Our data suggest that this approach may induce donor-specific tolerance in clinical islet transplantation and living-related donor solid organ transplantation.
Our data demonstrate that a donor lymphocyte chimerism (>30%) at the time of islet transplantation is required to protect donor-specific islet grafts, and indicate that a strictly non-irradiation-based protocol can be used to achieve this goal.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
