Abstract Non-invasive biomarkers are promising tools for improving kidney allograft rejection monitoring, but their clinical adoption requires more evidence in specifically designed studies. To address this unmet need, we designed the EU-TRAIN study, a large prospective multicentric unselected cohort funded by the European Commission. Here, we included consecutive adult patients who received a kidney allograft
This three-day course provides an update on renal transplantation for nephrology clinicians, trainee renal transplant surgeons and nurses specialising in this field.

Infections pose a challenge for individuals who have undergone solid organ transplants, often leading to numerous hospitalisations post-surgery and negatively affecting the survival rates of both patients and their transplanted organs alike. Enhancing the prevention and control of diseases following transplantation is vital, for enhancing the overall quality of care provided to transplant recipients. Designed
In the latest issue of Transplant International, Cortes Garcia and colleagues (France) examined bulk RNA sequencing of kidney biopsies. They identified novel genes associated with antibody-mediated rejection and T cell-mediated rejection, which could provide a new source of targets for drug design and repurposing.
