Multipotent Adult Progenitor Cells suppress homeostatic driven activation of T cells in vivo
In the setting of transplantation, T cells are deliberately depleted to prevent allograft rejection. However, this IL-7 activates the accelerated proliferation of effector memory T cells, which are the predominant mediators of graft rejection. Multipotent adult progenitor cells (MAPC) have been previously shown to modulate the response of T cells to IL-7, in vitro but not in vivo. Here, for the fi
