🇨🇺🌐The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization awarded the Carlos J. Finlay Prize, sponsored by #Cuba, to Professor Kenya Honda, of the Department of Microbiology and Immunology of Keio University's School of Medicine (Tokyo) cubanews.acn.cu/science/11707-…

Alexander Dent 🇺🇸🇺🇦 Also, Kenya Honda's group showed that gut Treg activated in vitro with gut bacteria could inhibit OVA driven OT-I activation. In vitro limitations apply, but suggests as long as Treg TCR is stimulated, they have the potential to suppress.
