Anti-CD2 receptor and anti-CD2 ligand (CD48) antibodies synergize to prolong allograft survival

Indefinite graft survival was obtained with murine cardiac allografts using the combined administration of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) directed against the receptor ligand pair CD2-CD48. Although each antibody could prolong graft survival when given alone, neither resulted in the indefinite graft survival seen with the combination. Combined mAb administration is associated with inhibition of T cell priming and help and subsequent cytotoxic T lymphocyte generation. This indicates that the interaction between CD2 and its ligand is important for antigen priming and recognition, and combined mAbs may prove to be a useful therapeutic regimen for transplantation.
