2020 American Transplant Congress
Combining Pharmacy and Genome-Wide Genotyping Data to Examine Medication Regimen Complexity Indices (MRCI), Drug-Drug and Gene-Drug Interactions in Transplant Patients
*Purpose: Polypharmacy, typically defined as the use of five or more medications, is a barrier to adherence, and the resulting complex medication regimens result in…2020 American Transplant Congress
Role of Genetic Studies in Reclassifying Cause of End Stage Kidney Disease among Kidney Transplant Candidates
*Purpose: Recent studies evaluating genetic causes of kidney disease have reclassified a subgroup of focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) into collagenopathies. This knowledge has implication in…2020 American Transplant Congress
The Use of Cell-Free MicroRNAs for the Diagnosis of Allograft Rejection in Liver Transplant Recipients Using Standard and Novel Direct Detection Platforms
*Purpose: Standard immunosuppression therapy (IST) in liver transplant (LTx) recipients requires a delicate balance to prevent side effects and allograft rejection (AR). There is no…2020 American Transplant Congress
Chronic Diarrhea in Renal Transplant Recipients: A Metagenomic Study of Gut Microbiota Composition and Functionality
*Purpose: Chronic diarrhea is a common problem in renal transplant recipients (RTR) and can lead to a lower quality of life. However, in many patients…2020 American Transplant Congress
Small RNA Extracellular Vesicles Isolated from Liver Perfusate Provides Assessment of Organ Quality and Post Transplantation Graft Function
*Purpose: Donor quality plays a critical role during IRI and early graft outcomes. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) provide a novel source of valuable biomarkers that may…2020 American Transplant Congress
Mitochondrial Metabolism is Enriched Following Normothermic Ex-Vivo Kidney Perfusion of Grafts Procured Following Cardiac Death
*Purpose: Normothermic ex-vivo kidney perfusion (NEVKP) preservation has demonstrated superior graft outcomes for kidneys procured following donation-after-cardiac death (DCD) over static cold storage (SCS). To…2020 American Transplant Congress
Use of 16S Sequencing to Reveal Potential Respiratory Pathogens in Lung Transplant Recipients
*Purpose: Respiratory infections are common after lung transplant and contribute to mortality and allograft failure. 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene sequencing could facilitate diagnosis of…2020 American Transplant Congress
Discrepant Subtyping of Blood Type A2 Living Kidney Donors in Paired Kidney Exchange
*Purpose: Utilizing non-A1 donors for O or B recipients with low anti-A titers presents an opportunity to expand living donor kidney transplantation. Since February 2018,…2020 American Transplant Congress
A Bioinformatics Pipeline for the Identification of Crucial Factors for Transplant Rejection Based on NGS Data
*Purpose: T and B cells are crucial parts of the human immune system and play an important role in transplantation. Since the mechanisms leading to…2020 American Transplant Congress
Identification of Novel Gene Targets Inducing Resistance in Liver Ischemia Reperfusion Injury by CRISPR Screening
*Purpose: Liver transplantation (LT) is the best treatment option for patients with end-stage liver disease (ESLD). However, the gap between available donors and recipients in…
