Genetic Characterization of Strain Differences in the Ability to Mediate CD40/CD28-Independent Rejection of Skin Allografts

Simultaneous blockade of the CD40 and CD28 T cell costimulatory pathways effectively promotes skin allograft survival in C3H/HeJ mice, extending median survival times (MSTs) beyond 100 days. This strategy is markedly less effective in C57BL/6 mice, with MSTs ranging between 20 and 30 days. In this s...
