First Report and Mechanistic Analysis of Chronic GVHD after Solid Organ Transplantation
Georgetown University Hospital, Washington, DC
*Purpose: Chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) occurs late after bone marrow transplantation and is associated with a characteristic lichenoid rash (cutaneous sclerosis) and effects on multiple…2019 American Transplant Congress
Elevated Podocyte-specific Urinary Extracellular Vesicles In Patients With Fsgs Recurrence After Kidney Transplantation
University of California Irvine, Orange, CA
*Purpose: Kidney graft failure is a major concern in patients with kidney transplantation. Patients who suffered graft failure are at a higher risk for mortality…2019 American Transplant Congress
Differences in CMV-Specific CD4 T Cell Population in De Novo Kidney Transplant Recipients Treated with Everolimus-Based Regimen Compared to a Standard Tacrolimus-MPA Regimen: Results from ATHENA
1ATHENA, CMV Substudy Group, Germany, 2Novartis, Pharma GmbH, Germany
*Purpose: The ATHENA trial was designed to compare everolimus [EVR] in combination with tacrolimus [TAC] or cyclosporine A [CyA] vs. a standard regimen of mycophenolic…2019 American Transplant Congress
Absence of Protective Innate Lymphoid Cell Type 3 (ILC3) and Persistence of Proinflammatory Innate Lymphoid Cell Subsets Immediately Post-Transplant Plays a Appreciable Role in Early Intestinal Barrier Dysfunction
Georgetown University, Washington, DC
*Purpose: Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) , the most recently described family of lymphoid cells, play fundamental roles in mucosal barrier immunity, tissue homeostasis, and immune…2019 American Transplant Congress
First Report and Mechanistic Analysis of Operational Tolerance after Intestinal Transplant
1MedStar Georgetown Transplant Institute, Washington, DC, 2University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, PA
*Purpose: Transplantation tolerance is a highly sought and rarely achieved state in clinical medicine. Defined as long-term stable and acceptable graft tolerance without immunosuppression and…2019 American Transplant Congress
Central Role of Graft Resident Memory T Cells in Pathogenesis of GVHD after Bowel Transplantation
MedStar Georgetown Transplant Institute, Washington, DC
*Purpose: Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is a relatively common and highly morbid complication after intestinal transplantation. Its pathophysiology remains poorly understood. Resident memory T cells (TRM)…2019 American Transplant Congress
Depletional Induction Therapy in Non-Human Primates – Preclinical Modeling of Polyclonal Depletion with Rhesus-Specific ATG
*Purpose: Antithymocyte globulins (ATG) have been used in transplantation since the late 1960s to prevent and treat acute allograft rejection. Over the past decade, induction…2019 American Transplant Congress
Increasing Expression of B-cell Maturation Antigen during the Development of Recall Antibody Responses: A Prospective Pharmaceutical Target for B-cell Suppression?
Cedars-Sinai Med Ctr, Los Angeles, CA
*Purpose: Our previous study found that B cell maturation antigen (BCMA) is increasingly expressed by B/plasma cells during the development of de novo alloantibody responses.…2019 American Transplant Congress
BCMA Expression by Alloreactive B Cells Increases during De Novo Alloantibody Responses
Comprehensive Transplant Center, Cedars-Sinai Med Ctr, Los Angeles, CA
*Purpose: BCMA(TNFRSF17) belongs to tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily. It is selectively expressed during B/plasma cell differentiation while being nearly absent on naive and memory…2019 American Transplant Congress
B Cell Derived Exosomes Are Associated with Antibody Mediated Rejection in Kidney Transplant Recipients Desensitized for a Positive Cross-Match
*Purpose: Kidney transplant recipients undergoing desensitization for a positive cross-match are at very high risk of developing Antibody-Mediated Rejection (AMR). Because of desensitization, peripheral circulating…
