Urine as liquid gold: the transcriptional landscape of acute rejection defined by urinary cell mRNA profiling of kidney allograft recipients.

Acute rejection signatures are enriched in urinary cells. Urinary cell mRNA profiles are diagnostic and prognostic of acute rejection and could serve as yardsticks of in-vivo immune status. RNA sequencing yields insights into mechanisms of rejection and helps prioritize therapeutic targets. The filtration protocol for home processing of urine may optimize immune surveillance.
