Transplantation Research | Full text | Differential activation of human T cells to allogeneic endothelial cells, epithelial cells and fibroblasts in vitro

transplantationresearch.com — “In the direct pathway, T cells recognize intact donor major histocompatability complexes and allogeneic peptide on the surface of donor antigen presenting cells (APCs). Indirect allorecognition results from the recognition of processed alloantigen by self MHC complexes on self APCs. In this study, we wished to evaluate the relative contribution of different intragraft cells to the alloactivation of naïve and memory T cells though the direct and the indirect pathway of allorecognition.View full resource at transplantationresearch.com
