Journal ArticleDOI

Understanding the causes of kidney transplant failure: the dominant role of antibody-mediated rejection and nonadherence.

TL;DR: This prospective cohort indicates that many actual failures after indication biopsies manifest phenotypic features of antibody‐mediated or mixed rejection and also underscores the major role of nonadherence.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antibody-mediated microcirculation injury is the major cause of late kidney transplant failure.

TL;DR: The major cause of late kidney transplant failure is antibody‐mediated microcirculation injury, but detection of this phenotype requires new diagnostic criteria.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular diagnosis of antibody-mediated rejection in human kidney transplants.

TL;DR: It is concluded that microarray assessment of gene expression can assign a probability of ABMR to transplant biopsies without knowledge of HLA antibody status, histology, or C4d staining, and predicts future failure.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Randomized Trial of Bortezomib in Late Antibody-Mediated Kidney Transplant Rejection.

TL;DR: This trial failed to show that bortezomib prevents GFR loss, improves histologic or molecular disease features, or reduces DSA, despite significant toxicity, and reinforces the need for systematic trials to dissect the efficiency and safety of new treatments for late ABMR.
Journal ArticleDOI

A new diagnostic algorithm for antibody-mediated microcirculation inflammation in kidney transplants

TL;DR: Any degree of microcirculation inflammation in late kidney transplant biopsies strongly indicates presence of DSA and predicts progression to graft failure and a decision tree was built and validated to predict DSA.
