Novel antibodies associated with unexplained loss of renal allografts.
Using an endothelial/epithelial hybrid cell line, three different non-HLA antibody types have been identified by flow cytometry in patients who have rapidly rejected multiple renal allografts. These antibodies may be classified as anti-endothelial-monocyte, anti-activated endothelial cell, or anti-epithelial cell.
