Rémy et al. [50] 2001 Pig Aortic endothelial cells from 30 d old pigs express both MHC I and MHC II Rat LEW.1A Striatum 400,000
Pig Embryonic neurons from ventral mesencephalon e25–28 express little or no MHC I. 400,000
Results
Endothelial cells were rejected quickly (3–7 days) by primarily macrophage/microglia cells. Neurons were rejected much later (14–21 days) by both macrophages and cytotoxic lymphocytes.
