    Abstract
  • Early diagnosis and treatment of rejection after kidney transplantation play a critical role in alleviating allograft injury. Detection of donor-derived cell-free DNA (dd-cfDNA) could be performed based on the next-generation sequencing and other techniques. The content of DNA fragments derived from necrotic and apoptotic donor kidney tissues in circulating body fluids could be determined by concentration and absolute quantitative methods, which has application potential in monitoring allograft injury in clinical practice. Compared with traditional serum creatinine and other indicators, dd-cfDNA detection may monitor allograft injury from several weeks to months in advance, providing a "time window" for clinical treatment and delaying graft failure. Along with deepening research of dd-cfDNA in recent years, dd-cfDNA has captivated widespread attention due to its non-invasiveness, high sensitivity and real-time evaluation of therapeutic effect. In this article, current study evidence and conclusions related to multidimensional application of dd-cfDNA detection in diagnosis and treatment of kidney transplantation were reviewed, and the future research and clinical application direction of dd-cfDNA were discussed, aiming to provide reference for widespread application of dd-cfDNA detection in clinical practice in China.
