Allogeneic recognition of donor cells by host T lymphocytes requires the expression of cytokine-dependent molecules, such as class II major histocompatibility antigens, intracellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1), and lymphocyte function-associated antigen 3 (LFA-3). In the liver, activation of Kupffer cells after ischemic injury during the transplantation procedure may result in an early induction of cytokine-dependent molecules.
