Abstract excerpt
After transplantation, Th1-mediated immune rejection is the predominant cause of graft failure. Th1 cell sensitization occurs through complex and context-dependent interaction among antigen-presenting cell subsets, particularly CD11b+ DCs (DC2) and CD103+ DCs (DC1). This interaction necessitates further investigation in the context of transplant immunity. We used well-established preclinical models of corneal...
