Antigen-specific immunosuppression induced by liver transplantation in the rat.

abstract：:The CD154-CD40 pathway is one of the critical costimulatory pathways that are required for full activation of T cells during alloimmune responses. Blockade of this pathway with anti-CD154 antibodies has been reported to prolong allograft survival in experimental transplantation models and to induce tolerance in some i...

abstract：:In liver allograft rejection, interlobular bile ducts are thought to be the main target of rejection. In contrast, in other organ allografts the capillary bed of the graft appears to be the primary target. To determine whether portal tract microvasculature is destroyed in liver allografts during rejection, we have ide...
