 AB    It has been very tempting to accept the suggestion that the route to
       rejection or tolerance of organ transplants is determined by T-helper
       type 1 and type 2 cells, respectively. Much of the data used to support
       this idea, however, is indirect and therefore cannot be used to imply a
       causal role for either population as suggested. Recent experiments have
       been aimed at further expanding knowledge in this area and conclude that
       the expansion of neither population alone inevitably results in graft
       damage or tolerance.
