Cyclosporine's effect on functional reserve in the renal allograft.

abstract：:It has been reported that the response to alloantigens presented by the direct and indirect pathway may be of differential relevance after human kidney transplantation. Accordingly, we monitored these routes in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) of heart transplant patients from before transplantation and up to...
