Research Abstract |
Abrogation of organ rejection by BrdU and 5FU was examined using rat liver transplant model. ACI rat liver was transplanted into LEW rat orthotopically. Without treatment the recipient was died within 11days. With the treatnent of intravenous injection of BrdU and 5FU surviva days was 17 days. However, with the treatment of intraperitoneal contimuous injection of BrdU and 5FU the recioent lived for 45 days. Histrogical findings revealed no rejection in the treatment group. On the other hand in the no treatment group, severe cell infiltration was recognized.
