✦ Synopsis


Intraportal inoculation of C57BL/6 marrow cells into sublethally (400rad) irradiated BALB/c recipients resulted in durable chimerism and the permanent acceptance of C57BL/6 skin allografts. Sublethally irradiated recipients of a similar number of marrow cells inoculated systemically did not develop chimerism or any significant prolongation of the survival of C57BL/6 skin allografts. Consequently, lethal graft-versus-host disease developed only in recipients of intraportal marrow allografts (80%). The intraportal injection of allogeneic C57BL/6 marrow cells into nonirradiated recipients resulted in significant, although not permanent, prolongation of skin allograft survival without durable chimerism, suggesting that the introduction of alloantigens intraportally may favor the induction of nonresponsiveness to alloantigens even across strong major histocompatibility barriers. The relevance of these findings is discussed regarding the intraportal inoculation of allogeneic bone marrow cells for the treatment of genetic disorders in utero through the induction of neonatal tolerance.

Recipients of allogeneic bone marrow transplantation are pancytopenic for several weeks and immunosuppressed for many months as a result of myeloablative therapy required to eliminate the basic disease and to prevent allograft rejection. After bone marrow transplantation, these patients remain profo
