MiHA reactive CD4 and CD8 T-cells effect resistance to hematopoietic engraftment following reduced intensity conditioning.

摘要: Reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) prior to allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) has shown promise in lowering the incidence of posttransplant complications including infection and graftversus-host disease. T-cell-mediated graft rejection, however, remains a crucial factor determining how ‘mild’ level immunosuppression can be administered. Understanding kinetics resistance responses as well role CD4 + CD8 T cells underlies development protocols circumvent support engraftment. In these studies, major histocompatibility complex (MHC)-matched/minor antigen (MiHA) disparate RIC HCT model was developed which against donor progenitors mature peripheral blood could assessed. Interestingly, diminished absence either host or cells. However, its impairment more severe −/− mice where not detected. Host were required for optimal expansion specific (H60) T-cell receptor (TCR) expressing anti-donor MiHA reactive following HCT.
