The 20S Proteasome Is Active in Apoptotic Nanovesicles and Controls Anti-LG3 Antibody Production
Humoral autoreactivity to apoptotic cells and perlecan/LG3, a proteoglycan fragment released by apoptotic cells, predicts poor allograft outcomes in renal transplant patients. How apoptotic cells…2015 American Transplant Congress
Anti-LG3 Antibodies Aggravate Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury
Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury (IRI) is a significant cause of renal allograft dysfunction and a risk factor for poor long-term graft outcomes. Microvascular injury is an important…2015 American Transplant Congress
mTOR Inhibitors Reduce the Endothelial Transmigration of Leukocytes After Ischemia
ObjectivemTOR inhibitors Everolimus and Sirolimus are currently used as maintenance immunosuppressive agents to prevent rejection of solid transplanted organs. Episodes of transplant rejection and graft…2015 American Transplant Congress
