Isograft
Term · Chemistry · MLC-T-CHM-006188
A tissue or organ transplant between genetically identical individuals, such as identical twins or highly inbred animals. Due to the genetic similarity, an isograft typically does not elicit an immune rejection response from the recipient. This type of graft is also known as a syngeneic graft.
