Background, We have previously demonstrated that mixed xenogeneic chimerism and donor-specific T-cell tolerance can be induced in the rat-to-mouse species combination by using a relatively nontoxic, nonmyeloablative conditioning regimen. However, natural antibodies (NAbs) against Galα1,3Gal (Gal) pose an additional major barrier to pig-to-human vascularized xenograft acceptance. Methods. To determine whether the mixed chimerism approach could also overcome this humoral barrier, T cell-depleted rat (GalT +/+ ) bone marrow cells (BMC) were transplanted to α1,3-galactosyltransferase deficient (GalT -/- ) mice conditioned with a nonmyeloablative regimen, consisting of transient T cell and natural killer (NK) cell depletion, 3 Gy whole body irradiation, and 7 Gy thymic irradiation. Results. By giving a high dose (180 × 10 6 ) of rat BMC, persistent mixed chimerism could be induced in GalT -/- mice, although the level of donor-type hematopoietic repopulation declined over time. Induction of mixed chimerism was associated with a rapid disappearance of anti-Gal and anti-rat NAb in the sera. Both anti-Gal Ab-producing cells and B cells with receptors recognizing Gal were undetectable in mixed chimeras, even when the chimerism levels declined, suggesting that a very low level of chimerism could effectively maintain B-cell tolerance to Gal, probably by clonal deletion and/or receptor editing. Mixed chimeras accepted subsequently transplanted donor-type rat hearts (>100 days) without immunosuppressive therapy, whereas delayed vascular and even hyperacute rejection of rat hearts occurred in conditioned control GalT -/- mice. Cellular rejection occurred by 5-6 days in conditioned control wild-type mice. Conclusions. These findings demonstrate that induction of mixed chimerism with a nonmyeloablative regimen can prevent vascularized xenograft rejection by cellular and anti-Gal Ab-dependent pathways in GalT +/+ -to-GalT -/- species combinations.
