Eosinophils Attenuate Hepatic Ischemia Reperfusion Injury in Mice Through St2-Dependent Il-13 Production
*Purpose: The purpose is to investigate the functional role of eosinophils during hepatic ischemia and reperfusion injury (IRI).*Methods: Mice with antibody-induced eosinophil depletion and two…2020 American Transplant Congress
Eosinophils Maintain Lung Allograft Tolerance by Sequestering CD8+ T Cells in Bronchial Associated Lymphoid Tissue
*Purpose: It has been recently described that eosinophils can facilitate immunosuppression-mediated acceptance of murine lung allografts. But the role of eosinophils in long term maintenance…2020 American Transplant Congress
Co-Stimulatory Blockade Immunosuppression Facilitates Lung Allograft Acceptance Through an Increase in Local IL-5 Production by Type 2 Innate Lymphoid Cells
Surgery, University of Virginia, Charlottesville, VA
*Purpose: We have recently demonstrated that co-stimulatory blockade (CSB)-induced mouse lung allograft acceptance depends on a rapid influx of eosinophils that function to downregulate T…2015 American Transplant Congress
Eosinophilic Gastrointestinal Disease in Pediatric Liver and Kidney Transplant Recipients
1Pediatrics, Northwestern University, Chicago; 2Pathology, Northwestern University, Chicago.
Eosinophilic gastrointestinal disease (EGID) has been associated with immunosuppression use in solid organ transplant recipients. However, its relationship to the post-transplant clinical course is unknown.…
