Effects of Anti-Human Leukocyte Antigen Antibody After Heart Transplantation
Cedars-Sinai Heart Institute, Los Angeles, CA.
Purpose: The development of donor-specific antibodies (DSA) after heart transplant has been correlated to the subsequent development of graft rejection. The development of DSA are…2015 American Transplant Congress
A New Diagnostic Tool for Antibody Mediated Rejection in Heart and Lung Transplantation: Intragraft Donor Specific Anti-HLA Antibodies Detection
INTRODUCTION: Antibody mediated rejection (AMR) is one of the causes of dysfunction and graft loss. The limited histological features, with a weak sensibility of c4d,…2015 American Transplant Congress
De Novo Donor Specific Antibody (DSA) After Treatment of BK Infection With Intravenous Immunoglobulin (IVIG)
Comprehensive Transplant Center, Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, Los Angeles, CA.
Introduction: The primary treatment for polyomavirus BK viral infection (BKV) is a reduction in immunosuppression exposure. However this can lead to rejection and development of…2015 American Transplant Congress
Mycophenolic Acid Area-Under-Curve (MPA AUC) Levels Sufficient to Prevent Donor-Specific Antibody (DSA) Formation Are Not Associated With Higher Rates of CMV/EBV/BK Viral Infections
PinnacleHealth, Harrisburg, PA.
Background: Prevention of DSA formation and antibody-mediated rejection mandates therapeutic doses of immunosuppressive agents, including MPA. We have shown that MPA AUC monitoring and dose…2015 American Transplant Congress
Structural and Functional Basis for Non-HLA Antibody Mediated AT1R Activation
Nephrology and Intensive Care Medicine, Charité University Hospital, Berlin, Germany.
Angiotensin II type receptor (AT1R), a heptahelical protein signals stimuli upon binding of natural peptide ligand angiotensin II (Ang II) and the pathogenic non-HLA IgG…2015 American Transplant Congress
Is Pretransplant Anti-A/B Antibody Removal Prerequisite for Successful ABO Incompatible Kidney Transplantation in Children?
Purpose: We have recently demonstrated that the long-term outcome of ABO incompatible living donor kidney transplantation (ABOiKT) in children was comparable to those of ABO…2015 American Transplant Congress
Antibody Response Following Influenza Vaccination in Renal Transplant Recipients
Indiana University School of Medicne-IU Health, Indianapolis, IN.
Purpose: Following the recommended consensus guidelines of ATC for vaccination, at our institution we recommend annual vaccination for influenza + H1N1 (Flu) for renal transplant…2015 American Transplant Congress
Angiotensin Receptor Antibody IgG1 Subclass Predicts Accelerated Graft Loss in Those Kidney Transplant Recipients Who Develop Biopsy Proven Transplant Glomerulopathy Irrespective of the Presence Or Absence of Donor Specific Anti HLA Antibodies
We assessed the presence or absence of angiotensin receptor antibodies (ATRab) in all those Kidney Transplant Patients who have had biopsy proven transplant glomerulopathy (TG)…2015 American Transplant Congress
Molecular Testing for Microcirculation Injury Enhances the Assessment of Antibody-Mediated Rejection in Human Cardiac Allograft Biopsies
BACKGROUND: Despite continuous attempts to refine diagnostic consensus, accurate assessment of Antibody-mediated rejection (AMR) is an ongoing unmet need. The microcirculation represents the primary target…2015 American Transplant Congress
Outcomes of ABO Incompatible Kidney Transplantation in Children
Purpose: ABO blood group incompatible transplantation (ABOi) has become increasingly common over the last decade, in part due to a shortage of suitable deceased donor…
