Abstract

The significance of noninvasive techniques to the early diagnosis of acute rejection in kidney transplants remains elusive. In this study, we examined whether an early posttransplant increase in serum- and urine-soluble interleukin (IL) 2 receptor (sIL-2R) and IL-6 levels predicted acute rejection. Sequential determinations of serum and urine sIL-2R and IL-6 were performed in the first 30 postoperative days in 40 renal transplant patients. Changes during the posttransplant period observed in 26 patients who had one or more episodes of acute rejection (group A) were compared with those recorded in 14 patients who did not experience acute rejection of their graft (group B). Serum sIL-2R was higher than normal in patients of groups A and B without statistical differences between the two groups. In the first 3 days after transplantation, urinary sIL-2R was higher than normal in group A but not in group B. Urinary sIL-2R at days 2 and 3 was significantly higher (P<0.05) in group A than in group B. In the first 5 days after transplantation, urinary IL-6 was persistently higher than normal in group A, whereas it progressively decreased to normal value on day 4 in group B. Sudden increases (doubling within 24 hr) in urine IL-6 preceded...Continue Reading

Allogenic & Autologous Therapies

Allogenic therapies are generated in large batches from unrelated donor tissues such as bone marrow. In contrast, autologous therapies are manufactures as a single lot from the patient being treated. Here is the latest research on allogenic and autologous therapies.
