Cell preparations comprising a pooled and enriched, mononuclear apoptotic cell population, and a method of preparing this cell preparation are described. The pooled mononuclear apoptotic cell preparation may be obtained from pooled, allogeneic white blood cell fractions that are pooled prior to or following induction of apoptosis. Further, described herein are methods of use of these pooled apoptotic cell preparations for treating an immune disease, an inflammatory disease, an autoimmune disease, or infertility in a subject. For example, a pooled apoptotic cell preparation may be used to treat graft versus host disease (GVHD) in an allogeneic subject.
