CD4+ T-cell depletion is pathognomonic for AIDS in both HIV and simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) infections. It occurs early, is massive at mucosal sites, and is not entirely reverted by antiretroviral therapy (ART), particularly if initiated when T ...

Regulatory T cells and T cell depletion: role of immunosuppressive drugs. [PDF]
Allogeneic immune responses are modulated by a subset of host T cells with regulatory function (Treg) contained within the CD4(+)CD25(high) subset. Evidence exists that Treg expand after peritransplantation lymphopenia, inhibit graft rejection, and induce and maintain tolerance.

T-cell depletion of HLA-identical transplants in leukemia. [PDF]
We analyzed the effects of T-cell depletion on the outcome of HLA- identical sibling bone marrow transplants for leukemia by comparing 731 T-cell-depleted transplants with 2,480 non-T-cell-depleted transplants. T-cell depletion decreased acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) (relative risk [RR] 0.45; P less than .0001) and chronic (GVHD) (RR 0.56; P ...

Transient T cell depletion causes regression of melanoma metastases [PDF]
Background Cognate immunity against neoplastic cells depends on a balance between effector T cells and regulatory T (Treg) cells. Treg cells prevent immune attack against normal and neoplastic cells by directly suppressing the activation of effector CD4+

Time scales of CD4+ T cell depletion in HIV infection. [PDF]
Rob De Boer discusses a new study that investigated whether a runaway process of T cell activation/infection would be compatible with the slow time scale of memory CD4(+) T cell depletion in humans with chronic HIV infection.

Cutting-edge approaches to B-cell depletion in autoimmune diseases
B-cell depletion therapy (BCDT) has been employed to treat autoimmune disease for ~20 years. Immunoglobulin G1 (IgG1) monoclonal antibodies targeting CD20 and utilizing effector function (eg, antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity, complement-dependent

CD3/CD19 Depletion for T-cell Reduction of Allogeneic Transplants: Mostly Efficient, but not Robust
Aggressive T-cell depletion, in vitro or in vivo, is a prerequisite for survival of haplo-identical stem cell transplantation. The classical T-cell-depleted transplant, immunomagnetically enriched CD34+ cells, is very safe with respect to graft-versus ...

Compelling evidence suggests a crucial role for Foxp3+ regulatory T cells (Tregs) in the control of atherosclerosis. Although suppression of pro-inflammatory CD4+ T cell immune responses is supposed to be important for athero-protective action of Foxp3 ...
