Not All Cellular Rejections Are the Same: Differences in Early and Late Hepatic Allograft Rejection.
While acute cellular rejection (ACR) after liver transplantation (LT) is not thought to cause long-term graft injury and inferior outcomes, this notion has been challenged…2017 American Transplant Congress
IL-7 Receptor Heterogeneity as a Mechanism for Repertoire Change During Post-Depletional Homeostatic Proliferation and Its Relation to Costimulation Blockade Resistant Rejection.
Department of Surgery, Duke University School of Medicine, Durham, NC
Transplant patients treated with belatacept without depletional induction show high rates of costimulation blockade resistant rejection (CoBRR); this has been associated with CD57+ T cells.…2017 American Transplant Congress
Presence of Anellovirus Nucleic Acid Sequences in Involved Tissue Is Associated with Worse Patient Survival in Post-Transplant Lymphoproliferative Disorder.
Washington University in St Louis School of Medicine, St. Louis
Introduction: PTLD remain a feared complication of organ and tissue transplant, with high morbidity and mortality. While 50-80% of cases are strongly associated with Epstein-Barr…2017 American Transplant Congress
Dysregulated Innate Immune Response Is a Robust Predictor of Allograft Injury and Survival Across All Transplanted Organs.
ObjectiveLate allograft failure is characterized by long-term cumulative effects of subclinical allograft injury. An optimal biomarker diagnoses acute rejection (AR), correlates with ongoing graft damage,…2017 American Transplant Congress
Identification of Antibody-Mediated Rejection After Kidney Transplantation by Specific MicroRNAs.
Antibody-mediated rejection (ABMR) is the major cause for allograft failure, since a curative therapy is lacking. There are also still challenges in ABMR diagnosis. The…2017 American Transplant Congress
Combining Neural Stem Cell Transplantation with Mixed Hematopoietic Chimerism Promotes Restoration of Self-Tolerance in Established Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis.
Surgery, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, MA
Multilineage mixed hematopoietic chimerism induces tolerance to alloantigens in rodents, large animals and kidney-transplanted patients. Here we combined mixed chimerism with neural stem cell (NSC)…2017 American Transplant Congress
Human Islet-Derived Extracellular Vesicles Stimulate CD14+ Monocytes Resulting in Proinflammatory Cytokine Production.
Department of Surgery, McGill University Health Centre, Montreal, QC, Canada
Introduction: The cellular events involved in the generation of an auto and allo-reactive immune response in recipients of islet transplantation are not well understood. In…2017 American Transplant Congress
Outcome of Living-Donor Kidney Transplantation in Cross-Match-Positive Recipients at a Single Center.
BackgroundLiving-donor kidney transplantation in cross-match (XM)-positive patients remains high-risk and requires an optimal desensitization protocol. We started a desensitization protocol for XM-positive patients in January…2017 American Transplant Congress
Predicting Recurrence Prior to Transplant: The Response of HCC to Chemoembolization.
Purpose:This study assesses imaging response characteristics of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) to chemoembolization (TACE) as a bridge to transplant and the risk of post-transplant…2017 American Transplant Congress
A Multistate Modeling Analysis of Time-Varying CPRA States and Its Impact on Kidney Transplant: A Focus on KAS Implementation.
Background: Highly sensitized kidney transplant candidates are at higher risk of death on the waiting list(WL). OPTN policy change 8(Kidney Allocation System(KAS)) aimed to improve…
