Urinary-cell mRNA profile and acute cellular rejection in kidney allografts.
BACKGROUND The standard test for the diagnosis of acute rejection in kidney transplants is the renal biopsy. Noninvasive tests would be preferable. METHODS We prospectively collected 4300 urine… Expand

Messenger RNA for FOXP3 in the urine of renal-allograft recipients.
BACKGROUND The outcome of renal transplantation after an episode of acute rejection is difficult to predict, even with an allograft biopsy. METHODS We studied urine specimens from 36 subjects with… Expand

Noninvasive detection of renal allograft inflammation by measurements of mRNA for IP-10 and CXCR3 in urine.
BACKGROUND We explored the hypothesis that measurements of mRNA encoding interferon-inducible protein-10 (IP-10) or the chemokine receptor CXCR3 in urinary cells offer a noninvasive means of… Expand

Acute renal failure due to rifampicin: a study of 25 patients.
BACKGROUND Acute renal failure (ARF) caused by rifampicin typically occurs on intermittent administration. There are isolated case reports and only one series reported in the literature. Systematic… Expand

MicroRNAs: Small RNAs With Big Effects
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are evolutionarily conserved, small (∼20-25 nucleotides), single-stranded molecules that suppress the expression of protein-coding genes by translational repression, messenger RNA… Expand
