“…However, the development of graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) mediated by alloreactive donor T cells responding to minor or major histocompatibility antigen disparities between donor and recipient remains a major cause of patient morbidity and mortality for patients receiving T-cell replete allo-HSCT (Chakraverty and Sykes, 2007;Ferrara et al, 2009;Hill et al, 2021). T cell depletion of the graft can reduce the incidence and severity of GvHD in patients but is associated with an increased risk of graft rejection, infections, and leukemia relapse (Apperley et al, 1986). Therefore, extensive research has been focused on identifying other cellular components of the graft that could modulate donor T cells and reduce the risk and severity of GvHD without diminishing normal immunological functions, including NK (Yamasaki et al, 2003), B (Shimabukuro-Vornhagen et al, 2009), and CD4 + CD25 hi FoxP3 + T regulatory (Treg) cells (Pabst et al, 2007;Wolf et al, 2007).…”
