ABSTRACT:
A method for inhibiting rejection by a recipient animal of a transplanted tissue, said method comprising modifying, eliminating, or masking an antigen which, when present on the surface of a cell of said tissue, is capable of causing a T-lymphocyte-mediated response in said animal, to inhibit antigen-mediated interaction between said cell and a T-lymphocyte of said animal without causing lysis of said cell.
