Molecular evidence of injury and inflammation in normal and fibrotic renal allografts one year posttransplant.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Recipient antidonor cytotoxic T-cell activity has been associated with graft loss and acute rejection in renal allograft recipients. The role of immunologic mechanisms in the development of chronic graft rejection is controversial. We analyzed all living related renal transplants performed at Children's Hosp...
