    HLA Identical Renal Transplant Tolerance Using Donor Hematopoietic Stems Cells (DHSC): Role of Immunoregulation.

    J. Leventhal,1 J. Mathew,1 D. Salomon,2 S. Kurian,2 J. Friedewald,1 L. Gallon,1 X. Huang,1 A. Tambur,1 Y. Kanwar,1 J. Charette,1 M. Abecassis,1 J. Miller.1

    1Surgery - Comprehensive Transplant Center, Northwestern University, Chicago, IL; 2The Scripps Research Institute, La Jolla, CA.

    Purpose: Despite being a “perfect match”, HLA-identical kidney transplants (HLA-Id KTx) are rejected without sufficient immunosuppression (IS), and hence can also benefit from tolerance induction.…
