Use of (CA)n polymorphisms to determine the origin of blood cells after allogeneic canine marrow grafting.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Diagnosing acute rejection (AR) in kidney transplant recipients typically requires an invasive kidney biopsy. A previous study has suggested that expression of five genes in peripheral blood can indicate the presence of AR in American pediatric kidney transplant recipients. This study aims to validate if the...

abstract：BACKGROUND:T lymphocyte activation mediated by CD28 costimulation plays a critical role in graft rejection. Plant alkaloid tetrandrine, purified from a Chinese antirheumatic herb, is a potent immunosuppressant. Here, we examined its effects on several CD28-costimulated T-cell activities. In addition, such effects were ...
