Acceptance of Skin Allografts in Pigs by Portal Venous Injection of Donor Bone Marrow Cells

Abstract

One hundred percent of skin allografts can be obtained, even in pigs, by injecting donor BMCs using the PV, carrying out skin allografts, and administering CsA on days 2 and 5. This single-day protocol would be of great advantage for human organ transplantation.
