Antibodies that are indicative of organ transplant rejection, for example, cardiac or kidney transplant rejection, and of associated pathological conditions, for example, accelerated (or transplant-associated) coronary artery disease (CAD) are identified, as are antigens that bind to such antibodies. The antigens are used in immunoassays to diagnose transplant rejection and associated pathological conditions, and in the treatment of transplant rejection. The antigens and antibodies are particularly useful in the diagnosis and treatment of chronic rejection and associated conditions, especially rapid onset vasculopathy.
