Dramatic Primary Expansion of Indirect CD4 T Cells to Allogeneic APCs In Vivo
An ongoing question regarding the primary allograft response is the relative contribution of the 'direct' (donor MHC-restricted) versus 'indirect' (host MHC-restricted) pathways of T cell…2015 American Transplant Congress
Diabetes Mellitus Predicts Outcome in Obesity After Kidney Transplantation
Obesity has been associated with an increased risk of graft loss and death after kidney transplantation. The role of cellular immunity in obese kidney transplant…2015 American Transplant Congress
Cytotoxic CD8 T Cell Recognition of Acquired, Intact MHC Alloantigen On Host Dendritic Cells Promotes Acute Allograft Rejection
University of Cambridge, Cambridge, United Kingdom.
IntroductionAlthough there is increasing evidence that recipient DCs can acquire intact MHC class I by trogocytosis from parenchymal cells, the functional relevance of the 'semi-direct'…2015 American Transplant Congress
Cellular Mechanism of Enhanced Alloimmunity by Ischemia Reperfusion Injury
Transplant Research Center, Brigham and Women's Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA.
Ischemia reperfusion injury of transplanted organs represents a key pathogenic inflammatory process, which increases their allogenicity; subsequently augmenting the rate of acute and chronic rejection.…2015 American Transplant Congress
Rational Development of Alloantigen Specific Regulatory T Cell Therapy Requires Insight Into Longevity of Alloimmune Pathways
University of Cambridge, Cambridge, United Kingdom.
IntroductionWe have recently demonstrated that indirect-pathway responses against different alloantigens differ in their strength and longevity; specifically, that indirect responses against MHC class I alloantigen…2015 American Transplant Congress
IL-2-Dependent Natural Killer Cell Responses to Epstein-Barr Virus B Cell Lymphomas Involve the NKG2A/NKG2C Axis
Stanford University School of Medicine, Stanford, CA.
Epstein Barr virus (EBV) infection elicits a strong host immune response that is considered to be essential for control of the virus and for preventing…
