Immunologically privileged sites are locations in the body, such as the brain, that do not mount an immune response against tissue allografts due to physical barriers and immunosuppressive cytokines.
Los sitios inmunológicamente privilegiados son áreas del cuerpo, como el cerebro, que no montan una respuesta inmune a aloinjertos debido a barreras físicas y a la presencia de citocinas inmunosupresoras.
