Abstract
We demonstrated that changes in SERCA2a cardiac tissue and serum levels occur in cardiac allograft rejection. Our findings suggest that SERCA2a concentration assessment may be a relatively simple, non-invasive test for heart transplant rejection, showing a strong capability for detection that improves progressively as rejection grades increase.
