Expression of beneficial blood transfusion effect in dogs is dependent upon immunosuppressants used. 1982

To achieve the beneficial blood transfusion effect, postoperative immunosuppression with Aza/Pred is mandatory. When CY-A is used for immunosuppression during a limited time, the transfusion effect is not manifested; however CY-A does not lessen the effect in animals given Aza/Pred. In nontransfused recipients, the combination of Aza/Pred and CY-A did not give better graft survival than CY-A alone.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007166 Immunosuppressive Agents Agents that suppress immune function by one of several mechanisms of action. Classical cytotoxic immunosuppressants act by inhibiting DNA synthesis. Others may act through activation of T-CELLS or by inhibiting the activation of HELPER CELLS. While immunosuppression has been brought about in the past primarily to prevent rejection of transplanted organs, new applications involving mediation of the effects of INTERLEUKINS and other CYTOKINES are emerging.
