Core Tip Antibody-mediated rejection (AMR) is a significant barrier to successful kidney transplantation, driven primarily by donor-specific alloantibodies. These antibodies activate complement pathways within the transplanted kidney, leading to severe inflammatory responses, endothelial injury, and tissue damage. Understanding the complement system’s critical role in AMR has led to innovative therapies aimed at inhibiting complement activation. Such complement-targeted strategies show potential in reducing inflammation, preventing graft injury, and improving overall graft survival. This review highlights the central contribution of complement activation in AMR, emphasizing therapeutic advancements and the importance of complement inhibition as a promising approach for preventing and managing rejection.
