Transplant glomerulopathy is a sign of chronic kidney allograft damage. It has a distinct morphology and is associated with poor allograft survival. We aimed to assess the prevalence and clinic-pathologic features of transplant glomerulopathy, as well as determine the functional and histological implications of its severity. We performed a single-centre retrospective observational study during an eight-year per...

Background: Transfusion related acute lung injury (TRALI) is known as transfusion hazard with high morbidity and mortality rate. Mainly HLA class II have been associated with TRALI. Preventive measures are in the exclusion of donor female as they carry any these antibodies. Aim: We study a group of female blood donor with prior history of two or more pregnancies (G2), one (G1) pregnancy and without any pregn...
Allelic differences in gene promoter or codifying regions have been described to affect regulation of gene expression, consequently increasing or decreasing cytokine production and signal transduction responses to a given stimulus. This observation has been reported for interleukin (IL)-10 (-1082 A/G; -819/-592 CT/CA), transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta (codon 10 C/T, codon 25 G/C), tumor necrosis factor (TN...
