“…• Molecular disturbance associated with inflammation and/or injury is stereotyped: molecules 'travel in herds' 65 • ABMR is frequently C4d negative 5,53 • ABMR is the main cause of renal transplant loss 5,46 • Some but not all TCMR, ABMR and graft loss is due to non-adherence 47 • The molecular landscape of TCMR has identified a potential role of checkpoints and T-cell exhaustion 66 • TCMR occurring >10 years after transplantation is rare despite the persistence of ABMR 46 • A molecular classifier for TCMR has been developed 17 • The molecular landscape of ABMR has identified a potential role of natural killer cells and CD16a 67 , and has revealed similar mechanisms in kidney and heart transplants 112 • TCMR and ABMR share mechanisms, particularly related to IFNγ-mediated effects 83 • Donor age is a risk factor in early ABMR 6 • A molecular classifier for ABMR has been developed 55,100 • The molecular landscape of AKI in transplantation has been defined 54 • The molecular landscape of TA/IF has identified a new model for response to wounding and fibrosis progression 68 • Transcripts associated with immunoglobulins 90 and mast cells 91 are associated with TA/IF • A TCMR-like process is often present in polyoma virus nephropathy 17 • TCMR is rarely present in biopsy samples with isolated intimal arteritis (identified by v-lesions) with no interstitial inflammation 10,83 • Regression equations using actual lesion scores improves histologic prediction 105 • ABMR can be diagnosed at times without knowing that donor-specific antigen is positive 7 • ABMR is heterogeneous, with various phenotypes (peritubular capillaritis and glomerulitis, chronic glomerulopathy, or both) 78 • FOXP3 expression is associated with inflammation but not with favourable outcomes 117 • A molecular risk classifier predicts progression more accurately than does conventional histological features 42 • Collagen synthesis does not cause TA/IF; rather this feature simply reflects wound repair 68 • TCMR does not programme late graft loss 46 • Molecular changes that occur in AKI can continue and be found in kidney biopsy samples with progressive TA/IF 68,88 ABMR, antibody-mediated rejection; AKI, acute kidney injury; MMDx, molecular microscope diagnostic system; TA/IF, tubular atrophy and interstitial fibrosis; TCMR, T-cell-mediated rejection.…”
