| Research Abstract |
We have previously demonstrated that (1) thymus plays an important role in induction of transplant tolerance, and (2) extrinsic factors predominantly promote thymic rejuvenation in preclinical MHC inbred swine. Since considerable data in the swine model have indicated that the reason for this age dependence lies in the importance of a non-involuted, functional thymus during the induction period, the proposed study aimed to examine whether pharmacologically rejuvenated thymus induced by LH-RH agonist restored ability of inducing tolerance of allogeneic renal grafts in MHC inbred miniature swine.
