It is now possible to induce donor-specific transplantation tolerance in adult rodents using a number of therapeutic strategies. Such peripheral tolerance is maintained by regulatory CD4+ T cells, not only in transplantation models, but also in autoimmunity. Differential gene expression analyses have been used to identify potential new markers for regulatory T cells, aiming to reveal new insights into their mechanisms of action, and to find novel targets for therapeutic manipulation of the immune system.
