Increased Rac2 mRNA expression in peripheral blood during human corneal graft rejection
Huang MC et al. - Study demonstrated that the expression of Rac2 mRNA was upregulated in the peripheral blood of patients experiencing corneal transplantation rejection compared to those patients who had no rejection episodes. In addition, three genes, RhoA, paxillin, and CD18, showed decreased expression in rejecting patients. cDNA array technology provides a potentially useful approach to identify novel genes that might participate in pathogenic pathways during corneal graft rejection.
