Neutralizing interleukin-4 prevents transplant arteriosclerosis mediated by indirect pathway T cells under CD40-CD154 costimulation blockade.
INTRODUCTION: Blockade of the CD40-CD154 costimulatory pathway can prolong allograft survival, but does not prevent the development of transplant arteriosclerosis in several models. In this study, we investigated the mechanisms of CD40-CD154-independent transplant arteriosclerosis in major histocom...
