Title:
B CELL SIGNATURE ASSOCIATED WITH TOLERANCE IN TRANSPLANT RECIPIENTS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2010/138456
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The present invention provides methods for predicting the development of tolerance to a transplant, such as a kidney, using molecular markers that have different expression patterns in tolerant transplant recipients, as compared to non-tolerant or healthy, non-recipient controls.
