Immunosuppression with a combination of the leflunomide analog, FK778, and microemulsified cyclosporine for renal transplantation in mongrel dogs.

abstract：:An isolated vascularized bone marrow transplant (iVBMT) model was previously developed in the rat to specifically study the role of bone marrow and its environment in a composite tissue allotransplant. An extraperitoneal model was successfully created to avoid laparotomy and cross-clamping of the great vessels. The ex...
