Single-cell spatial transcriptomics reveal intraglomerular cell activation and ligand-receptor relationships in chronic, active antibody mediated rejection
Chronic active antibody-mediated rejection (CAMR) is a leading cause of late kidney allograft dysfunction, characterized by transplant glomerulopathy involving glomerular endothelial cells (GEC),…
