A SYSTEM FOR IMPROVING ACCEPTANCE OF TISSUE GRAFTS MADE FROM EMBRYONIC STEM CELLS

摘要

This disclosure provides a system for improving survival of cells obtained by differentiating human embryonic stem cells, upon transplantation into a subject for regenerative medicine. Transplanted cells that don't survive normally send out signals that exacerbate the rejection response of the host, which in turn leads to further cell destruction. This invention helps allografts survive and benefit the subject by blocking this signal pathway.
