Intraomental Non-Purified Islet Transplantation Isolated from DCD Donor Pancreas.
Transplant Center, Tianjin First Center Hospital, Tianjin, China
Objective: We have proved that omentum was a more efficient site to perform non-purified islet transplantation with more safety in Beagle dog islet auto-transplantation model.…2017 American Transplant Congress
Chimerism-Related Allotolerance Is Induced by Exosome Acquisition and Reprogramming of Host Dendritic Cells.
Maternal microchimerism (MMc) has been associated with allo-specific graft tolerance in mice and humans. This tolerance is associated with membrane allo-antigen acquisition (mAAQ), which is…2017 American Transplant Congress
Relationship Between Mixed Chimerism and Tolerance in HLA-Matched and -Mismatched Recipients of Kidney and Hematopoietic Cell Transplants.
Twenty-eight fully HLA-matched and 18 HLA haplotype- matched recipients were given combined kidney and hematopoietic cell transplants using a completely post-transplant conditioning regimen consisting of…2017 American Transplant Congress
TIM-4 Identifies Pro-Inflammatory B Effector Cells That Are Potent Drivers of Alloimmunity and Allograft Rejection Through Expression of Both IFN-γ and IL-17.
Thomas E. Starzl Transplantation Institute, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh
B cells can either augment or inhibit immune responses due to the presence both regulatory (Bregs) and effector (Beff) B cells expressing anti- or pro-…2017 American Transplant Congress
Utility of IL-2 Complexes in Promoting Vascularized Composite Allograft Survival.
Vascularized composite allografts (VCA) are a novel, life-enhancing form of transplantation (Tx). The complexity of host immune responses to VCA tissues, especially those involving skin,…2017 American Transplant Congress
Early Evolution and Immunopathologic Phenotype of Treg-Rich Organized Lymphoid Structures (TOLS) Associated with Immunological Tolerance in Accepted Mouse Kidney Allografts.
Introduction: Lymphoid neogenesis has been found in allografts after organ transplant. We previously reported that spontaneously accepted DBA/2 to B6 kidney allografts developed distinctive, peri-arterial…2017 American Transplant Congress
“Donor Age or Quality” a Qualitative Analysis of Livers Declined for 830.
Abdominal Transplant, University of Rochester Medical Center, Rochester, NY
Background: Efforts to improve organ utilization have been hindered by a lack of specificity on center's reasons for declining organs. One of the most frequently…2017 American Transplant Congress
Outcome of Kidney Transplantation from Deceased Octogenarian Donors.
Kidney and Pancreas Transplantation Uniti, Padua University Hospital, Padua, Italy
In order to expand the donor pool, the utilization of kidneys otherwise discarded because of extremely old age or comorbidities has been evaluated.We retrospectively analyzed…2017 American Transplant Congress
Preservation of Musculoskeletal Components in Vascularized Composite Allograft Skin Rejection.
University of Maryland School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD
Background: Severe or chronic rejection of vascularized composite allografts (VCA) has resulted in graft loss and patient deaths. 'Split tolerance' has been defined in patterns…2016 American Transplant Congress
A Weighted Approach to Composite Efficacy Analysis in Kidney Transplantation.
The US92 study determined whether, in de novo renal transplant patients, concentration-controlled everolimus (EVR) with reduced dose tacrolimus (RTAC) is non-inferior to CellCept® (mycophenolate mofetil…
