The Association between Alloimmunity and De Novo Glomerulonephritis Post Kidney Transplantation
Columbia University Medical Center, New York, NY
*Purpose: In contrast to recurrent immune complex-mediated glomerulonephritis (ICGN), de novo ICGN of the allograft is poorly characterized. We hypothesize that alloimmunity results in immune-complex…2020 American Transplant Congress
The Banff Classification of Antibody-Mediated Rejection in Kidney Allografts: Comparison of Predictive Performance for Allograft Failure in Previous and Current Editions
*Purpose: Since its introduction in 2001, the Banff classification for antibody-mediated rejection (ABMR) has undergone significant changes, mainly by inclusion of C4d-negative ABMR in 2013…2020 American Transplant Congress
Molecular Features of HLA Mismatches as Predictors of De Novo DSA Development: A Single Center Experience
*Purpose: Several molecular features (MoFs) of HLA mismatches (MMs) are currently used to predict the development of de novo donor-specific anti-HLA antibodies (dnDSA). The purpose…2020 American Transplant Congress
Gender Disparity in Living Donor Kidney Transplants
SUNY Downstate Medical Center, Brooklyn, NY
*Purpose: Over the last decades, the number of kidney transplants has increased. However, more male than female patients receive a transplant. While the male/female ratio…2020 American Transplant Congress
Kidney Alkalization Increases Macula Densa NOS1β Expression and Improves Transplanted Renal Graft Function
*Purpose: Ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) is a major survival hurdle with kidney transplantation (KTX). Currently, no effective strategies for the prevention and treatment of IRI during…2020 American Transplant Congress
Low Physiochemical Immunogenicity Scores Improve Long-Term Survival of Deceased Donor Kidney Transplants
*Purpose: A severe shortage of deceased donor kidneys limits access to kidney transplantation. Limited longterm graft function exacerbates this shortage as 12% of the waiting…2020 American Transplant Congress
The Impact of Purposeful Reductions in Immunosuppression on Clinical Outcomes in Kidney Transplantation
*Purpose: Reductions to immunosuppressive therapy (IS) are often made due to infection or other IS intolerances, but little is known of impact of these reductions…2020 American Transplant Congress
Early Post-Transplant Infusion of Ex Vivo-Expanded Autologous Polyclonal Regulatory T Cells (Treg) Prolongs Kidney Allograft Survival in Non-Lymphodepleted, CTLA4Ig-Treated Rhesus Monkeys
Starzl Transplantation Institute, University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, Pittsburgh, PA
*Purpose: Rodent studies have demonstrated the utility of regulatory T cell (Treg) infusion for the promotion of tolerance to organ allografts. Here, we evaluated the…2020 American Transplant Congress
Protocolized Exercise Improves Frailty Parameters and Lower Extremity Impairment: A Promising Prehabilitation Strategy for Kidney Transplant Candidates
*Purpose: Frailty and lower extremity (LE) impairment are risk factors for numerous adverse outcomes in kidney transplant (KT) candidates, including decreased rates of transplantation, increased…2020 American Transplant Congress
Role of Innate Allorecognition Pathways in Mouse Kidney and Heart Allograft Rejection
*Purpose: Paired immunoglobulin-like receptors (PIR) and CD47 are molecules expressed on host myeloid cells. They recognize donor polymorphic MHC and signal regulatory protein alpha (SIRPα),…
