Abstract
The authors of a new study suggest that the proinflammatory state of acute rejection combined with the use of T-cell-depleting antibody therapy might explain the increased risk of cancer after kidney transplantation. However, their findings do not fully support this conclusion; use of T-cell-depleting antibodies alone is likely to increase cancer risk.Entities:
