Donor-derived Cell-free DNA Kinetics Post-kidney Transplant Biopsy

Background. Donor-derived cell-free DNA (dd-cfDNA) has generated interest as a biomarker for kidney injury including transplant (KT) rejection. It is possible that the KT biopsy procedure can cause the release of dd-cfDNA, therefore affecting the reliability of this assay in the postbiopsy period. W...
