Abstract
⺠Costimulatory pathways have a critical role in the regulation of alloreactivity. ⺠A complex network of positive and negative pathways regulates T cell responses. ⺠Blocking costimulation improves allograft survival in rodents and non-human primates. ⺠The costimulation blocker belatacept is being developed as immunosuppressive drug in renal transplantation.
