DQB1 Epitope Matching Predicts the Development of De Novo DSA and Antibody Mediated Rejection
HLA DQ antibodies are the commonest de novo [DN] DSA specificity seen post renal transplantation. Their presence is associated with antibody mediated injury and allograft…2015 American Transplant Congress
The Synergistic Effect of Class II HLA Epitope-Mismatch and Non-Adherence on Acute Rejection and Graft Survival
Predicting long-term outcomes in renal transplant recipients is essential to optimize medical therapy and determine the frequency of post-transplant pathologic and serologic monitoring. Non-adherence and…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
Are DQA Antibodies Real?
Medicine, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD.
Antibodies specific for HLA-DQ antigens appear to be increasing in frequency in the post-transplant period and are difficult to reduce effectively with desensitization protocols using…2015 American Transplant Congress
Differences in Reactivity of HLA-Specific Antibodies May Be Explained By Differences in Their Affinities for Selected Epitopes on HLA Proteins
Affinity of IgG immunoglobulins for antigen varies and matures within the evolution of immune responses. Affinity is likely to be different for different epitope-antibody interactions…
