A short course of Tofacitinib sustains the immunoregulatory effect of CTLA4-Ig in presence of inflammatory cytokines and promotes long-term survival of murine cardiac allografts

Abstract excerpt
Costimulation blockade-based regimens are a promising strategy for management of transplant recipients. However, maintenance immunosuppression via CTLA4-Ig monotherapy is characterized by high frequency of rejection episodes. Recent evidence suggests that inflammatory cytokines contribute to alloreactive T cell activation in a CD28-independent manner, a reasonable contributor to the limited efficacy of CTLA4-Ig. I...
