CESTI IHU: towards an innovative therapy aiming at modulating the immune system
The research program led by Prof. Karin Tarte (ITIS Laboratory, Rennes University Hospital, member of the CESTI IHU) aims to understand more fully the immunological properties of mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs), which are used in regenerative medicine and in the treatment of diseases of the immune system.
In transplantation, these cells may notably be used to modulate the immune system in transplanted patients.
