OPO-Wide Waitlist Size and Deceased Donor Kidney Transplant Rate.
1JHU, Baltimore, MD; 2USNA, Annapolis, MD
Substantial geographic disparity exists in access to deceased donor kidney transplantation (DDKT); mechanisms for the disparity are not fully understood. The relationship between OPO-wide waitlist…2017 American Transplant Congress
Outcomes of Deceased Donor Kidney Transplantation in Elderly Recipients Aged 70 Years and Older.
Introduction: The number of patients aged 70 years and older receiving renal replacement therapy is increasing. There is uncertainty regarding whether listing for deceased donor…2017 American Transplant Congress
Human Transitional B Cell Cytokine Profile Predicts Renal Allograft Rejection and Clinical Course.
In Kidney Transplant Recipients (KTRs), non-invasive predictive biomarkers that allow early intervention are limited. Here we report findings from a prospective longitudinal study using B…2017 American Transplant Congress
Targeting JAK-STAT Pathways with Tofacitinib Provides a Novel Approach for Conditioning in Allogeneic BMT Recipients.
Institute for Cellular Therapeutics, University of Louisville, Louisville, KY
Hematopoietic chimerism achieved by bone marrow transplantation (BMT) induces donor-specific tolerance to solid organ grafts. We previously demonstrated that by targeting recipient immune cells (T,…2017 American Transplant Congress
Contribution of γδ T-Cell Subsets and IL-17A Release to Ischemia Reperfusion Injury (IRI) and Kidney Allograft Rejection in Mice.
Ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI) contributes to acute allograft injury and to delayed graft function (DGF) which is a trigger for acute rejection after kidney transplantation…2017 American Transplant Congress
Ischemia Reperfusion Injury (IRI) Causes Local Release of Free Heme Which Aggravates Inflammation and Contributes to Delayed Graft Function.
Ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI) is relevant in solid organ transplantation and contributes to delayed graft function (DGF). In this study, release of free heme after…2017 American Transplant Congress
Subclinical Rejections in Kidney Transplant Recipients Treated with Direct Acting Antiviral Agents for Hepatitis C Treatment within 1 Year of Transplant.
Direct acting antiviral agents (DAA) have revolutionized the management of Hepatitis C virus (HCV) positive kidney transplant recipients (KTR). The optimal timing of DAA therapy…2017 American Transplant Congress
Poor Predictability of Quantiferon-TB Assay in Recipients and Donors for Tuberculosis Development After Kidney Transplantation in an Intermediate-TB-Burden Country.
Background. Tuberculosis (TB) is a common opportunistic infection after kidney transplantation (KT). Quantiferon-TB Gold In-Tube test (QFT) is widely used for assessing latent TB; however,…2017 American Transplant Congress
Poor Outcome of Polyomavirus -Associated Nephropathy with Glomerular Parietal Epithelial Cells Infected by Polyomavirus.
Background: Bowman's capsular epithelium infected by polyomavirus(Py) in polyomavirus -associated nephropathy (PyVAN) is infrequent and considered as the advanced stage of the disease. The aim…
