The main complication associated with renal graft loss is immune rejection. The gold standard for the diagnosis of renal graft rejection is percutaneous renal biopsy, which is expensive and can lead to complications. Inflammation is one of the main pathogenic pathways in allograft rejection, and urine samples seem to be efficient windows to explore the allograft condition with a high cost-benefit ratio. This study aimed to evaluate the messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) profile expression pattern for interleukin (IL) 2, IL-4, IL-6, IL-8, and IL-10; tumor necrosis factor alfa; gamma interferon; and transforming growth factor β1 in the urine renal cells of patients with a diagnosis of humoral rejection and patients with a diagnosis of normal biopsy. METHODS: An observational, cross-sectional analytical study was performed. All kidney transplants were performed at the Organ Transplant Department between 2018 and 2019. Also, a healthy control with a normal blood test and no apparent infection was included. mRNA from urine samples and biopsies was isolated, and the expression of interleukins was analyzed in PCR real time. Data were analyzed by Shapiro-Wilk and Kruskal-Wallis tests. RESULTS: The proinflammatory IL expression pattern in urine samples of kidney rejection group showed overexpression for IL-8 (P = .0001). No differences were observed in the rest of the interleukins analyzed. When we compared the results in the rejected versus not rejected transplanted patients with a group of apparently healthy subjects, the difference remains consistent. Thus, mRNA of IL-8 could function as a diagnostic tool in cases of chronic damage secondary to fibrosis.Copyright © 2020. Published by Elsevier Inc.
