Veto function in vitro and in vivo

International Reviews of Immunology
H G Rammensee

Abstract

A CTLp recognizing another cell, called veto cell, is suppressed by that veto cell. The veto cell can itself be a CTL. For the veto function, the TCR of the veto cell is not required, hence the veto function is a backward action of CTL. Since, from the point of view of the veto cell, only self-reactive CTLp are suppressed, the veto function could be a mechanism for maintaining self tolerance of CTL. The characteristics of veto function in vitro and in vivo are discussed, as well as the potential physiological relevance.

Blood And Marrow Transplantation

The use of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation or blood and marrow transplantation (bmt) is on the increase worldwide. BMT is used to replace damaged or destroyed bone marrow with healthy bone marrow stem cells. Here is the latest research on bone and marrow transplantation.
