Analysis of T cell subpopulations and cyclosporine levels in the blood of two neonates born to immunosuppressed heart-lung transplant recipients.

abstract：:Most alloreactive T cells specifically recognize peptides bound to donor MHC molecules. In addition to peptides, solvent accessible MHC residues also may stimulate alloreactive T cells. We studied T cell receptor (TCR) usage by 16 independent anti-HLA-B7 alloreactive cytolytic T lymphocyte (CTL) clones. Most or all of...
