Abstract Background and Aims Ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) is an unavoidable
occurrence in kidney transplantation, and the inflammatory response associated with IRI …

Background Early graft loss following kidney transplantation is mainly a result of acute
rejection or surgical complications, while long-term kidney allograft loss is more complex …

Loss of kidney graft function with tubular atrophy (TA) and interstitial fibrosis (IF) causes most
kidney allograft losses. We aimed to identify the molecular pathways involved in IF/TA …

new research in kidney transplantation shows that the combination of fibrosis and
inflammation (confirmed by 1-year protocol biopsy) is associated with reduced graft survival …

Methods. Baseline and 1-year surveillance biopsies from 15 uncomplicated living donor
kidney transplants were subjected to microarray and quantitative reverse transcription …

Many hypothesize that subtle inflammation and immune activity detected in the
intraoperative period are linked to adverse postkidney transplant clinical outcomes. To this …

Ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI) is one of the most important mechanisms involved in
delayed or reduced graft function after kidney transplantation. It is a complex …

Abstract Background and Aims Despite offering superior outcomes for patients with end-
stage kidney disease, kidney transplantation poses significant cardiovascular risks …

Background Proximal tubular dysfunction (PTD) is associated with a decreased long-term
graft survival in renal transplant patients and can be detected by the elevation of urinary …

Aims: To identify the histopathological features of transplant nephrectomy (TN) specimens.
Methods: We performed retrospective analysis of 73 nephrectomies to review the …
