Thymus transplantation for the induction of immune tolerance in kidney transplantation: This study aims to understand how thymus transplantation can induce immune tolerance in recipients of allogeneic kidney transplants to achieve the discontinuation of immunosuppressive therapy. It will evaluate the safety of thymus transplantation, explore the functional output of thymus tissue, investigate the optimal timing for withdrawal of immunosuppressants, and identify key indicators for the reconstruction of immune suppression capacity.
