Summary

The primary objective of this exploratory study is to identify genes associated with acute rejection in liver transplant patients. To this end, a panel of acute rejection indicator genes (both humoral and cell-mediated) will be selected from results published in the literature and applied to biological material derived from biopsies. The secodnary objective is to identify genes associated with the diagnosis of humoral acute rejection and those associated with the diagnosis of cell-mediated acute rejection.
