Intragraft Antiviral-Specific Gene Expression as a Distinctive Transcriptional Signature for Studies in Polyomavirus-Associated Nephropathy
3 May 2016
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Polyomavirus nephropathy (PVAN) is a common cause of kidney allograft dysfunction and loss. To identify PVAN-specific gene expression and underlying molecular mechanisms, we analyzed kidney biopsies with and without PVAN. METHODS: The study included 168 posttransplant renal allograft biopsies (T cell-mediated rejection [TCMR] = 26, PVAN = 10, normal functioning graft = 73, and interstitial...
