One way to circumvent the need for chronic immunosuppression in solid organ xenografting may be to induce donor-specific tolerance using bone marrow transplantation. If this approach is to succeed in the pig-to-human species combination, pig marrow must be capable of maturing into relevant tolerance-inducing cells and replenishing itself in host human marrow. One possible barrier is adhesion molecule incompatibility. We have studied the compatibility across the pig-human species barrier of two well-characterized ligands known to be important in hematopoiesis, CD44 and very late antigen (VLA)-4.
