The human leukocyte antigen (HLA) system plays a critical role in transplant immunology, influencing outcomes through various immune-mediated rejection mechanisms. Hyperacute rejection is driven by preformed donor-specific antibodies (DSAs) targeting HLAs, leading to complement activation and graft loss within hours to days. Acute rejection typically occurs within six months post-transplantation, involving cellular and humoral responses, including the formation of de novo DSAs.

Background: Plasma metabolites could be suitable as predictive biomarkers for cardiovascular pathologies or death, thereby improving the prediction of protein biomarkers. The release of acylcarnitines may be altered after coronary artery disease (CAD) in subjects with recurrent clinical outcomes, and this could be used as a prognosis tool.
Methods: Patients with stable coronary artery disease (SCAD) who had suffered an acute coronary syndrome 6-9 months before were followed for up to 4.

Background: non-syndromic dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is found to correlate with a genetic cause in 30-40 % of cases. The identification of a causative gene variant can guide treatment options and cascade testing of at-risk family members. Cardiomyopathy multigene panels are routinely used to identify the genetic cause, but often detect variants of uncertain significance (VUS).

Background: Multiplex genetic testing is recommended when treating nonsmall cell lung cancer. A certain percentage of test failures in RNA assays owing to poor surgical specimen quality have been documented, and fixation failure is a possible cause. At our institution, sheet-like fixation is performed to reduce fixation time.

Background: Systemic inflammation plays a crucial role in the development and progression of chronic heart failure (CHF) across all phenotypes. The continuous release of pro-inflammatory cytokines causes muscle atrophy and adipocyte breakdown, ultimately resulting in cachexia. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are emerging as potential biomarkers associated with cachexia, as they indirectly regulate muscle and fat tissue metabolism.
