CD4+IFN-γ+IL-10+ Regulatory Type 1 Cells Facilitate Prolongation of Graft Survival in Old Recipient Mice Treated with Rapamycin.
Although the elderly represent a rapidly growing population among transplant recipients, age-specific aspects have not been considered sufficiently in clinical trials. Moreover, age-specific effects of…2017 American Transplant Congress
Does Blockade of ICOS/ICOS-L Pathway Act Synergistically with αCD40 Costimulation Pathway Blockade?
University of Maryland School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD
Purpose: Inducible costimulator (ICOS) on T cells enhances basic T cell responses to foreign antigen, and increased ICOS expression is detected in association with pathogenic…2017 American Transplant Congress
Decellularized Rat Liver Scaffolds Support Survival and Metabolic Function of Multilineage Allogenic Cells.
University of Maryland School of Medcine, Baltimore, MD
Background:Organ bioengineering has the potential to completely eliminate the donor organ shortage. Here, we examine the feasibility of a decellularized liver construct to support the…2017 American Transplant Congress
Pre-Transplant Recipient Transcriptomic Profile May Predict Delayed Graft Function (DGF) in Kidney Transplantation.
Background: DGF is associated with a reduced long-term graft survival. Ischemia-reperfusion damage and donors' features have been always considered as key pathogenic factors in this…2017 American Transplant Congress
Performance Comparison of Barcoded Oligos and Standard qPCR on Matched FFPE and RNAlater-Submerged Human Kidney Allograft Samples.
University of California, San Francisco, San Francisco
Background: Gene expression profiling can improve the diagnostic ability of kidney allograft injury. Fresh tissue is the favored study material for transcriptomic analysis due to…2017 American Transplant Congress
Renoprotective Effects of Carbon Monoxide–Releasing Molecule 3 in Ischemia Reperfusion Injury and Cisplatin-Induced Toxicity.
Background: We investigated the effects of a soluble carbon monoxide–releasing molecule (CORM) in cisplatin-induced cytotoxicity and ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI) in vitro.Methods: The effects of…2017 American Transplant Congress
Comparison of Long Term Survival Outcomes for Everolimus (EVR) vs. Mycophenolic Acid (MPA) Immunosuppressive Regimens Post Kidney Transplant.
In the US, MPA in combination with calcineurin inhibitors (CNI, tacrolimus [TAC] or cyclosporine A [CsA]) is the most commonly used maintenance immunosuppressive therapy post…2017 American Transplant Congress
Determinants of Successful Use of Sirolimus in Renal Transplantation.
Sirolimus (SLR) is an established component in the immunosuppressive treatment after renal transplantation.The side effects of SLR differ from other immunosuppressants and may limit its…2017 American Transplant Congress
Effect of Everolimus on the Cardiac Function in Kidney Transplant Recipients.
PURPOSE: In this study, we evaluated the effect of everolimus (EVR), one of the mammalian targets of rapamycin on cardiac function in kidney transplant recipients.METHODS:We…2017 American Transplant Congress
Soluble Human Leukocyte Antigen-G Levels and Prolonged Allograft Survival: A Demographic Analysis.
Human leukocyte antigen-G (HLA-G) is a tolerogenic protein shown to contribute to allograft survival. Dimerized, soluble HLA-G (sHLA-Gd) has been shown to significantly prolong allograft…
