Combined treatment with antibody against CD40 ligand and one transfusion of donor splenocytes prolonged survival of fully mismatched BALB/c skin allografts on C57BL/6 recipients, with approximately 20% of grafts surviving > 100 days. In vitro alloresponsiveness in treated animals was reduced in the immediate post-transplantation period, but by day 100 was increased despite the presence of a successful allograft. The presence of alloreactivity on day 100 was confirmed in vivo by adoptive transfer, which suggests that our protocol had induced either a state of "split tolerance" or "graft accommodation." Mice with skin grafts that had survived for > or = 100 days revealed no evidence of lymphoid chimerism. Treatment with donor splenocytes and antibody against CD40 ligand permits long-term survival of highly antigenic donor skin allografts despite the presence of functionally intact alloreactive lymphocytes.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
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

D008810 Mice, Inbred C57BL One of the first INBRED MOUSE STRAINS to be sequenced. This strain is commonly used as genetic background for transgenic mouse models. Refractory to many tumors, this strain is also preferred model for studying role of genetic variations in development of diseases.

D004247 DNA A deoxyribonucleotide polymer that is the primary genetic material of all cells. Eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms normally contain DNA in a double-stranded state, yet several important biological processes transiently involve single-stranded regions. DNA, which consists of a polysugar-phosphate backbone possessing projections of purines (adenine and guanine) and pyrimidines (thymine and cytosine), forms a double helix that is held together by hydrogen bonds between these purines and pyrimidines (adenine to thymine and guanine to cytosine).
