Blocking C3a/C5a-Receptor Signaling Promotes Induction and Stability of Murine and Human Alloreactive Regulatory T Cells
Immunology Institute, Mount Sinai School of Medicine, New York, NY
Adoptive transfer of CD4+Foxp3+ regulatory T cells (Treg) has potential for promoting transplantation tolerance but is limited by the scarcity of thymic-derived Treg and the…2013 American Transplant Congress
Pregnancy Outcomes in Solid Organ Transplant Recipients with Exposure to Sirolimus
The purpose of this study was to describe pregnancy outcomes with exposure to sirolimus. Data were collected by the National Transplantation Pregnancy Registry (NTPR) via…2013 American Transplant Congress
Abnormal Distribution of B-Cell Populations Associated with Impaired Regulatory Functions in Chronic Antibody Mediated Rejection
Chronic antibody (Ab) mediated rejection (cAMR) represents the major problem in renal transplantation. The aim of our study was to analyze B lymphocyte (LB) distribution…2013 American Transplant Congress
Normothermic In Vivo Graft Perfusion Decreases the Risk of Hepatocellular Carcinoma Recurrence in a Donation-after-Cardiac-Death (DCD) Rat Liver Transplantation Model
Background: Liver transplantation from DCD donors is associated to ischemia/reperfusion (IR) lesions, which may increase the risk of post-transplant hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) recurrence. Normothermic graft…2013 American Transplant Congress

Combination of Renal Dysfunction Plus Proteinuria at One Year Is a Strong Predictor of Early Graft Loss after Renal Transplantation. A National Spanish Study, The
The aim of the study was to analyze the possible detrimental effect of renal dysfunction (serum creatinine SCr) and proteinuria (>300 mg/day) on graft loss…2013 American Transplant Congress
Blocking CD47 Reduces Ischemia Reperfusion Injury and Improves Kidney Transplantation Outcomes
Ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI) contributes to delayed graft function, inflammation and graft loss. Many components of IRI are ameliorated by nitric oxide (NO) signaling. The…
