Advantages of cyclosporine as sole immunosuppressive agent in children with transplanted kidneys.

abstract：:Fox kidney and skin grafts were transplanted into dog recipients. Fox kidneys, transplanted en bloc into untreated dogs, survived 6.2 +/- 0.4 days. The skin transplants survived 5.9 +/- 1.4 days. The grafted kidneys showed almost normal function before rejection. Both skin and kidney rejection were mediated through a ...
