Immunosuppressants Alter Lymph Node Architecture and Create Distinct Microbiome Footprints
1University of Maryland School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD, 2University of Maryland, Baltimore, MD
*Purpose: There are complex interactions among immunosuppressants, antibiotics, and the gut microbiome on the host immune system. Microbiota can alter lymph node (LN) structure and…2022 American Transplant Congress
Single-Cell Multiomics Defines Tolerogenic Extrathymic Aire-Expressing Cells
*Purpose: The Autoimmune Regulator (Aire) gene, essential for central tolerance through its regulation of tissue-specific antigens in medullary thymic epithelial cells, is also expressed in…2022 American Transplant Congress
Portal Hypertension Inhibits the Antitumor Effect of Liver-Resident NK Cells Through IL-33 Signal
Hiroshima University, Hiroshima, Japan
