Graft-versus-host reaction induced by spleen grafting in inbred strains of rats. Influence of portal venous drainage. 1983

J Gugenheim, and D Houssin, and E Martin, and H Bismuth

Acute graft-versus-host (GvH) reaction was induced by spleen grafting in inbred rats. A comparison of the influence of portal or caval drainage of the spleen graft on the survival time was made. This comparison revealed a prolongation of survival time in case of a portal drainage when the graft was an auxiliary half-spleen graft. This result suggests that the liver may have, in some conditions, protective capacities against an acute GvH reaction.

D007108 Immune Tolerance The specific failure of a normally responsive individual to make an immune response to a known antigen. It results from previous contact with the antigen by an immunologically immature individual (fetus or neonate) or by an adult exposed to extreme high-dose or low-dose antigen, or by exposure to radiation, antimetabolites, antilymphocytic serum, etc. Immunosuppression (Physiology),Immunosuppressions (Physiology),Tolerance, Immune
