- Abstract:
The article explains how scientists have created a protein by infusing two other proteins together which successfully treats inflammatory issues. The protein was injected into mice that had received transplanted human tissue and with the protein, their body did not reject the transplant. Since the protein is made from the cells of the person receiving it, there is not risk of immune rejection.
