Abstract excerpt
Costimulation blockade (CoB)-based immunosuppression offers the promise of improved transplantation outcomes with reduced drug toxicity. However, it is hampered by early acute rejections, mediated at least in part by differentiated, CoB-resistant T cells, such as CD57+PD1- CD4 T cells. In this study, we characterize these cells pretransplant, determine their fate posttransplant, and examine their proliferative...
