Abstract excerpt
Donor CD8+ T cells capable of host reactivity inhibit marrow graft rejection, but also generate graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). To evaluate whether the Tc1- and Tc2-type subsets of CD8 cells might inhibit rejection without host reactivity, we established an F1 into-parent murine bone marrow transplant model. Donor Tc1 and Tc2 cells were generated that preferentially secreted type I or type II cytokines; both...
