Over the course of the last decade, mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) have made a remarkable entry in the field of cell-based immunotherapy. In vitro, MSC were shown to modulate the immune response, either by acting as an immunosuppressant on several immune cells, or upon IFN-γ stimulation, as an antigen presenting cell (APC) for the priming of CD4+ T cells. Although a vast array of in vivo experiments in animals and humans has undeniably proven the immunological properties of MSC, the exact mechanisms by which MSC mediate their effects remain unclear. In Chapter 1, I presented a succinct review of the literature in regards to the characteristics of MSC. In Chapter 2, I addressed the immunosuppressive mechanisms of human MSC toward T cell pro...
