Red cell antigens and renal transplantation.

abstract：:Cyclosporine prevents the development of diabetes in spontaneously diabetic BB rats and NOD mice. However, islet transplants have been shown to be subject to immunologic destruction in hosts treated with CsA and anti-CD4 antibody or those rendered tolerant to donor antigens. This study determines whether the minimum d...
