Characterizing pre-transplant and post-transplant kidney rejection risk by B cell immune repertoire sequencing. [PDF]
Studying immune repertoire in the context of organ transplant provides important information on how adaptive immunity may contribute and modulate graft rejection. Here we characterize the peripheral blood immune repertoire of individuals before and after
