Your friend wants to know why patients that receive organ transplants have to take immune-suppressing drugs for the rest of their lives. You tell her that:

1.The transplanted organ will only work properly with the immune-suppressing drugs. 2.The MHC markers of the donor organ do not match the patient, so the patient’s immune system will reject the organ without the medication. 3.The donor organ has a different MHC marker, which will attack and kill the patient’s cells if the medication isn’t taken regularly. 4.The medication is needed so the patient will not get sick after the transplant, which could cause the new organ to not function properly.
