  • 2017 American Transplant Congress

    Elevated Donor HbA1C Confers Impaired Overall Survival Following Renal Allotransplantation in Recipients of Allografts from Donors with Diabetes Mellitus: A National Analysis.

    M. Mulvihill, B. Yerokun, R. Davis, A. Barbas, M. Hartwig.

    Surgery, Duke University Medical Center, Durham, NC

    Introduction: Donor diabetes mellitus (DM) is a risk factor for impaired outcomes following renal transplant. Donor DM is factored into the Kidney Donor Risk Index…

    Lymph Node Stromal Laminins Differentially Regulate T Cell Activation.

    T. Simon, J. Bromberg.

    University of Maryland, Baltimore

    Background:Our recent work demonstrated that laminins α4β1γ1 and α5β1γ1, components of the lymph node (LN) stroma, are differentially regulated. Tolerance is associated with relatively higher…

    CTLA4Ig Suppresses Memory Responses to HLA-A2+ Skin Grafts in a Mouse Model of Allosensitization by Reducing CD138+ Plasma Cells.

    G. Wu, I. Kim, N.-N. Chai, S. Jordan, A. Klein.

    Comprehensive Transplant Center, Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, Los Angeles, CA

    Purpose: In previous studies we demonstrated that CTLA4Ig suppresses de novo T-cell activation through blocking CD28 co-stimulation and attenuates recall alloantibody responses following re-exposure to…

    Geographic Disparities in Access to Deceased Donor Kidney Transplant.

    S. Gustafson,1 A. Wey,1 B. Thompson,1 A. Massie,2 S. Zhou,2 N. Salkowski,1 D. Segev,1,2 S. Gentry,1,3 J. Snyder.1

    1Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients, Minneapolis; 2Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore; 3U.S. Naval Academy, Annapolis

    In 2015, SRTR was asked by HRSA to investigate geographic disparities in access to deceased donor kidney transplant. To account for the potential impact of…

    The Impact of Delayed Graft Function on Long Term Graft Survival Adjusted for Donor Kidney Quality Assessed by the KDPI.

    L. Lehner, F. Halleck, D. Khadzhynov, E. Schrezenmeier, M. Dürr, K. Budde, O. Staeck.

    Nephrology Charite Campus Mitte, Charite Universitaetsmedizin Berlin, Berlin, Germany

    IntroductionDelayed graft function (DGF) is associated with impaired graft survival in kidney transplant recipients. The kidney donor profile index (KDPI) is increasingly evaluated as a…

    Determinants of Severe Interstitial Fibrosis in Kidney Allografts: Major Impact of Circulating Donor-Specific Anti-HLA Antibodies.

    C. Gosset, D. Viglietti, M. Rabant, E. Pillebout, J. Taupin, D. Glotz, C. Legendre, J. Duong Van-Huyen, A. Loupy, C. Lefaucheur.

    Paris Translational Research Center for Organ Transplantation, Paris, France

    Interstitial fibrosis represents a major cause of kidney allograft failure. We investigated the independent contribution of circulating donor-specific anti-HLA antibodies (DSA) in the development of…

    Donor-Derived Nonclassical Monocytes Produce MIP-2 to Recruit Recipient Neutrophils and Cause Ischemia Reperfusion Injury After Lung Transplant.

    S. Chiu,1 Z. Zheng,1 M. Akbarpour,1 R. Fernandez,1 A. McQuattie-Pimentel,1 P. Reyfman,1 K. Anekalla,1 D. Kreisel,2 H. Perlman,1 G. Budinger,1 A. Misharin,1 A. Bharat.1

    1Northwestern University, Chicago; 2Washington University, St Louis

    Purpose: Primary graft dysfunction (PGD), the primary cause of early mortality after lung transplant, is mediated by neutrophils. However, neutrophil depletion may not be clinically…

    Blood and Biopsy Genomic Signatures of Acute Rejection in Liver Transplant Recipients.

    J. Levitsky,1 T. Whisenant,2 S. Kurian,2 S. Rao,1 A. Demetris,3 M. Abecassis.1

    1Northwestern, Chicago; 2The Scripps Research Institute, San Diego; 3University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh

    Background: Biomarker profiles diagnostic of acute rejection (AR) could enhance the diagnosis and management of liver transplant (LT) recipients. Our aim was to identify diagnostic…
