Adaptive response affects early and chronic graft function. Invading CD3+ and ED1+ cells in kidney graft correlate with the severity of ischemic injuries (a, c). The creatininemia after 7 days of reperfusion and fibrosis percentage evaluated at 3 months correlate with the number of lymphocytes invading the tissue at the end of the first week of reperfusion (b, d). r² and Spearman rank are indicated.
