Xenograft survival within the pCTLA4-IgG4 modified imDC treated group (61.0064.20 days, *P,0.01) was considerably longer than that in the islet only xenograft group (7.8361.47 days), IgG4 modified imDC treated group (31.3362.07 days), and unmodified imDC treated group (32.5065.24 days).

Xenograft survival in the pCTLA4-IgG4 modified imDC combined with mCTLA4-Ig treated group (111.8362.71 days, **P,0.01) was significantly longer than that in the mCTLA4-Ig combined with mCTLA4-Ig treated group (21.6761.75 days), along with the pCTLA4-IgG4 modified imDC combined with Adv-IgG4 treated group (60.1761.94 days).
