Abstract
A significant proportion of patients showed donor-specific cytotoxic hyporesponsiveness long after heart transplantation, which was associated with high mRNA levels of IL-10 but not of FOXP3 or GITR. This observation suggests that IL-10-producing cells participate in the donor-specific cytotoxic hyporeactivity.
