The transfer of cells, tissues or organs is transplantation and transplantation rejection occurs when the immune system of a person detects that antigens on the cells of the organ are vary from each other or mismatched, and when this mismatching occurs it can trigger a blood transfusion reaction.

There are two types of adaptive immunity are humoral immunity and cell-mediated immunity. These both types of immunity can cause problem in organ transplantation.
