French

Domaine(s)
  • Immunologie
CONT

Les thérapeutiques immunosuppressives administrées pour combattre les rejets de greffe pourraient donc être responsables de l'apparition de cancers cutanés après transplantation d'organes. Les cancers cutanés consécutifs aux greffes représentent donc un modèle d'étude approprié permettant d'élargir les recherches en immunologie et en pharmacologie.

OBS

Le féminin de immunosuppressif est immunosuppressive.
