Donor-Recipient HLA Mismatched Peptides Calculated by PIRCHE Algorithm Associate with De Novo Donor-Specific Cellular and Humoral Alloreactivity and Predicts Inferior Graft Outcome
*Purpose: PIRCHE-II algorithm predicts mismatched donor-derived HLA peptides number presented on recipient HLAclass-II molecules to recipient T-cells (indirect pathway of allorecognition) and has been associated…2019 American Transplant Congress
Role of Innate Allorecognition Pathways in Mouse Renal Allograft Rejection
*Purpose: Allograft rejection is initiated by host immune system distinguishing between self and allogeneic non-self (allorecognition). Paired immunoglobulin-like receptor (PIR) and CD47 are molecules expressed…2019 American Transplant Congress
Transplantation Alone Induces Myeloid-Derived Suppressor Cells Which Can Suppress T Cell Responses
University of Maryland, Baltimore, MD
*Purpose: Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSC) are a naturally occurring, heterogeneous population of highly immunosuppressive CD11b+GR-1+ cells that expand in response to inflammatory conditions. MDSCs develop…2019 American Transplant Congress
Computational Assessment of T-cell and B-cell Allorecognition to Predict Donor HLA Immunogenicity
*Purpose: Donor-specific alloantibody (DSA) development after solid-organ transplantation is a major cause of graft loss, and limits future transplant options. We have previously shown that…2019 American Transplant Congress
Evaluating Allo-Specific CD57+ T Cells during Memory and Proliferative Responses
Department of Surgery, Duke University, Durham, NC
*Purpose: We have previously identified subsets of CD57+ T cells that are resistant to B7 costimulation blockade (CoB) in kidney transplant recipients. The objective of…2019 American Transplant Congress
Can Imputation of HLA Allele Level Typing Be Used Clinically in a Multiethnic Population?
*Purpose: Assignment of eplets in transplantation for the purpose of matching or risk stratification requires high-resolution HLA typing, which is not readily available. Computer algorithms…2019 American Transplant Congress
High-Throughput Immune Synapse Detection as a Tool for the Measurement of T Cell Alloreactivity
*Purpose: Measurement of T cell alloreactivity may facilitate a more accurate prediction of graft outcome and the selection of patients for immunosuppression optimization. However, current…2019 American Transplant Congress
Humoral Immune Responses to Kidney Associated Non-HLA Antigens is Not Associated with Progression to Chronic Immune Injury in Kidney Transplant Recipients
1Mayo Clinic, Phoenix, AZ, 2St. Joseph’s Hospital, Phoenix, AZ
*Purpose: Development of donor specific anti-HLA (DSA) although is a known risk factor for Chronic immune injury (CII), it is undetectable in many patients with…2019 American Transplant Congress
IL-10+ Plasma Cells Are Not Required for Breg Activity and Are Counterbalanced by Novel Pro-Inflammatory Plasma Cells
University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, PA
*Purpose: Classically, B cells differentiate into Ab-secreting plasma cells (PCs; B220lowCD138hiBlimp1+Ig+) providing humoral immunity. B cells can also inhibit or promote immune responses through the…2019 American Transplant Congress
Tolerogenic Nanoparticles Targeting the Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor
*Purpose: The aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) has been shown to have a central role in the ability of dendritic cells (DCs) to direct differentiation of…
