title: [Multiple human cord blood transfusion for inducing low immune response].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To investigate and evaluate a clinically perspective way of inducing transplantation tolerance.
  
  
  METHODS
  Multi-cord blood transfusion was performed before kidney transplantation in 20 cases. Donor-specific mixed lymphocyte reaction(MLR) and allograft rejection were observed and studied.
  
  
  RESULTS
  The donor-specific MLR was suppressed in every recipient. No allograft rejection took place in the cord blood transfusion group three months after kidney transplantation.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Multi-cord blood transfusion is a practical way of inducing transplantation tolerance.
