The beginning of clinical tolerance in solid organ allografts.

Development of effective multidrug immunosuppressive regimens and improvements in the management of chronically immunosuppressed patients have produced extraordinary patient and allograft survival in clinical organ transplantation. Unfortunately, significant problems of morbidity and mortality related to chronic immunosuppression remain. Thus, there is an enormous motivation and interest in ind...

Frontiers in nephrology: immune tolerance to allografts in humans.

Vascularized allografts are rejected unless some indefinite modification to the recipient's immune system is made. This modification is typically achieved through the long-term administration of immunosuppressive drugs. Patients thus trade their end-stage organ failure for dependence on daily drug therapy and the accompanying chronic condition of immunodeficiency. However, it is clear from stud...

Application of irradiation as an immunosuppressive agent.

The concept of using total lymphoid irradiation (TLI) for immunosuppression is based on the prolonged and profound immunosuppressive effects observed after TLI in the treatment of patients with Hodgkin's disease. Pre-operative TLI of allograft recipients has been shown to be immunosuppressive when used alone or together with chemical immunosuppression. Fractionated TLI and allogeneic bone marro...

Xenotransplantation and tolerance.

Donor organ availability has become a major limiting factor in the progress of allotransplantation. This, and advances in genetic engineering in pigs, have led to increasing interest in the use of xenogeneic organs. In view of the greater difficulty encountered in overcoming immune responses to xenografts than to allografts, the success of clinical xenotransplantation may depend on finding ways...

Induction of Immunological Tolerance to Tissue Allografts with Antilymphocyte Serum*

At the present time successful clinical organ transplantation depends on chronic administration of immunosuppressive agents to prevent the persistent tendency of the recipient to reject the graft. Chronic immunosuppressionalthough often successful in maintaining graft function and viability-is frequently associated with numerous and often fatal complications. These associated problems include: ...

Identification of microRNAs involved in acute rejection and spontaneous tolerance in murine hepatic allografts

Graft acceptance without the need for immunosuppressive drugs is the ultimate goal of transplantation therapy. In murine liver transplantation, allografts are accepted across major histocompatibility antigen complex barriers without the use of immunosuppressive drugs and constitute a suitable model for research on immunological rejection and tolerance. MicroRNA (miRNA) has been known to be invo...
