Dependency of the trans vivo delayed type hypersensitivity response on the action of regulatory T cells: implications for monitoring transplant tolerance.

BACKGROUND: The trans vivo delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) assay has been used for monitoring the immune status of clinical transplant recipients. Here we tested the hypothesis that the assay can reveal control of allograft rejection by CD25CD4 regulatory T cells (Treg). METHODS: CBA.Ca (H2) re...
