Combined therapy of TLI, PP, low-dose IVIG, and ATG is an effective therapeutic measure to reduce the level of HLA antibodies and therefore to desensitize recipients pre-transplant and to reverse AMR post transplant. The potential mechanism of the therapy involves inhibition of B cell proliferation.
