    Abstract : Solid organ transplantation has evolved from being an experimental procedure to a life-saving treatment for patients with end-stage organ failure. The risk of losing a transplant due to acute rejection is very low with the use of modern immunosuppressive protocols and the short-term results are impressive. READ MORE

  5. 3. Modulation of the Immune Response in Concordant Xenotransplantation

    Abstract : Xenotransplantation, i.e. transplantation between different species, could be a possible solution to the present shortage of organ donors. The immunological response to a xenograft is strong and difficult to suppress. READ MORE

  6. 4. Minimizing Risks and Morbidity in Live Kidney Donors

    Author : Ali-Reza Biglarnia; Jonas Wadström; Gunnar Tufveson; Tomas Lorant; Ingela Fehrman-Ekholm; Uppsala universitet; []
