Antihypertensive drug treatment in chronic renal allograft rejection in the rat. Effect on structure and function.

abstract：BACKGROUND:The liver is an immunologic privileged organ; liver allografts are accepted across major histocompatibility complex barriers in many species. However, hepatocyte transplants are acutely rejected, suggesting a role for liver nonparenchymal cells in regulating the immunoresponse. We have shown potent immunoreg...
