Transcriptomics as an Aid in the Histological Diagnosis of Acute Rejection After Liver Transplantation

NCT06734013 · Status: RECRUITING · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 40

No results posted yet for this study

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.

Conditions

  • Rejection; Transplant, Liver

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Molecular diagnostic

RNA will be analysed using a Real-Time PCR expression card (TaqMan Real-Time PCR assay technology - Thermo Fisher Scientific). The analysis will be performed using a Real-Time Light Cycler 480 (Roche). The expression card will be customised for the study, including the genes cxcl9/10, cav-1, rhoj, cdh5, cd96, tnfsf8, il-21r, vcam, klrk1
