Myeloid-Derived Suppressor Cells (MDSC) Accumulate in Intestinal Transplant (IT) Patients.
[Background] IT is an efficacious treatment for chronic intestinal failure. Recent advance of immunosuppressive regimens have decreased the rejection rate and improved patient survival. The…2016 American Transplant Congress
Innate Lymphoid Cells Play a Key Role in Controlling Antimicrobial Defense in Intestinal Transplant Recipients.
MedStar Georgetown Transplant Institute, Washington DC.
A. Infectious complications are the leading cause of death early after intestinal transplantation (ITx). Etiologies underlying this remain unclear. Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) have very…2016 American Transplant Congress
Number of Bacterial Isolates and Resistance Increases Mortality Risk in Intestinal Transplant Patients.
Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, New York.
BackgroundInfection is the most common complication in intestinal transplant (IT) recipients. Data regarding the impact of infections on outcomes following IT is limited.MethodsThis is a…2016 American Transplant Congress
Generation of Naïve Donor-Derived Lymphocytes from Graft-Resident Lymphoid Progenitors After Human Intestinal Transplantation.
Columbia University, New York.
Multivisceral transplantation (MVTx) is associated with a lower rate of severe graft rejection than isolated intestinal transplantation (iITx). We recently demonstrated that mixed T cell…2016 American Transplant Congress
CD45RO+/CD62L- Effector Memory T Cells Mediate Depletion Resistant Allograft Rejection in Intestinal Transplant Recipients.
MedStar Georgetown Transplant Institute, Washington DC.
A. A high risk of acute cellular rejection (ACR) is one of the key factors limiting intestinal transplantation (ITx). An extremely poor prognosis is related…2016 American Transplant Congress
Colonization and Risk of Bacteremia by Multi-Drug Resistant Organisms in Intestinal Transplant Recipients.
Background: This study is the first to evaluate colonization rates and subsequent bacteremia with multi-drug resistant organisms (MDRO) in intestinal transplant (ITx) recipients.Methods: Retrospective study…2016 American Transplant Congress
Living Related Small Bowel Transplantation in Children, a Single-Center Experience – Growth, Development and Quality of Life 10 Years After Transplant.
Summary Background: Pediatric patients with irreversible intestinal failure present multiple challenges due to their young ages and their associated growth needs. We have previously published…2016 American Transplant Congress
