Nothing in this experience causes us to alter the opinion we expressed a year ago, that donation of bone marrow in man has met with no more than transitory success, lasting up to a few weeks at best. Multiple blood group compatibility provides no guarantee of donor tissue compatibility. It is not at present possible to assure that immune mechanisms of the human recipient will not...Bibliography1.
