Experience with antilymphocyte globulin in 144 renal transplant recipients.
In patients receiving cadaveric kidneys and treated with antilymphocyte globulin (ALG) the one-year graft survival 59%. The corresponding figures with living related donors were 87% and 83%, respectively. Side effects of ALG, of which allergic reactions were the most common, prompted its withdrawal in 33% of the cases. All patients studied developed antibodies against horse gammaglobulin when tested with a passive haemagglutination inhibition technique. ALG seems to act upon the T-cells since the number of cells forming rosettes with sheep red blood cells was reduced.

Lymphocyte subpopulations in uremics and in transplanted patients.
In 30 chronically uremics, 37 renal transplanted patients and 31 controls, the number of T- and B-cells was calculated as well as the lymphocyte response to the mitogens PHA, Con A and anti-B2m. In uremics the relative number of T-cells was normal, the number of B-cells was reduced and the response to mitogens was suppressed. During the early post transplantation period the relative number of both T- and B-cells was reduced as well as the mitogenic response. Following three months of successful transplantation the relative counts of T-cells and the response to mitogens returned to normal. The relative number of B-cells remained lowered however.
