Pretransplant T cell levels and renal allograft survival

Abstract:
Total rosette forming cell (TRFC) levels were measured in 50 paediatric patients awaiting cadaveric renal transplantation. Preliminary data show a statistically significant difference in allograft survival in patients with low TRFC levels pretransplant as compared with patients with medium or high TRFC levels. Pretransplant TRFC levels may be predictive of a non-responder status and portend a favourable renal allograft outcome.
