Rapamycin resistant murine th9 cells have a stable in vivo phenotype and inhibit graft-versus-host reactivity.

The cytokine micro-environment can direct murine CD4(+) T cells towards various differentiation lineages such as Th1, Th2 and Tregs even in the presence of rapamycin, which results in T cells that mediate increased in vivo effects.
