Long Term Outcomes of Renal Allografts with De Novo DSA in the Setting of Stable Graft Function versus Acute Rejection
We sought to compare the long-term outcome of renal allograft recipients with de novo DSA (dnDSA) in the setting of stable allograft function versus dnDSA…2018 American Transplant Congress
Donor Liver Apoptosis is Associated with Early Allograft Dysfunction and Short-Time Graft Survival after Liver Transplantation
Aims The aim of the study was to determine whether donor liver apoptosis is predictive for early allograft dysfunction (EAD) and graft survival after liver…2018 American Transplant Congress
Interferon-b Promotes Regulatory T Cell (Treg) Induction and Prolongs Allograft Survival
Background: Interferon-b (IFNb), a type I interferon with antiviral and pro-inflammatory activity, has been used as an immune modulatory treatment of multiple sclerosis (MS). The…2018 American Transplant Congress
Lower Uric Acid Level after Kidney Transplantation Impact on Better Long-Term Allograft Outcomes
BackgroundIt has been on debate that hyperuricemia was an independent risk factor for poor prognosis in kidney transplantation. Considering the link of UA with diabetes,…2018 American Transplant Congress
Standard Induction Immunosuppression Interferes with the Role of Vascularized Bone Marrow in Vascularized Composite Allograft Protection
Department of Surgery, University of Maryland School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD.
Purpose: Clinical induction therapies have been demonstrated to interfere with the development of immunologic tolerance in experimental models. Vascularized bone marrow (VBM) has been demonstrated…2018 American Transplant Congress
