Clinical utility of C3d binding donor ‐specific anti‐human leukocyte antigen antibody detection by single antigen beads after kidney transplantation—a retrospective study
This study evaluated the relationship of the complement binding capacity of post‐transplant de novo anti‐human leukocyte antigen (HLA) antibodies with subsequent clinical outcome. Stored sera from 265 recipients previously identified as having de novo DSA were retested for DSA and their C3d binding capacity using Luminex‐based solid‐phase assays. Most recipients had anti‐HLA class II‐reactive DSA (class I = 12.5%, class II = 68.7%, class I and class II = 18.9%). The recipients that had C3d binding DSA (67.5%) had a significantly higher incidence of antibody‐mediated rejection and any rejection. They also had ...

Clinical validation of a novel ELISpot ‐based in vitro diagnostic assay to monitor CMV‐specific cell‐mediated immunity in kidney transplant recipients: a multicenter, longitudinal, prospective, observational study
This study aimed to evaluate the suitability of T‐Track® CMV, a novel IFN‐γ ELISpot assay based on the stimulation of peripheral blood mononuclear cells with pp65 and IE‐I CMV proteins, to monitor CMV‐CMI following kidney transplantation. A prospective longitudinal multicenter study was conducted in 86 intermediate‐risk renal transplant recipients. CMV‐CMI, CMV viral load and clinical complications were monitored over six months post‐transplantation. 95% and 88‐92% ELISpot assays were positive pre‐ and post‐transplantation, respectively. CMV‐specific response was reduced following immunosuppressive ...
