Immune Response to Kidney and Pancreas Self-Antigens Are Associated With Antibody Mediated Rejection in Simultaneous Kidney Pancreas Transplants
Background: Simultaneous kidney-pancreas transplantation (SKP Tx) is performed as treatment option for type-1 diabetes with end stage kidney diseases. Though allograft survival was improved with…2015 American Transplant Congress
Isotype Switching of Antibodies to Vimentin Following Transplantation Is Associated With Development of Transplant Glomerulopathy Following Renal Transplantation
Background: Immune responses to tissue restricted self antigens have been proposed to play a role in transplant glomerulopathy (TG). The goal of this study is…2015 American Transplant Congress
Bortezomib Treatment in Antibody Mediated Rejection After Kidney Transplantation
BackgroundSeveral studies demonstrated bortezomib therapy for antibody-mediated rejection (AMR) in renal transplants. However, the treatment efficacy according to target antigen or occurrence time of AMR…2015 American Transplant Congress
Outcomes After Listing for Kidney Transplantation in Adults Aged 70 Or Over
Renal Unit, Manchester Royal Infirmary, Manchester, Cheshire, United Kingdom.
Background:Low likelihood of listing and subsequent deceased donor transplantation has previously been reported for the elderly with additional concerns about patient frailty, morbidity and mortality…2015 American Transplant Congress
IL-17 Production Influenced by Induction Therapy With ATG
Introduction Immune-mediated rejection remains the most important cause of graft failure. Recently, a newly identified CD4+ T cell subset, Th17, distinct from Th1 or Th2,…2015 American Transplant Congress
Progression of Coronary Artery Disease in High-Risk Patients Undergoing Renal Transplantation
Imperial College Renal and Transplant Centre, London, United Kingdom.
Asymptomatic coronary artery disease [CAD] is common in patients with end-stage renal disease [ESRD]. While coronary revascularization prior to transplantation is associated with improved patient…2015 American Transplant Congress
