Brief description Kidney failure is a major health disorder in Australia and with more diabetes the number of patients waiting for transplant on dialysis is increasing. Current treatments give good initial survival of the kidney transplant but most kidneys are lost due to chronic damage . We propose a number of tolerance strategies in a model of kidney transplantation that will allow transplantation without longterm immunosuppression.
