Graft rejection in pediatric penetrating keratoplasty: Clinical features and outcomes
Oman Journal of Ophthalmology, 2015 Purpose: Early presentation of rejection facilitates early initiation of treatment which can favor a reversible rejection and better outcome. We analyzed the incidence, clinical features including rejection-treatment period and outcomes following graft ...

Acute graft rejection in a COVID-19 patient: Co-incidence or causal association?
Indian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2021 A 32-year-old man with a clear and compact graft following a penetrating keratoplasty 6 years back, developed an episode of acute graft rejection, coinciding with the COVID-19 disease.

Cytokines in Clinical and Experimental Transplantation [PDF]
Mediators of Inflammation, 1994 Allograft rejection is a complex process, which requires interactions between different cell types and a variety of soluble factors, such as cytokines. In this review we discuss the role of cytokines in the induction and effector phases of the rejection ...

Subclass analysis of donor HLA-specific IgG in antibody-incompatible renal transplantation reveals a significant association of IgG4 with rejection and graft failure [PDF]
Transplant International, 2015 Donor HLA-specific antibodies (DSAs) can cause rejection and graft loss after renal transplantation, but their levels measured by the current assays are not fully predictive of outcomes.

Specific tissue graft rejection in earthworms
Transplantation, 1970 Earthworms are capable of destroying antigenic tissues. Autogeneis transplants healed in regularly and remained permanently viable. Xenografts, by contrast, were cicatrized but eventually rejected. Intrafamilial transplants survived longer than interfamilial ones.
