Antigen-specific immune function after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation

Year: 2003

Type: article

Abstract: Hematopoietic stem cell recipients are characterized by an immunodeficiency of varying severity and duration. The present review focuses on the antigen-specific function of recipients with the hypothesis that the acquisition of antigen-specific function is predictive of the recipient's capacity to resist lethal infection with environmental pathogens.
