Donor-Derived DCREG Infusion Prolongs Kidney Allograft Survival in Rhesus Monkeys Treated with Co-Stimulation Blockade and Calcineurin Inhibition
Thomas E. Starzl Transplantation Institute, Pittsburgh, PA
*Purpose: We have shown previously that pre-transplantation (Tx) infusion of donor-derived regulatory dendritic cells (DCreg) safely prolongs MHC-mismatched renal allograft survival and regulates donor-reactive T…2020 American Transplant Congress
Pulmonary Hypertension is Associated with Inferior Graft and Patient Survival after Kidney Transplantation
Johns Hopkins Hospital, Baltimore, MD
*Purpose: Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is increasingly recognized among patients with chronic kidney disease largely driven by left heart failure, high cardiac output, hypoxic lung diseases…2020 American Transplant Congress
Role of Cross-Dressing in Kidney Transplantation
Thomas E. Starzl Transplantation Institute, Pittsburgh, PA
