Role of blood myeloid and plasmacytoid dendritic cells in chronic renal failure and kidney transplantation.

Title page, table of contents and abstract only. The complete thesis in print form is available from the University of Adelaide Library. / This study demonstrates that dendritic cell (DC) defects are common in chronic renal failure, dialysis and transplant recipients and this is likely to contribute to their underlying immune deficiency and high risk of infections and malignancies. Simple and effective clinical strategies (e.g. improvement in dialysis efficiency) which aim to correct DC deficiencies could potentially lead to direct improvement in patient outcome. / http://proxy.library.adelaide.edu.au/login?url= http://library.adelaide.edu.au/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?BBID=1277089 / Thesis (Ph.D.) -- University of Adelaide, School of Medicine, 2006
