Applications of microarrays to renal transplantation: progress and possibilities.
By rapidly generating global views of gene expression profiles, microarray technology offers a great advantage over traditional methods of studying gene expression. This technology is gaining rapid and widespread use in many areas of science and medicine because it can be easily adapted to study many experimental questions. This article will review the current applications of microarray technology in the field of renal transplantation, and discuss the potential impact of this technology on transplantation medicine.
