Abstract
A method of reducing an immune response to a transplant in a recipient by treating said recipient with an amount of suppressor T cells effective to reduce or inhibit host rejection of the transplant. The suppressor T cells can be administered before, at the same time as, or after the transplant. Also disclosed is a method of inducing a reduced immune response against a host by foreign tissue, i.e., graft versus host disease, by treatment with suppressor T cells.
