Syngeneic bone marrow transduced with a recombinant retroviral vector to express endoplasmic reticulum signal-sequence-deleted major histocompatibility complex class-I alloantigen can induce specific immunologic unresponsiveness in vivo.

BACKGROUND: Long-term survival of fully allogeneic cardiac grafts can be induced in mice through transduction of recipient bone marrow cells (BMCs) with a recombinant retroviral vector encoding a single full-length major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I alloantigen. This study investigated...
