Harnessing CD8<sup>+</sup>CD28<sup>−</sup> Regulatory T Cells as a Tool to Treat Autoimmune Disease

T regulatory cell therapy presents a novel therapeutic strategy for patients with autoimmune diseases or who are undergoing transplantation. At present, the CD4<sup>+</sup> Treg population has been extensively characterized, as a result of defined phenotypic and functional readouts. In t...
