Analysis of alloreactivity and intragraft cytokine profiles in living donor liver transplant recipients with graft acceptance
M Takatsuki, S Uemoto, Y Inomata, S Sakamoto… - Transplant …, 2001 - Elsevier
Although some previous studies have indicated the possibility of immunosuppression
withdrawal in clinical liver transplantation, the mechanism of graft acceptance is not clear.
The aim of this study is to elucidate the alloreactivity against the donor and intragraft
cytokine profiles in living donor liver transplant (LDLT) recipients with graft acceptance. In
October 1999, we had 23 patients who survived without immunosuppression after LDLT with
a median drug-free period of 25 months (range: 3–69 months). They consisted of six patients …
