Lack of acute xenogeneic graft‐ versus ‐host disease, but retention of T‐cell function following engraftment of human peripheral blood mononuclear cells in NSG mice deficient in MHC class I and II expression

cell engraftment, including an increase in human regulatory T cells. However, high IL-2 levels also induced the development of GVHD. These data document that NSG mice deficient in murine MHC support studies of human immunity in the absence of acute GVHD and enable evaluation of human antibody therapeutics targeting human T cells.-Brehm, M.
