Aluminium mobilization following renal allograft transplantation may have an immunomodulatory role by reducing the incidence of graft rejection

Urinary aluminium excretion was prospectively monitored during the first year following first cadaver renal allograft transplantation in 79 consecutive patients. Plasma and urinary aluminium concentrations steadily declined with time. Thirty-five patients had 0–1 episodes of acute graft rejection co...

Zusammenfassung:Urinary aluminium excretion was prospectively monitored during the first year following first cadaver renal allograft transplantation in 79 consecutive patients. Plasma and urinary aluminium concentrations steadily declined with time. Thirty-five patients had 0–1 episodes of acute graft rejection compared to 44 with two or more rejections; more of the former group had been prescribed aluminium-containing phosphate binders (74% versus 56%, P
