Alloimmune

/ˌæloʊɪˈmjuːn/ adjective

Definition

Describing an immune response where the body reacts against antigens from another individual of the same species, such as rejecting a transplant.

Etymology

From 'allo-' (other) + 'immune' (protected against disease); medical term combining Greek and Latin roots, developed in immunology in the 20th century.

Kelly Says

Alloimmunization is why transplant recipients need immunosuppressive drugs for life—their immune system keeps trying to identify the new organ as an invader, and scientists are working on ways to 'teach' the body to accept it peacefully.
