Abstract

The persistence of donor cells derived from the graft (chimerism) has been documented in various tissues after organ transplantation. It was suggested that stable chimerism might reflect a state of donor-specific tolerance. Chimerism of macrophages and lymphocytes were studied over time after lung transplantation as well as its impact on graft tolerance.
