Kynurenine Assay to Detect Inflammation in Transplant Patient: Clinical Results
Introduction: Ideal biomarker should be specific, sensitive, non-invasive, mirror the benefit of therapy and offer prognostic potential. We developed a test using a colorimetric assay…2015 American Transplant Congress
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
The Effects of Periostin on Renal Fibrosis After Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury Via p38 MAPK Pathway
Ischemia-reperfusion injury during the transplantation procedure is associated with poor long-term allograft outcomes, such as rejection and fibrosis. Periostin, a matricellular protein, has been reported…2015 American Transplant Congress
Distinctive Roles of mTORC1 Vs. mTORC2 in Liver Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury
Mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) exists in two complexes to regulate diverse biological processes. Although mTOR complex 1, the canonical target of rapamycin, has been…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
Neogenin Functions as a Chemokinetic Receptor on Activated CD4+ T Lymphocytes
1Boston Children's Hospital, Boston; 2Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston.
Increasing data indicates that axonal guidance cues play a critical role in immunity, both in activation, migration as well as in the process of inflammation…2015 American Transplant Congress
Enhanced Production of Macrophage Chemoattractant Protein-1 (MCP-1) Within the Kidney in Brain Death Donors Predicts Recipient Allograft Function
Medicine/Surgery, University of Alabama at Birmingham, Birmingham, AL.
Brain death (BD) induces an intense pro-inflammatory state, which may impact recipient immunity and graft function after kidney transplantation. The identification of biomarkers predictive of…2015 American Transplant Congress
Donor Organ Resident M2 Type Myeloid Cells Protect Murine Orthotropic Liver Transplants from Ischemia and Reperfusion Injury
The Dumont-UCLA Transplant Ctr., UCLA, Los Angeles, CA.
Liver ischemia reperfusion injury (lRI) is mediated by a pro-inflammatory immune response initiated by the activation of liver non-parenchymal innate immune cells, such as Kupffer…2015 American Transplant Congress
Predictive Value of Postoperative CRP and Procalctonin in Kidney Donors Experiencing Surgical Complications
Renal and Pancreatic Transplantation, Guy's Hospital, London, United Kingdom.
Introduction: Patients undergoing donor nephrectomy are fit and well individuals. Despite this, 1 in 5 will suffer a perioperative complication causing significant morbidity. Recent published…2015 American Transplant Congress
Perfusion Disturbances and Local Infarctions After Experimental Kidney Transplantation Corralte With the Duration of Cold Ischemia Time
Background: Kidney transplantation in mice is challenging but offers good translational models to study mechanisms of disease. In this study allogenic and isogenic kidney transplantation…
