Experimental protocol for Group E. The adoptive transfer donors (LTT animals) received 10ml DST/kg body weight one week prior to leukapheresis. The adoptive transfer recipients were treated with 150 rads WBI and given 2.5×109 PBMCs/kg (recipient body weight) from the adoptive transfer donor one day before kidney transplantation. The recipient then received both a class I mismatched kidney from a naïve SLAgg pig and a long-term tolerated kidney allograft (SLAgg) from the adoptive transfer donor without further immunosuppresssion. In order to assess graft function of SLAgg kidneys grafts from naïve animals, two of three animals received graftectomy of the tolerant grafts from LTT donors on days 76 and 107, respectively.
