    Characterizing the Innate and Adaptive Immune Responses in the Pathogenesis of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm. Our central hypothesis is that the chronic inflammatory process that characterizes AAA initiation and progression is a result of memory T cell sensitization to epitopes produced by lung injury from cigarette exposure. It is when regulatory control is lost that these effector T cells react to similar epitopes (elastin and collagen fragments) in the aortic wall. My laboratory has characterized defects in immune regulation mediated via CD4+CD49b+LAG-3+ Tr1 and Foxp3 T-regulatory cells. Furthermore we have demonstrated that mesenchymal stem cells are capable of inducing Tr1 cells and suppressing AAA expansion in mouse models. Based on these plenary discoveries we are conducting the Phase I ARREST Trial, a first in man analysis of systemic administration of alloegeneic MSCs in patients with small AAA.
