dendritic cells, CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells among others, recirculate between the graft and the nearest draining lymph node, resulting in immunity against the 'foreign' tissue. Regulatory CD4(+) T cells are critical for controlling the magnitude of the immune response and may act to promote or maintain tolerance. They are characterized by the...
