Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: In solid organ transplantation, donor-derived immune cells are assumed to decline with time after surgery. Whether donor leukocytes persist within kidney transplants or play any role in rejection is unknown, however, in part because of limited techniques for distinguishing recipient from donor cells. METHODS: Whole-exome sequencing of donor and recipient DNA and single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq)...
