CD4 T Cell-Derived NGAL Mediates Experimental Acute Kidney Injury
*Purpose: Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) is a potential biomarker for early detection of acute kidney injury (AKI) in human, but the mechanistic role for NGAL…2019 American Transplant Congress
Sigma-1 Receptor Agonists Are Renoprotective in a Rat Model of Kidney Transplantation
*Purpose: Kidney transplantation is associated with better quality of life and reduced costs compared to dialysis, but the shortage in donor organs is a limiting…2019 American Transplant Congress
Donor Management in Donation after Brain Death: A Window of Opportunity – Are Pro-Inflammatory Mediators the Target and What is the Effect of Duration of Brain Death?
*Purpose: Donation after brain death (BD) is a crucial source of transplanted organs - uncertainty remains how duration of BD contributes to outcomes: This study…2019 American Transplant Congress
Impact of T-cell Mediated Allograft Rejection and Antibody Mediated Rejection within the First Year after Kidney Transplantation
*Purpose: This study evaluated the impact of Clinical and Sub-clinical T-Cell-Mediated Rejection (TCMR), Sub-Clinical Inflammation and Antibody Mediated Rejection (ABMR) within the 1st year post-kidney…2018 American Transplant Congress

Type-1 Interferon Impairs the Immunoregulatory Activity of IL-10: Understanding the Mechanisms of Abrogation of Transplant Tolerance
Plastic Surgery, Johns Hopkins UIniversity, Baltimore, MD.
A growing body of evidence shows that induction of long term transplant survival by costimulation blockade (CoB) regimens is impaired by inflammatory responses (e.g. engagement…2018 American Transplant Congress
IL-6 Inhibition with Tocilizumab to Promote Tregs and Control Renal Graft Inflammation: A Prospective Randomized Controlled Trial
Background: IL-6, a proinflammatory cytokine & key regulator of Treg/Th17, is strongly associated with renal graft rejection. In theory, IL-6 blockade with tocilizumab (TCZ), a…2018 American Transplant Congress
Human Urine-Derived Stem Cells Protect Renal Function by Releasing miR-129-5p Which Targets High-Mobility Group Box-1 (HMGB1) in Rat Ischemia Reperfusion Injury Model
