Bone Marrow Mesenchymal Stem Cells Improve Rat Islet Angiogenesis by Upregulating of ISL1 and VEGF-A
*Purpose: Islet transplantation is an important therapy to cure diabetes, but poor angiogenesis in the early stage of islet transplantation is one of the main…2020 American Transplant Congress
Inflammatory Cytokines Have a Different Effect from One HLA-II Subclass to Another on Human Endothelium
Universite Laval, Quebec, QC, Canada
*Purpose: Development of de novo donor-specific antibodies (DSAs) is associated with antibody-mediated rejection and allograft failure. More particularly, HLA-II DSAs, especially those against DQ are…2020 American Transplant Congress
Novel Technique to Analyze Blood-Endothelial Cell Interactions Under Flow Conditions
*Purpose: The Bioflux system has been used to study platelet-driven thrombosis and leukocyte adhesion. Typically, whole blood is stained with calcein (green) to evaluate platelet…2020 American Transplant Congress
Autophagy Attenuates Renal Allograft Interstitial Fibrosis by Regulating the EndMT Induced by TNF-α
Jiangsu Province Hospital, Nanjing, China
*Purpose: Kidney interstitial fibrosis is a significant cause of allograft failure in kidney transplantation. Autophagy is a self-digestive process that eliminates impaired or aged proteins…2020 American Transplant Congress
Src Induces Endothelial-to-Mesenchymal Transition and Renal Allograft Fibrosis via Promoting WNT/β-catenin Pathway
Jiangsu Province Hospital, Nanjing, China
*Purpose: Endothelial-to-mesenchymal(EndMT)is recognized as an important source of myofibroblasts contributing to the pathogenesis of allograft interstitial fibrosis in our previous studies. Increased proto-oncogene tyrosine-protein kinase…2020 American Transplant Congress
Treg-Lymphatic Interfaces: Unique Molecular Structures for Cell-Cell Interactions During Migration
*Purpose: To promote transplant tolerance, T regulatory cells (Treg) must enter the afferent lymphatic vasculature by migrating across lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs), and then home…2020 American Transplant Congress
Cordycepin Protects Renal Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury Through Regulating Inflammation, Apoptosis and Oxidative Stress
*Purpose: Cordycepin (3’-deoxyadenosine) is a naturally occurring adenosine analogue and onem of the bioactive constituents isolated from Cordyceps militaris/Cordyceps sinensis, species of the fungal genus…2020 American Transplant Congress
New Strategy to Maximize Nanomedicine Delivery During Ex Vivo Organ Perfusion
*Purpose: Organ transplant is a highly successful therapy for patients facing end stage organ failure. However, there is a severe lack of transplantable organs which…2020 American Transplant Congress
Treg Stability Depends on Lymphotoxin Beta Receptor-Driven Migration
University of Maryland, Baltimore, Baltimore, MD
*Purpose: Regulatory T cell (Treg) suppressor function for allograft survival requires maintenance of transcription factor Foxp3 and sequential migration from tissues to lymph nodes (LN).…2020 American Transplant Congress
Apoptotic Exosome-Like Vesicles are Associated with Alloimmune Vascular Injury in Kidney Transplant Recipients
*Purpose: There is no non-invasive biomarker of alloimmune vascular injury. We have previously characterized exosome-like vesicles enriched in active proteasome and LG3 (ApoExo) that are…
