FOXP3-expressing regulatory T cells (Tregs) play a crucial role in maintaining allogeneic transplant tolerance in experimental models. In clinical transplantation, there are few data about their role in chronic inflammation. We hypothesized that Tregs might accumulate within the graft since enrichment of Tregs has been frequently described in chronically inflamed tissues.
