Dendritic Cell Therapy Improves Kidney Transplant Survival


Researchers at University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine have found a way to prolong kidney transplant survival in monkeys using donor dendritic cells (DCs). DCs are regulators of the immune system, responsible for both immune response and tolerance. In order to promote immune tolerance, the scientists prevented donor DCs from fully maturing and treated a group … Continue reading Dendritic Cell Therapy Improves Kidney Transplant Survival
