Popis: | Background. Donor-specific tolerance (DST) is induced after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) and is a potential strategy for prolonging survival of solid organ grafts. DST may persist in recipients with transient mixed hematopoietic chimerism (MC) when solid organ transplantation and HCT are done concomitantly. Methods. In a canine model of allogeneic HCT after nonmyeloablative conditioning, DST to skin grafts was evaluated in dog leukocyte antigen (DLA)-identical recipients with stable MC (n=11), or after rejection of the hematopoietic cell (HC) graft (n=19). Results. There was significant improvement in the survival of DLA-identical HC donor-derived skin grafts in recipients with MC compared to normal recipients (n=7; P |
