Genetic manipulation resulting in decreased donor chondroitin sulfate synthesis mitigates hepatic GVHD via suppression of T cell activity

Abstract Donor T cell activation, proliferation, differentiation, and migration are the major steps involved in graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) development following bone marrow transplantation. Chondroitin sulfate (CS) proteoglycan is a major component of the extracellular matrix and causes immune...
