Immunobiology of xenotransplantation [PDF]

Transplant International, 2000
The transplantation of organs between disparate species is hindered by severe immune responses of the recipient against the graft. These immune responses gives rise to hyperacute and acute vascular rejection and to cellular rejection. Research during the past decade has shed light on the elements of the immune system responsible for the rejection of ...
