Zhang L, Hadley GA (2010) Application of anti-CD103 immunotoxin for saving islet allograft in context of transplantation. Chin Med J (Engl) 123(24):3644-51.
Summary: This work investigates whether depletion of CD103-positive cells protects transplanted islets from host-immune cell attack. Diabetes was induced in mice, followed by an islet transplant. Anti-CD103-SAP (Cat. #IT-50) was administered via i.p. injection (1.0 mg/kg or 2.0 mg/kg). Rat IgG-SAP (Cat. #IT-17) was used as a control. Diabetic mice treated with anti-CD103-SAP after islet transplantation had an indefinite survival time as compared to untreated mice that survived fewer than 20 days.
