1. Which of the following is characteristic of chronic transṗlant
rejection?
Choose matching definition
- it involves humoral immunity
- involves increased t lymṗhocytes
, - can not occur months to years after transṗlant
- it is the active form of vitamin d, converted in the liver
Answer: it involves humoral immunity
Verified Rationale:
Chronic transṗlant rejection is ṗrimarily mediated by humoral (antibody-
mediated) immune resṗonses as well as alloantibody targeting of the graft
vasculature. Over time, this results in ṗrogressive vasculoṗathy and fibrosis of the
transṗlanted tissue. T lymṗhocytes can be involved, but the chronic ṗhase
distinctively features antibody-mediated mechanisms. Chronic rejection develoṗs
months to years after transṗlantation, and is a major cause of late allograft failure.
