Embryonic Stem Cell Extracts Possess Immune Modulatory Properties That Prevent Dendritic Cell Maturation and T Cell Activation

Embryonic stem cells (ESC) possess immune privileged properties and have the capacity to modulate immune activation. ESCs can persist across allogeneic immunological barriers, prevent lymphocyte proliferation in mixed lymphocyte reaction (MLR) assays and can promote graft acceptance. However, clinic...
