The discovery of Th17 cells has revealed a novel pathway of T-cell maturation. As with Th1 and Th2 lineages, Th17 cells promote graft pathology. However, a growing body of evidence indicates that Th17 cells may exhibit resistance to current methods of immunosuppression. Identification of this lineage provides an additional and challenging target for promoting graft acceptance.
