Abstract: Skin grafting has been one of the most important approaches for covering burn wounds, however long-term survival of allogeneie or xenogeneic skin graft is currently not successful. How to induce immune tolerance for life-time survival of allogeneic or xenogeneie skin graft is still remote objective to be solved. However, clinicians and scientists in China have worked very hard and made great contribution to this field during the past 50 years, no matter how diffieult it is. They are the re spected pioneers in the understanding of immunological change in "Chinese Method" skin grafting, its local immune tolerance, immunology of pre-treatment of skin graft, etc. Herein, the most outstanding and impressive progresses in immunological responses after skin grafting in the past 50 years in China have been re viewed and presented for memory, for future and for extanding a salute.
