Inflammation in Regions of Tubular Atrophy (IATR) Predicts Adverse Graft Outcome in Patients With Late Graft Dysfunction: A Multicenter Study
Purpose: Inflammation in regions of tubular atrophy (IATR) is a risk factor for late graft loss. However, IATR is associated with inflammation in non-atrophic regions…2015 American Transplant Congress
Respiratory Infections Following Lung Transplantation Leads to De Novo Development of Antibodies to Both Donor HLA and Lung Associated Self-Antigens and Increases the Risk for Bronchiolitis Obliterans Syndrome
Background: It is accepted that lower respiratory tract infections (LRI) post lung transplantation (LTx) are a risk factor for the development of Bronchiolitis Obliterans Syndrome…2015 American Transplant Congress
External Validation of Clinical Prediction Models of Patient and Graft Survival in a Canadian Cohort of Kidney Transplant Recipients
Background: Several clinical prediction models (CPM) of patient and graft survival in kidney transplant recipients have been developed as tools to assist physicians in identifying…2015 American Transplant Congress
Increased Late Graft Loss in Kidney Recipients With Serum Sickness Disease Following Anti-Thymocyte Globulin Induction: Relation With an Anti-Neu5Gc Response
Anti-thymocyte globulins (ATG) are rabbit IgGs against human T cells widely used as induction treatment of kidney recipients. ATG can induce immune-complex diseases including Serum…2015 American Transplant Congress
Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) Associated With Acute Rejection in European American Kidney Transplant Recipients: A Genome Wide Association Study (GWAS)
Purpose: Acute rejection (AR) is associated with increased risk of allograft loss. Therefore, we conducted a GWAS to determine SNPs associated with AR in a…2015 American Transplant Congress
Outcomes of Live Kidney Donors Who Develop End Stage Renal Disease
Kidney donors can develop ESRD after donation, but the outcomes of those who do remain poorly characterized.Methods: Using USRDS and SRTR data, we compared access…2015 American Transplant Congress
Comparison of Markers of Inflammation Between Dialysis Patients With and Without Failed Kidney Allograft
BACKGROUND: The rates of morbidity and mortality in patients with a failed kidney transplant are higher than dialysis patients who had never been transplanted. The…2015 American Transplant Congress
Antibody-Mediated Rejection Is Associated With Higher Serum Levels of CXCL13 and CCL21 in Renal Transplant Patients and Altered By Bortezomib/Rituximab Treatment
In renal transplant patients (pts), B- and plasma cells (PC) are crucial for donor-specific HLA antibody (DSA) formation. The underlying mechanisms, which lead to B…2015 American Transplant Congress
Cognate Events in Antibody- Vs. T Cell-Mediated Rejection: A Molecular Perspective
AIM: The cognate event in antibody-mediated rejection (ABMR) is NK cell FcR engagement; T cell mediated rejection (TCMR) uses TCR engagement. Understanding the molecular changes…2015 American Transplant Congress
100 Protocol Renal Allograft Biopsies at 10 Years: First Look at the Tacrolimus Era
This study examined late renal allograft injury in the Tacrolimus era in 10-yr protocol biopsies (Bx).Methods One hundred 10-yr protocol allograft bx were assessed using…
