HLA Identical or Haploidentical Combined Kidney and Bone Marrow Transplantation for Multiple Myeloma with End-Stage Renal Failure.
1Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston; 2Columbia University, New York.
Patients with multiple myeloma (MM) who developed end-stage renal disease (ESRD) are generally not eligible for either kidney transplantation or allogeneic stem-cell transplant. We performed…2016 American Transplant Congress
Long-Lasting Skin Allograft Tolerance Induced and Maintained by Short-Term Vascularized Bone Marrow Transplant in a Mouse Model.
Background: Accumulating evidences indicate that vascularized bone marrow transplantation (VBMT) plays a critical role in inducing tolerance of vascularized composite allografts (VCA). Recipients with long-term…2016 American Transplant Congress
Post Transplantation High-Dose Cyclophosphamide Treatment Promotes Immune Tolerance After Skin, Solid Organ, and Vascularized Composite Allotransplantation.
Background: Developing novel approaches to minimize/avoid immunosuppression by induction of immune tolerance represents the prime task in the field of transplantation. Methods: Murine skin, heart,…2016 American Transplant Congress
Tolerogenic Interactions Between Host CD8+Myeloid Dendritic Cells and Natural Killer T Cells Are Required for Acceptance of Combined Organ and Bone Marrow Transplants After TLI Conditioning.
Combined transplantation of solid organs and bone marrow or hematopoietic progenitor cells has resulted in successful achievement of tolerance in both laboratory animals and in…2015 American Transplant Congress
Rejection of an Allograft Through Non-MHC Antigens Does Not Translate to the Rejection of a Different Allograft from the Same Donor in Mixed Chimeras
We previously showed that tolerance, induced by mixed chimerism in mice, is antigen-specific: tolerance of heart and skin allografts is dependent on Foxp3+ cells that…2015 American Transplant Congress
Regulatory T Cells Expanded by Activated iNKT Cells Facilitate Migration of Donor Dendritic Cells Into the Recipient Thymus and Subsequent Establishment of Clonal Deletion
We previously reported that combination therapy using liposomal α-galactosylceramide (lipo-αGC) and anti-CD154 mAb could expand regulatory T cells (Tregs) in vivo through activation of the…2015 American Transplant Congress
Vascularized Bone Marrow Plays a Critical Role in Inducing Tolerance of Osteomyocutaneous Allografts
Background: Vascularized composite allograft (VCA) that includes medullary bone may provide proposed benefits ofvascularized bone marrow transplantation (VBMT), such as a continuous supply of donor…2015 American Transplant Congress
Effects of Late Kidney Graftectomy in Nonhuman Primates (NHPs) Tolerant of Co-Transplanted Heart and Kidney Allografts
Co-transplantation of donor kidneys and bone marrow enables the induction of tolerance of allogeneic hearts in NHPs. We have previously demonstrated that the state of…2015 American Transplant Congress
Combined Bone Marrow Plus Liver Transplantation in Cynomolgus Monkeys
Columbia Center for Translational Immunology, Columbia University Medical Center, New York, NY.
IntroductionCombined kidney/bone marrow transplantation (CKBMT) induces tolerance in both primates and humans. Since liver is thought to be more tolerogenic than kidney, we hypothesized that…2015 American Transplant Congress
Chimerism for Early Detection of Graft Versus Host Disease in Intestinal Transplantation
Miami Transplant Institute, University of Miami Miller School of Medicine, Miami, FL.
Graft versus host disease (GVHD) is a potentially fatal complication after multivisceral transplantation (MVT). By definition, donor cells must be present in the blood of…
