  5. Bone-Marrow and Stem-Cell Transplants Over half develop GVHD http://www.southalabama.edu/nursing/MSN%20Info/surgery_nurse.jpg

  6. Graft-Versus-Host-Disease (GVHD) • GVHD occurs when transplanted cells reject host cells in the patient Transplanted Cell Patient Cell

  7. Purpose • To use T-reg cells to cure mice with human GVHD GVHD GVHD GVHD GVHD GVHD

  8. First Goal • To devise a new protocol to derive and purify CD4+25+ T-reg cells using human umbilical cord blood

  9. Types of T cells • Cytotoxic T cells • Helper T cells • T-reg cells http://www.britannica.com/eb/art/print?id=85110&articleTypeId=0

  10. CD4+25+ T-reg Cells • Sakaguchi (2005) • Increased capability to suppress immune responses • Low numbers increase risk of autoimmune diseases

  11. CD4+25+ T-reg Cells • Sakaguchi (2005) • Increased capability to suppress immune responses • Low numbers increase risk of autoimmune diseases • Suri-Payer et al (2006) • Potential to suppress multiple types of autoimmune diseases

  12. Umbilical Cord Blood • Godfrey et al (2005) • T-reg cells isolated from peripheral blood are often impure and require multiple purification processes

  13. Umbilical Cord Blood • Godfrey et al (2005) • T-reg cells isolated from peripheral blood are often impure and require multiple purification processes • Umbilical cord blood facilitates easier purification and presents purer quantities of T-reg cells
