Abstract
Prior blood transfusion (BT)4 confers a significant improvement in transplant survival in recipients (1). However, increased survival across major histocompatibility barriers generally requires the administration of immunosuppressive agents (2–5). The mechanisms by which BT prolongs graft survival have not been fully elucidated. Experimental evidence suggests that suppressor cells (6, 7), soluble suppressor factors (8), and blocking antibodies (9) may play a role.This publication has 10 references indexed in Scilit:
