Core Tip |
The perception of immunological changes induced by ultraviolet (UV) exposure has changed over the past several years. Although carcinogenesis and immunosuppression due to UV irradiation are regarded as detrimental, UV irradiation is also currently considered a useful tool to induce alloantigen-specific regulatory T cells (Tregs). There is great enthusiasm for the potential to develop strategies that can use Tregs for therapeutic interventions. Alloantigen-specific immunosuppression is an ideal therapy for allotransplant recipients. Although the full mechanism has yet to be determined, UV irradiation accompanied by alloantigen immunization produces a beneficial effect in transplant immunity via the induction of alloantigen-specific transferable Tregs. |
