Analysis of the primary factors influencing donor derived cell-free DNA testing in kidney transplantation [PDF]

Frontiers in Immunology
The donor-derived cell-free DNA (ddcfDNA) is found in the plasma and urine of kidney transplant recipients and displays notable potential in diagnosing rejection, specifically antibody-mediated rejection (ABMR).
