Long-term survival of xenogeneic pancreatic islet grafts induced by CTLA4lg

TL;DR: CTLA4lg therapy blocked human pancreatic islet rejection in mice by directly affecting T cell recognition of B7+ antigen-presenting cells and induced long-term, donor-specific tolerance, which may have applications to human organ transplantation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inhibition of transplant rejection by pretreatment of xenogeneic pancreatic islet cells with anti-icam-1 antibodies
TL;DR: The results suggest that the LFA-1/ICAM-1 interaction is a critical component for xenograft rejection and, more important, that pretreatment of islet tissue with anti-adhesion molecule antibodies can profoundly alter graft recognition and rejection in the absence of any systemic drug therapy.
