Donor-Specific Antibodies, C4d and Their Relationship With the Prognosis of Transplant Glomerulopathy

Abstract

Transplant glomerulopathy is associated with poor prognosis, independent of the level of graft dysfunction and other chronic histologic changes. This prognosis is similar whether there is evidence of tissue or peripheral alloantibody reactivity. These findings are relevant to the development of clinically meaningful criteria for CAABMR, for its clinical management, and in the future selection of population for clinical trials.
