Skin cancers in transplant patients [PDF]
Skin tumors are frequent in transplant patients, and their potential for progression (locoregional recurrences, metastases) is much greater than in the general population. The viral element with HPV probably represents one of the etiologic factors, although other only partially known factors play a role, including the sun and genetic factors.

Induction of donor-specific transplantation tolerance to skin and cardiac allografts using mixed chimerism in (A + B → A) in rats [PDF]
Mixed allogeneic chimerism (A + B → A) was induced in rats by reconstitution of lethally irradiated LEW recipients with a mixture of T-cell depleted (TCD) syngeneic and TCD allogeneic ACI bone marrow. Thirty-seven percent of animals repopulated as stable

Immunology of skin transplantation
Untreated viable allogeneic skin is highly immunogenic. Epidermal Langerhans migrate after transplantation out of the donor skin into the lymph node of the recipient where they can activate T cells capable to mediate rejection. Allogeneic skin is used as a temporary coverage of burn wounds, often in combination with autologous skin grafts.

Decision Support System for Renal Transplantation [PDF]
The burgeoning need for kidney transplantation mandates immediate attention. Mismatch of deceased donor-recipient kidney leads to post-transplant death. To ensure ideal kidney donor-recipient match and minimize post-transplant deaths, the paper develops a prediction model that identifies factors that determine the probability of success of renal ...
