Immunoregulation.

Abstract

In order to successfully treat individuals exposed to ionizing irradiation using bone marrow transplantation, ways must be developed that will allow us to regulate both recipient and donor immune responses, and to specifically delete clones of harmful cells. Under this contract, antibodies are being developed that recognize specific cell surface structures and receptors as well as cell interaction molecules. These reagents will allow specific clones, such as those involved in inducing graft versus host disease in bone marrow. (Author)
