The roles of T helper type 17/regulatory T cells in acute rejection after liver transplantation in rats.

abstract：:To determine if cold preservation time continues to affect renal transplant outcome, prospectively collected data from 17,937 cadaveric renal transplants performed between 1982 and 1991 were analyzed. Cold preservation intervals of 1-16, 16-32, 32-48, and greater than 48 hr were studied by multi- and univariate method...
