High soluble HLA‐DQB2 levels in posttransplant serum are associated with kidney graft dysfunction

HLA‐DQB2 is a gene of limited polymorphism, with unknown function that presents at least two transcript variants: v1, which encodes the full‐length beta‐chain, and v2, which lacks exon 4 and could give rise to a soluble protein. We previously showed a strong correlation between high v2 expression in...

Description
Summary:HLA‐DQB2 is a gene of limited polymorphism, with unknown function that presents at least two transcript variants: v1, which encodes the full‐length beta‐chain, and v2, which lacks exon 4 and could give rise to a soluble protein. We previously showed a strong correlation between high v2 expression in preimplantation biopsies (PIB) of kidneys from young (18‐ to 49‐year olds) but not from old, deceased donors and 1‐year posttransplant low (estimated glomerular filtration rate
