Enhancement of tumor growth in allogeneic mice following impairment of macrophage function.

abstract：BACKGROUND AND METHODS:To investigate the frequency of apoptosis and the expression of Fas/Fas ligand (FasL) in liver allografts, we examined 97 biopsy specimens from 62 patients after orthotopic liver transplantation. The results of the biopsies were as follows: acute allograft rejection (n=32); hepatitis C virus (HCV...
