Important progress has been made in improving short-term outcomes in solid organ
transplantation. However, long-term outcomes have not improved during the last decades …

The introduction into routine diagnostic laboratories of solid phase assays for human
leukocyte antigen (HLA) antibody detection has resulted in the application of new laboratory …

Noninvasive, cost-effective biomarkers that allow accurate monitoring of graft function are
needed in kidney transplantation. Since microRNAs (miRNAs) have emerged as promising …

Chronic renal disease or acute renal injury could result in end-stage renal disease or renal
failure. Sonoporation, induced by ultrasound-targeted microbubble destruction (UTMD), has …

Introduction The gold standard in organ preservation is static cold storage (SCS) using
University of Wisconsin solution (UW). Although it is well-known that there is a finite limit to …

Managing patients with kidney allografts largely depends on biopsy diagnosis which is
based on semiquantitative assessments of rejection features and extent of acute and chronic …

Background Antibody‐mediated rejection (AMR) is characterized histologically by
intracapillary macrophages. Macrophage density may be an alternative method of …

Ever since the first successful kidney transplantation, the occurrence of acute rejection has
been a dominant risk factor for adverse graft outcome, as it is associated with reduced graft …

The pig is an important source of meat production and provides a valuable model for certain
human diseases. MicroRNA (miRNA), which is noncoding RNA and regulates gene …

Antibody‐mediated rejection (AMR) requires specific diagnostic tools and treatment and is
associated with lower graft survival. We prospectively screened C4d in pancreas (n= 35, in …
