Summary

Successful cardiac allografts were accomplished across the major histocompatibility complex of rats. LEW and F344 (Ag-B 2) rats were lethally irradiated and grafted with WF (Ag-B 1) hearts on day 0. Either on day 0 or day 2, the hosts were repopulated with syngeneic hemopoietic cells. The best results were obtained (86%) when a mixture of 3.0 × 107 non-adherent syngeneic bone marrow and thymus cells were used to repopulate the recipients. In contrast, all of the WF to LEW heart grafts were rejected within 30 days if syngeneic thoracic duct and bone marrow cells were used to repopulate the host.
