Skin cancer cells with donor genotype have been identified in allogeneic transplant patients; however, the donor contribution to the recipient's epithelial malignancy remains to be established. In this issue of the JCI, Verneuil et al. provide the first evidence for donor contribution to the malignant epithelium of skin squamous cell carcinoma in a kidney transplant recipient. This case report may have important implications for cancer research and clinical care of long-surviving kidney transplant patients.
在同种异体移植患者中已鉴定出具有供体基因型的皮肤癌细胞;然而,供体对受者上皮恶性肿瘤的贡献仍有待确定。在本期 JCI 中,Verneuil 等人提供了首例证据,证明供体对肾移植受者皮肤鳞状细胞癌的恶性上皮有贡献。这一病例报告可能对癌症研究和长期存活的肾移植患者的临床护理具有重要意义。
