Immune repertoire profiling reveals that clonally expanded B and T cells infiltrating diseased human kidneys can also be tracked in the blood

<p>Recent advances in high-throughput sequencing allow for the competitive analysis of the human B and T cell immune repertoire. In this study we compared Immunoglobulin and T cell receptor repertoires of lymphocytes found in kidney and blood samples of 10 patients with various renal diseases based on next-generation sequencing data.</p>
