Long-Term Kidney Graft Evolution in Simultaneous Liver-Kidney Transplants with Immunological Risk
*Purpose: There is disagreement about the real impact of anti-HLA sensitization on patient and kidney graft survival in simultaneous liver-kidney transplant (SLKT).*Methods: We reviewed the…2019 American Transplant Congress
Novel Role of Qa-1-Restricted Immunoregulation in Murine Cardiac Transplantation
1Medicine, Brigham and Women's Hospital, Boston, MA, 2Dana-Farbar Caner Institute, Boston, MA
*Purpose: HLA-E is an MHC class-1b molecule that is under-studied in the transplant setting. Recent clinical studies have revealed a robust association between allograft outcome…2019 American Transplant Congress
ZFYVE21 is a Novel Complement-Induced Rab5 Effector Protein Mediating Cardiac Allograft Vasculopathy
*Purpose: Complement promotes vascular inflammation in transplant organ rejection, a process leading to cardiac allograft vasculopathy. In this study, we identify a new Rab5 effector…2019 American Transplant Congress
APRIL-/-/BLyS-/- Deplete Antibody Secreting Cells and Alloantibody Production in Sensitized Antibody Mediated Rejection Model
University of Wisconsin, Madison, WI
*Purpose: Antibody mediated rejection (AMR) is a major cause of kidney allograft failure. APRIL (A proliferation inducing ligand) and BLyS (B Lymphocyte Stimulator) are two…2019 American Transplant Congress
Vaccination And Allosensitization In Solid Organ Transplant Candidates
*Purpose: Clinical practice guidelines recommend vaccinating patients awaiting solid organ transplantation (SOT) against vaccine-preventable infections, but there is little evidence to suggest that vaccination reduces…2019 American Transplant Congress
Variable Glycosylations of Anti-HLA Antibodies Detected with Single Antigen Beads in Kidney Transplant Recipients
*Purpose: Differential glycosylation of Immunoglobulin G (IgG) is known to affect its effector functions by modulating interactions with its binding partners, such as C1q or…2019 American Transplant Congress
Ligation Of Hla Class Il Molecules Disrupts Endothelial Barrier Through Src-dependent Ve-cadherin Destabilization
*Purpose: Microvascular inflammation, vascular permeability, and accumulation of intravascular mononuclear cells are characteristics of acute and chronic antibody-mediated rejection. Vascular endothelial cadherin (VE-Cadherin) is a…2019 American Transplant Congress
Interleukin-27 is Required for Donor Specific Antibody Production in Response to Heart Allograft Transplantation
Inflammation and Immunity, Lerner Research Institute, Cleveland Clinic, Cleveland, OH
*Purpose: Interleukin-27 (IL-27), a member of IL-12 cytokine family, is involved in both pro- and anti-inflammatory immune responses. Previously we reported that B cell derived…2019 American Transplant Congress
Development of De Novo DSA after Kidney Transplant Correlates with Low Quantity of Peripheral Blood “Antibody-Suppressor” CD8+ T Cells
*Purpose: It is well known that CD4+ T cells provide “help” for antibody production in vivo. Our group discovered a novel subset of murine antibody-suppressor…2019 American Transplant Congress
α -1,3-galactosyltransferase Knockout Porcine Tissue And Organ May Reduce The Risks Of Antibody Mediated Rejection Via Less Rhesus Igm Cross-reactivity.
Duke Transplant Center, Durham, NC
*Purpose: Previously, we observed that sera from rhesus macaques contained preformed antibodies against wild type (WT) swine splenocytes. In the context of xenotransplantation, preformed xenoantibodies…
