Significant differences compared to control kidney after adjustment for multiple comparisons with the Dunn’s test are indicated with

*p<0.05,

**p<0.01,

***p<0.001.

Significant differences of allografts compared to isografts are indicated with

#p<0.05,

##p<0.01.

MRI data of each individual animal is provided in S1 Table. T2 difference represents the difference between T2-relaxation time in inner stripe of the outer medulla (ISOM) and the renal cortex.
