Abstract
The combined use of antilymphocytic serum and live donor-specific bone marrow cells has produced significant immunosuppression in dogs as judged by renal allograft survival. This combined action is specific in that it cannot be reprodued whether given alone or when live donor-specific bone marrow cells are replaced by dead donor-specific bone marrow cells or other antigens. The study has paved the way for human trials.
