Memory T cells are necessary for protective immunity against invading pathogens, especially under conditions of immunosuppression. However, their presence also threatens transplant survival, making transplantation a great challenge. Significant progress has been achieved in recent years in advancing our understanding of the role that memory T cells play in transplantation. This review focuses on the latest advances in our understanding of the involvement of memory T cells in graft rejection and transplant tolerance and discusses potential strategies for targeting memory T cells in order to minimize allograft rejection and optimize clinical outcomes.
记忆性T细胞对于抵御入侵病原体的保护性免疫是必需的，尤其是在免疫抑制条件下。然而，它们的存在也威胁着移植器官的存活，这使得移植成为一项巨大的挑战。近年来，在增进我们对记忆性T细胞在移植中所起作用的理解方面取得了重大进展。本综述重点关注我们对记忆性T细胞参与移植排斥和移植耐受的理解的最新进展，并讨论针对记忆性T细胞的潜在策略，以尽量减少同种异体移植排斥并优化临床结果。
