Murine xenogeneic immune responses to the human testis: a presumed immune-privileged tissue.

abstract：BACKGROUND:We sought to compare the immunoreactive potential of human cord blood (CB) versus normal adult bone marrow (BM) versus mobilized blood (peripheral blood stem cells; PBSC) from cancer patients. METHODS:Forty mice were randomized to receive a range of doses of T cell-replete cell preparations from one of the ...
