Impact of pre-existing anti-endothelial antibodies (AECAs) on recipient and graft survival. (a) Patient survival of AECA− group compared with AECA+ group (P=0.185 by log-rank test). (b) Renal graft survival of AECA− group compared with AECA+ group (P=0.323 by log-rank test).

Impact of de novo anti-endothelial antibodies (AECAs) on outcome of renal transplantation. (a) Patient survival of AECA pre−/post+ group compared with AECA pre−/post− group (P=0.034 by log-rank test); (b) renal graft survival of AECA pre−/post+ group compared with AECA pre−/post− group (P=0.044 by log-rank test); (c) acute rejection-free survival of AECA pre−/post+ group compared with AECA pre−/post− group (P=0.044 by log-rank test); (d) graft dysfunction (serum creatinine >1.24mg/dl)-free survival of AECA pre−/post+ group compared with AECA pre−/post− group (P=0.042 by log-rank test).

5. Figure 4
Positive and negative results of anti-endothelial cell antibodies (AECAs) detection by indirect immunofluorescence testing. (a) Positive staining of AECA showed a granular fluorescence in the cytoplasm of the human umbilical veins endothelial cell (HUVEC) culture, whereas nucleus was unstained. (b) Negative staining of AECA. (Original magnification, × 400.)
