    Inhibition of Bruton Tyrosine Kinase Blocks Sensitization in Response to Allogeneic Skin Transplantation and Prolong Skin Graft Survival.

    N. Datta, T. Palumbo, J. Kupiec-Weglinski, A. Zarrinpar.

    Surgery, University of California, Los Angeles, CA

    Antibody mediated rejection and donor specific antibodies are important causes of both early (hyperacute) and late (chronic) graft loss. Bruton tyrosine kinase (Btk) is required…

    Donor-Specific B Cell Responses: Predicting the Future of Kidney Transplants.

    M. Cascalho,1 E. Farkash,2 L. Adam,1 M. Samaniego,3 J. Platt.

    1Surgery, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor; 2Pathology, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor; 3Internal Medicine, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor

    Allogeneic cell and tissue transplants nearly always evoke B cell responses ascertainable by detecting donor-specific antibodies (DSA) in the circulation of the recipient. DSA are…
