Inhibition of alloreactivity by mAb MR6: differential effects on IL-2- and IL-4- producing human T cells.

mAb MR6 has previously been shown to block both IL-4-induced T cell proliferation and IL-4-dependent IgE production, suggesting a functional association between the antigen detected by MR6 (gp200-MR6) and the human IL-4 receptor. In this study the potential modulatory effects of mAb MR6 on IL-4 function have been further analysed in alloantigen-specific assays for cytotoxic and Th cell maturation, mature cytotoxic T cell killing, helper cell …
