Severe rejection of small bowel transplantation (SBTx) has been ascribed to abundant lymphoid tissues in the small intestine without well-established evidence. However, the role of donor lymphocytes in rejection is still unclear. The novel immunosuppressant, FTY720, is reported to transfer peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBLs) to lymphoid tissues such as mesenteric lymph nodes (MLNs) and Peyer patches (PP). In the present study, the number of donor lymphocytes in the graft was increased by FTY720, and the influence on rejection was studied in a rat model. Furthermore, the number of the PBL of recipient was decreased by FTY720 before SBTx and the effect on rejection was examined.
