Distinct Delayed Classical Complement Pathway Activation Highlights Transition of Ischemic Acute Kidney Injury to Chronic Kidney Disease with Interstitial Fibrosis/Tubular Atrophy
Comprehensive Transplant Center, Cedars Sinai Medical Ctr, Los Angeles, CA
*Purpose: Ischemia reperfusion Injury (IRI)-induced AKI of the renal allograft frequently leads to delayed graft function (DGF). Patients with DGF suffer from prolonged hospitalization with…2019 American Transplant Congress
Transfer of Healthy Mitochondria in Established Ischemic Injury Reduces Progression to Interstitial Fibrosis and Tubular Atrophy
*Purpose: Ischemia induces altered bioenergetics with increased mitochondrial swelling and reactive oxygen species (ROS) and ultimately degradation of cellular function. Therapeutic interventions that target to…2019 American Transplant Congress
Alemtuzumab versus Anti-Thymocyte Globulin Induction in the Setting of Immediate Post-Renal Transplant Acute Tubular Necrosis in an Urban, Minority Patient Population
University of Illinois at Chicago, Chicago, IL
*Purpose: Post-renal transplant (RTx) delayed graft function (DGF) or slow graft function (SGF) increase the risk of rejection and impair allograft function. Lymphocyte depleting induction…2019 American Transplant Congress
