Tgm2 mRNA expression. Changes in the expression levels of Tgm2 were assessed by real-time RT-PCR in intravascular leukocytes isolated from control kidneys, renal isografts (Iso), and allografts (Allo) (a) and in total tissue (b) from control and iso- and allografts on day 9 (d9) and day 42 (d42) after transplantation. Data are expressed as arbitrary units (AU), which are normalized to one unit in controls ( per group). Box plots indicate median and percentiles 0, 25, 75, and 100. .
