Résumé des résultats (Abstract) (Allemand)

The leukocyte specific molecule coronin 1 is required for the survival of naïve T cells. Inhibition of coronin 1 is a novel approach in immunosuppressive therapy. The first goal is to develop a T cell subsets screening procedure to follow patients undergoing immunosuppressive therapy, to analyze the correlation between paucity of naïve T cells and effectiveness of immunosuppression. The second goal of the project is to develop a diagnostic assay to be used for screening potential coronin 1 inhibitors.
