Zero HLA-DR-mismatched kidneys had statistically comparable 5-year graft survival (71%), to 1-DR-mismatched kidneys (69%) and 2-DR-mismatch...

Human Renal Transplants

Tissues obtained from 34 human renal allografts by biopsy, 1 to 31 months after transplantation, were studied by histologic, immunofluorescence, and immunoferritin techniques. Our purpose was to gain more precise information concerning the localization of immunoglobulins and complement in glomeruli and to describe the associated tubular and vascular changes. 1. Localization of fluorescein-label...
