A major role for the Fas pathway in acute graft-versus-host disease
1 Dec 1996
Abstract excerpt
Recent studies have suggested a role for the Fas pathway in the wasting syndrome associated with lpr-->wild-type bone marrow transplants. To directly examine whether Fas ligand has a major role in the development of acute graft-vs-host disease (GVHD), Fas ligand-deficient (gld) mice were used as donors and C3H/HeJ x C57BL/6F1 as recipients in the parent-into-F1 model of acute GVHD. Transplantation of C3H/gld...
