FSGS Recurrence and Graft Survival in Pediatric Renal Transplants: A NAPRTCS Registry Analysis
IntroductionPrevious studies have raised concern of adverse outcome of living donor (LD) grafts in children transplanted for FSGS. This study reassesses impact of donor source,…2018 American Transplant Congress
Aggressive Pursuit of Donation after Cardiac Death Kidney Donors with High Kidney Donor Profile Index: Good Use of Resources?
Clinical Division, Gift of Life Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI.
Pursuit of donation after cardiac death (DCD) organ donors requires a significant investment in resources. As an Organ Procurement Organization which very aggressively pursues such…2018 American Transplant Congress
Long-Term Prognosis of BK Virus Associated Nephropathy in Kidney Transplant Recipients
Background: BK virus-associated nephropathy (BKVAN) is an important risk factor that results in an allograft loss in kidney transplant recipients (KTRs). The short-term prognosis of…2018 American Transplant Congress
Death-Censored Graft Failure (DCGF) Post Kidney Transplant (KTx) is Usually the Result of Rapid Loss of Function after Periods of Stability
Late graft dysfunction leading to clinically indicated transplant biopsy (KTxBx) is a better predictor of subsequent DCGF than baseline data and early post-transplant events (Gaston…2018 American Transplant Congress
A Single Center Outcomes Analysis of UNOS Defined "Hard to Place Kidneys"
Keck Medical Center at USC, Los Angeles, CA.
The discard rate of potentially usable kidneys remains dismal despite a critical shortage of organs. The Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients (SRTR) now provides a…2018 American Transplant Congress
Thirty-Six Consecutive Kidney Transplants in Recipients with Atypical Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome: A Single-Centre Experience
Background. Due to high recurrence rate, poor kidney transplant (KTx) survival has been reported for recipients with atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS). More recently, prophylaxis…2018 American Transplant Congress
The Impact of Donor Specific Alloantibodies on Long-Term Outcomes of Liver Re-Transplantation

Lymph Node Stromal Laminins Affect Graft Survival through Regulation of CD4 T Cell Proliferation and Migration
University of Maryland, Baltimore, MD.
Background: Our prior studies demonstrated that tolerance and immunity are associated with differential expression of lymph node (LN) stromal laminins α4β1γ1 (411) and α5β1γ1 (511),…2018 American Transplant Congress
Sensing T Cell Killing Activity with Granzyme B Activity Probes
Purpose: We developed activity-based probes that sense Granzyme B (GzmB) activity during alloreactive T cell killing of donor cellsMethods: FITC-labelled GzmB substrate (IEFDSG) was synthesized…
