Graft-Derived Cell-Free DNA Quantification following Liver Transplantation Using Tissue-Specific DNA Methylation and Donor-Specific Genotyping Techniques: An Orthogonal Comparison Study

Abstract excerpt

Background: Graft-derived cell-free DNA (gdcfDNA) analysis has shown promise as a non-invasive tool for monitoring organ health following solid organ transplantation. A number of gdcfDNA analysis techniques have been described; however, the majority rely on sequencing or prior genotyping to detect donor-recipient mis-matched genetic polymorphisms. Differentially methylated regions of DNA can be used to identify...
