Statistical analysis of paired observations indicated that RhLA-A,B disparate teeth caused the accelerated rejection of tooth-donor skin grafts placed 21 to 24 mo after tooth allotransplantation, but not at 30 to 34 mo. Teeth transplanted between matched monkeys did not cause the accelerated rejection of skin grafts.
