Novel Candidate Markers Characterizing Cellular Senescence in Aged Zero Hour Kidney Biopsies Predict Post Transplant Outcome
Advanced donor age adversely affects allograft outcome following renal transplantation. Candidate genes involved in cell-cycle regulation and telomere shortening have been already described as markers…2013 American Transplant Congress
Toll Like Receptor Signaling Pathway Activated and Inflammation Amplified in Naked Caspase-3 siRNA Preserved Auto-Transplant Porcine Kidneys
Background. In our previous study, naked caspase-3 siRNA infused into the renal artery during cold preservation was effective, but did not protect the auto-transplant kidneys…2013 American Transplant Congress
Mesenchymal Stem Cell Induced In-Vitro Generation of Regulatory T-Cells – Future Novel Cellular Therapy for Tolerance Induction in Transplantation?
Introduction:Regulatory T-cells (Tregs) have recently been recognized as key players in transplantation immunobiology with little knowledge about their source and dose for tolerance induction.We present…2013 American Transplant Congress
Assessing Cell Mediated Immunity (CMI) Status by the ImmuKnow Assay in Renal Transplant Recipients
BACKGROUND: Transplant recipients have a high risk of infection due to overimmunosuppression. However, underimmunosuppression carries with it the risk of rejection. It would be necessary…2013 American Transplant Congress
Antibodies Are Not Necessarily Detrimental to the Graft Survival – Single Centre Experience in Living Donor Renal Transplantation
Introduction: Antibodies are believed to be detrimental to graft survival. We present a cohort of living donor renal transplant (LDRTx) patients who were subjected to…2013 American Transplant Congress
Comparative Ability of Different Metabolic Syndrome Definitions To Predict Major Adverse Cardiovascular Events after Kidney Transplantation
Background: Metabolic syndrome (MS) refers to a clustering of factors that increases cardiovascular risk. There are at least 4 definitions of MS: International Diabetes Federation…2013 American Transplant Congress
Over-Expression of miR-499 within Donor Heart Attenuates Cardiac Allograft Vasculopathy
Cardiac allograft vasculopathy (CAV) is a major limiting factor in the long-term success of heart transplantation. Ischemia-reperfusion injury plays a critical role in initiation of…2013 American Transplant Congress
Novel Monitoring Panel for Tolerance-Inducing Effects of Extracorporal Photopheresis
Goal: Extracorporal photopheresis (ECP) has been used as a therapeutic option for acute and chronic rejection after transplantation. Tolerance-inducing effects of ECP after transplantation are…2013 American Transplant Congress
TLR2 Signaling in Epithelial Cells Initiates Sterile Tissue Inflammation through Recruitment of NK Cells in Renal Ischemia Reperfusion Injury
It is well recognized that damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) released from damaged kidney cells initiate post-ischemic inflammation, an essential step in the progression of kidney…2013 American Transplant Congress
Alemtuzumab for Induction Therapy for Small Bowel Transplantation
IntroductionSmall bowel transplantation can be performed for short bowel syndrome. The ideal immunosuppressive regimen after small bowel transplantation still needs to be defined. Here we…
