Banff 2013 Classification of Renal Allograft Pathology Is Superior to Banff 2007 in Detecting and Managing Milder and Earlier Cases of Antibody-Mediated Rejection.
The 2013 Banff meeting updated the requirements for the diagnosis of acute/active antibody-mediated rejection (AAMR) in kidney allografts. There has been speculation that the changes…2017 American Transplant Congress
Continuation of Immunosuppression Appears to Protect Against Allosensitization in Patients Listed for a Second Kidney Transplant.
Purpose: The current standard of practice after allograft loss is to discontinue immunosuppression (IS) to decrease complications related to prolonged exposure. There is a paucity…2017 American Transplant Congress
Pro Inflammatory Transitional B (TrB) Cells Characterize Renal Allograft Recipients with DSA and T Cell Mediated Rejection (TCMR).
De novo DSA detected post-renal transplantation is associated with adverse outcomes. We have shown that de novo DSA is strongly associated with TCMR. In this…2017 American Transplant Congress
Dual Targeting with Carfilzomib and Tocilizumab Abrogates Antibody-Mediated Rejection and Prolongs Survival in a Highly Sensitized Rhesus Model of Kidney Transplantation.
Duke University Medical Center, Durham, NC; Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, Los Angeles, CA
Purpose:Sensitized recipients have poor access to kidney transplantation (KT) and worse outcomes when transplanted. We have shown that bortezomib inhibits plasma cells (PCs), but does…2017 American Transplant Congress
TFR:TFH Cell Ratio Correlates with Anti-Donor Germinal Center Reactivity and Donor-Specific Antibody Formation Following Transplantation.
Emory Transplant Center, Emory University School of Medicine, Atlanta, GA
Kidney transplantation is the treatment of choice for patients with end-stage renal disease. Although short-term outcomes are excellent, long-term allograft survival rates remain inadequate. It…2017 American Transplant Congress
The Impact of Belatacept on Anti-HLA Antibodies of Highly Sensitized Kidney Transplant Recipients.
Emory Transplant Center, Atlanta, GA
Background: Anti-HLA antibodies often prevent successful organ transplantation. Interestingly, belatacept limits de novo antibody production within the germinal center, but its impact on long-lived plasma…2017 American Transplant Congress
Using Basiliximab Does Not Increase De Novo DSA Incidence but Reduces Cytomegalovirus Infections and Neoplastic Complications in Non-Sensitized Kidney Transplant Patients.
Background. In kidney transplantation, de novo donor specific antibodies (dnDSA) are associated with antibody-mediated rejection (AMR) and graft failure. After dnDSA development, 24% of the…2017 American Transplant Congress
Acute Antibody-Mediated Rejection in Pediatric Liver Transplantation.
Donor-specific antibodies (DSA) and antibody mediated rejection (AMR) are associated with decreased graft survival in pediatric liver transplantation; however, the incidence of AMR is not…2017 American Transplant Congress
Effective Targeting Plasma Cells with Daratumumab (Anti-CD38) and Mozobil (Anti-CXCR4) in a Sensitized Non-Human Primate Model.
1Surgery, Duke Transplant Center, Durham, NC; 2Surgery, Samsung Medical Center, Seoul, Korea
[Introduction] The presence of donor-specific antibodies (DSA) leads to antibody-mediated rejection (AMR) and decreased graft survival. Therefore efforts continue to be made to reduce DSA…2017 American Transplant Congress
Designing a Novel Selective Immunoproteasome Inhibitor Reveals a Critical Role of the IP and STAT5 Pathway in Regulating T Cell Exhaustion and Promoting Long Term Heart Allograft Acceptance.
Constitutive proteasomes (c-20S) are ubiquitously expressed cellular proteases that degrade polyubiquitinated proteins and regulate cell functions. Immunoproteasomes (IP or i-20S) are primarily expressed in immune…
