TL;DR: It is demonstrated that a short treatment with immunosuppressive agents, such as 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3/mycophenolate mofetil, induces tolerance to islet allografts associated with an increased frequency of CD4+CD25+ regulatory cells that can adoptively transfer transplantation tolerance.
