Recipient immune-competent T lymphocytes can survive intensive conditioning
for bone marrow transplantation
A Butturini, RC Seeger and RP Gale
Bone marrow transplantation is usually preceded by intensive chemotherapy
and radiation therapy designed to completely eliminate recipient
immune-competent cells that might reject the donor bone marrow. We show
that seven of 14 bone marrow transplant recipients who received intensive
conditioning retained circulating T lymphocytes that proliferate after
incubation with interleukin 2 and phytohemagglutinin and function as
effector cells in an in vitro model of graft rejection. These T cells may
mediate graft rejection.
