From: Genome-wide gene-expression patterns of donor kidney biopsies distinguish primary allograft function
Group–internal clustering of LIV-PF, CAD-PF and CAD-ARF. Group-internal clustering of kidneys from living donors (LIV-PF), cadaveric donor kidneys with primary function (CAD-PF) and ARF (CAD-ARF). The linkage distances, given as 1–Pearson R are denoted. The LIV-PF group is homogenous (a), whereas the CAD-PF group shows a clear split into two subsets, represented as PF groups 1 and 2 (b). Four of the seven PF group 2 members exhibited delayed graft function, although not meeting the strict ARF criteria (a). Those PF group 2 kidneys exhibited similar gene expression pattern as the CAD-ARF kidneys (Figure 1a). The CAD-ARF group represents a homogenous cluster, with the exception of CAD-ARF1.
