Figure 6: Clinical Diagnostic Scores for ACR and AMR.

Figure 6:

Blood samples are collected in transplant patients during routine surveillance or at the time of clinically suspected rejection. Plasma is isolated, small RNA is extracted, and microRNAs are quantitated. Expression of individual ACR and AMR microRNAs in each sample is determined to calculate the individual patient ACR and AMR score. The distinct ACR and AMR scores allow for initiation of targeted therapy for the subtype of rejection present.
