LIVER STROMAL CELLS FOR PREVENTION AND TREATMENT OF IMMUNE RESPONSES IN TRANSPLANTATION.

摘要

The present invention encompasses methods and compositions for reducing an immune response to a transplant in a recipient by treating said recipient with an amount of liver stromal cells effective to reduce or inhibit host rejection of the transplant. Also disclosed is a method of inducing a reduced immune response against a host by foreign tissue, i.e., graft versus host disease, by treatment with liver stromal cells.
