Long Term Outcomes Following Antibody Mediated Rejection (AMR) in Renal Transplant Recipients.
Columbia University, New York.
INTRO: Progress in AMR treatment has improved early graft survival. Since the new kidney allocation system results in more sensitized patients getting transplanted, we expect…2016 American Transplant Congress
Optimizing the Immunogenicity and Immunomodulatory Properties of MSC for Cellular Therapy.
Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) are candidates for immunotherapy after transplantation. MSC have shown to be immunomodulatory and low immunogenic, which is favorable for cellular therapy…2016 American Transplant Congress
Tissue Priming of Plasmacytoid Dendritic Cells Enhances Their Phagocytosis and Lowers the Threshold for Subsequent Toll-Like Receptor 7/9 Activation.
Plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDC) have a pivotal role in clearing viral infections, and can regulate tolerance or immunity depending on their activation status. We have…2016 American Transplant Congress
Hydrogen Sulphide Is an Important Regulator of Erythropoietin Synthesis in Patients with Anemia of Chronic Kidney Disease.
Anemia affects 90% of hemodialysis patients and is a tremendous concern for patients and health care providers. CKD leads to chronic interstitial fibrosis which leads…2016 American Transplant Congress
Circulating miR-215, miR-let-7c miR-154, miR-193a, NR_036506.1 and NR_027669.1 as Biomarkers Predict Fungal Infection in Post-Transplanted Recipients.
Aims: The incidence of fungal infection in post-transplanted patients is 13%-17%, which seriously effecting perioperative survival and increasing their economic burden. We wanted to find…2016 American Transplant Congress
The Epidemiology of Clostridium difficile Infection in a National Kidney Transplant Center.
BackgroundKidney transplant recipients (KTRs) are at increased risk of Clostridium difficile infection (CDI). We aimed to retrospectively describe the epidemiology of CDI in a national…2016 American Transplant Congress
Significance of Preservation Fluid Cultures in Solid Organ Transplantation.
University of Illinois at Chicago, Chicago.
Introduction. The study aim was to determine microbiological characteristics of preservation fluid (PF) cultures in solid organ transplant (SOT) patients and to evaluate their impact…2016 American Transplant Congress
Two-Year Safety Results from the Phase 3b Switching Study of Kidney Transplant Patients with Tremor to LCP-Tacro (STRATO) Study.
Tremor is a common side effect of tacrolimus (tac) correlated with peak-dose drug concentration. Envarsus XR®, a novel, once-daily, extended-release formulation of tac, has a…2016 American Transplant Congress
Low Pretransplant BMI/Weight and Changes in Posttransplant T Cell Exhaustion Levels Are Associated with Viremia/Viral Infection in Pediatric Kidney Transplantation in the First Post-Transplant Year – A Report from the IMPACT Study Consortium.
Viral consequences of immunosuppression (IS) in pediatric(ped)kidney(kid)transplantation(Tx)patients(pts) are not fully known. We prospectively examined the immunologic and infectious (inf) history of 106 ped Tx pts…
