The Immunohistochemical Expression of the Von Willebrand Factor: A Potential Tool to Predict Kidney Allograft Outcomes.

Few reports assessed endothelial activation biomarkers in kidney allograft biopsies using immunohistochemistry. This retrospective cohort study evaluated the association between posttransplant outcomes and the immunohistochemistry expression of Caveolin-1, Von Willebrand Factor (Vwf), and T-Cadherin in for-cause biopsies diagnosed as interstitial fibrosis and tubular atrophy of unknown etiology. Samples with antibody-mediated changes were excluded.
