摘要: Background CD154-blockade-based immunosuppression successfully prevents both humoral and cellular adaptive immune responses in baboons receiving α1,3-galactosyltransferase gene-knockout (GTKO) pig organs. Using a GTKO artery transplantation model baboons, we evaluated the efficacy of CD28/B7 costimulatory pathway blockade comparison to CD154-blockade.
