Patient Travel Distance and Post Lung Transplant Survival in the United States: A Cohort Study.

abstract：:In a murine strain combination disparate in both H-2 antigens and minor histocompatibility antigens consisting of C57BL/6 (B6; H-2b, Mls-1b) mice as recipients and AKR/J (AKR; H-2k, Mls-1a) mice as donors, we reported that the administration of anti-TCR-alpha beta mAb nonspecifically suppresses the ability to reject a...
