This article needs some work: explanatory detail, mention of the current state of research, and especially considerable links to other articles on immune function.

--- Does not the whole second paragraph in the acute rejection section refer to a liver transplant only? It would make more sense to PAD the transplanted organ to look for signs of rejection?? User:andbir 18 may 2008 —Preceding comment was added at 21:49, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
Um, yes and
Considering that chronic rejection is the leading cause of transplant loss, this section needs to be further developed. I know one should fix rather than whine. I'm not a scientist, but if no one else steps forward to develop the section, I'll take a swing at it.
I once saw a picture of an arm with an approx, 2cm diameter circle of skin transplanted (can't remember where). The first photo showed the skin healing nicely, the second photo, a few days later, showed the skin had gone black as it was rejected. Is it possible to find a photo like that for this article?

"Micrograph showing lung transplant rejection." I am unsure of how the picture in this article shows/illustrates transplant rejection. Could the legend on the picture be more descriptive, or a better picture be found? -- 98.70.131.178 ( talk) 18:38, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
writing style in this article is beyond terrible. those who wrote it seem to be functionally illiterate - polluted with jargon, confusing, using synonyms in the same paragraph, inserting irrelevant info to obscure the point, missing relevant information; in short, total trash.

Hello Wikipedia,
My name is Caleb Edwards, a 4th year medical student at UCSF School of Medicine, embarking on journey to update the Wikipedia article on ‘Transplant Rejection’ over the next three weeks.
The plan is to overhaul the page with the following structure that will hopefully be more useful for the non-medical consumer who will be choosing to read up on this topic.
Transplant Rejection
Lead Summary: Summary in ~2 paragraphs
Types of transplant rejection: Each section will have subsections on definition, causes/mechanism, example w/symptoms from a singular organ (eg. Chronic rejection in lung transplant)
Treatment
Prevention

Hi, I think "While these antibodies preformed antibodies" is wrong, but I'm not sure what would actually make sense. Should it be "While these preformed antibodies?" Ϣere SpielChequers 12:05, 18 June 2023 (UTC)
