Impact of TGFbeta1 gene polymorphisms on acute and chronic rejection in pediatric heart transplant allografts.

abstract：:Heterotopic renal allografts following bilateral nephrectomies were placed in 21 healthy mongrel dogs. One group of 11 dogs received cyclosporine (5 mg/kg/24 hr, orally), and 1 group of 10 dogs received cyclosporine and mizoribine (5 mg/kg and 3 mg/kg/24 hr, orally). Body weights, blood cell counts, serum chemistry pr...
