Nippon Rinsho 63:670-7. 2005
Analyses of peripheral blood mononuclear cells in operational tolerance after pediatric living donor liver transplantationYing Li
Department of Transplantation and Immunology, Horizontal Medical Research Organization, Transplant Tolerance Unit, Kyoto University, Faculty of Medicine, Kyoto, Japan

ET-Kyoto solution plus dibutyryl cyclic adenosine monophosphate is superior to University of Wisconsin solution in rat liver preservationXiangdong Zhao
Department of Organ Preservation Technology, Graduate School of Medicine, Kyoto University, Kyoto 606 8507, Japan
Cell Transplant 17:99-109. 2008..In conclusion, ET-K supplemented with db-cAMP is superior to UW in rat liver preservation. This modified ET-K might therefore be a novel candidate for the procurement and preservation of multiple organs...

Abdominal Transplant Department, University Hospital of Leuven, Herestraat 49, 3000 Leuven, Belgium
Transpl Int 16:383-90. 2003..In Htx, however, FTY 720 allows full development of tolerance. The mechanisms by which FTY 720 causes rejection in primary intestinal but not in heart grafts need to be elucidated...
