Method of producing regulatory t cells by culturing regulatory t cells obtained from umbilical cord blood

Abstract

The present disclosure provides a method for producing a population of regulatory T cells comprising culturing an initial population of regulatory T cells obtained from umbilical cord blood in a media comprising an oligonucleotide having the sequence of AATCGTAACCGTCGTATCGGCGAT (SEQ ID NO: 1) to expand the initial population of regulatory T cells, a method of treating an autoimmune disease comprising administering to a subject in need thereof an effective amount of a composition comprising the regulatory T cells prepared by the above method, and a composition for treating an autoimmune disease, the composition comprising the regulatory T cells.
