At the NIH, Ildstad and her mentor, David Sachs, tried to induce the same kind of "chimeric" organ tolerance in adult mice. They used a mixture of marrow from the donor and the recipient. To prevent graft vs. host, they filtered mature T cells out. Their hope was that immature immune cells in the mixed bone marrow would grow inside the mouse into a functioning immune system. If all went well, the hybrid immune system would tolerate both donor and recipient cells as "self."
