Abstract:
Organ transplantation is the optimal treatment for patients with an end-stage organ disease.The induction of donor-specific tolerance is necessitatd because of severe side-effects of immunosuppression and chronic rejection of the transplanted organ that defy management.Bone marrow infusion and costimulatory blockade are considered to be the most effective strategies to induce immune tolerance.This review briefly discusses the mechanism and clinical application of immune tolerance induced by bone marrow infusion combined with costimulatory blockade.
