We developed an approach for the expansion of Mauritian cynomolgus macaque polyspecific regulatory T cells (Tregs) through the combination of MHC‐mismatched CD40L‐engineered B cells. Expanded Tregs expressed high levels of FoxP3 and Helios, a high percentage of TSDR demethylation, and strong suppression of naïve T cell responses in vitro . This approach has the potential to be translated to clinical studies for deceased‐donor transplants.
