Posttransplant major histocompatibility complex class I chain-related gene A antibodies and long-term graft outcomes in a multicenter cohort of 779 kidney transplant recipients.

abstract：:Exposure to the equine-derived polyclonal antithymocyte preparation, ATGAM, frequently elicits human anti-ATGAM antibody formation. The influence of concomitant immunosuppressants on this antiantibody response has not been established. We therefore evaluated IgG antibody formation to ATGAM in 47 patients receiving ATG...
