Identification of Antibody-Mediated Rejection After Kidney Transplantation by Specific MicroRNAs.
Antibody-mediated rejection (ABMR) is the major cause for allograft failure, since a curative therapy is lacking. There are also still challenges in ABMR diagnosis. The…2017 American Transplant Congress
Outcomes of 100 ABO Incompatible Kidney Transplants: A Single US Center Experience.
Comprehensive Transplant Center, Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, Los Angeles, CA
IntroductionAcceptable patient and graft outcomes of ABO incompatible (ABOi) living donor kidney transplantation (LDKT) have been reported with the use of desensitization strategies. Data on…2017 American Transplant Congress
Outcome of Kidney Transplantation from Deceased Octogenarian Donors.
Kidney and Pancreas Transplantation Uniti, Padua University Hospital, Padua, Italy
In order to expand the donor pool, the utilization of kidneys otherwise discarded because of extremely old age or comorbidities has been evaluated.We retrospectively analyzed…2017 American Transplant Congress
Plasma Extracellular Vesicles MicroRNA Signatures Associate with Graft Function Recovery Post-Acute Renal Allograft Injury.
Background: Early host-allograft cell-to-cell communications have been reported to occur via extracellular vesicles (EVs)/protein-miRNA complexes that might determine early allograft outcomes like delayed graft function…2017 American Transplant Congress
Risk Factors for Hospital Readmission with Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs) Following Kidney Transplantation (KT).
UTIs are common causes of hospital readmissions after KT. Our objective is to determine predictors of hospital readmissions for UTI within 1 year after a…2017 American Transplant Congress
Impact of Filgrastim Use on Maintenance Doses of Immunosuppressants and Clinical Outcomes in Renal Transplant Patients.
Introduction: There are limited data assessing the outcomes of filgrastim for the treatment of neutropenia among renal transplant patients. We investigated the association of filgrastim…2017 American Transplant Congress
The Search for a Polyomavirus BK Nephropathy (BKPyVN)-Specific Transcriptomic Signature.
Recent work suggests that genes related to DNA replication signaling, RNA polymerase assembly, & pathogen recognition receptors are biomarkers for BKPyVN (Sigdel et al. Transplant…2017 American Transplant Congress
Evaluation of Immunological States of Patients with Cytomegalovirus Infection After Kidney Transplantation.
Department of Gastroenterological and Transplant Surgery, Hiroshima University, Hiroshima, Japan
Background: Generally, it is thought that strong immunosuppression causes cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection after kidney transplantation (KT); thus, physicians often reduce the dose of the immunosuppressant…2017 American Transplant Congress
Generation of Autologous CMV and EBV-Specific T-Cell Lines from Seronegative Patients for Cell Therapy of Opportunistic Infections Following Kidney Transplantation.
Cytomegalovirus (CMV) and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) reactivations after kidney transplant are associated with substantial morbidity, especially in seronegative patients. Adoptive immunotherapy using virus-specific T cells…2017 American Transplant Congress
Integrative Analysis of ExomeSeq and Gene Expression Data for Identification of Novel Variants Associated with Antibody-Mediated Rejection in Kidney Transplant.
Background: The objective of this work is to characterize the impact of the donor-recipient (D/R) HLA and non-HLA mismatches on the risk of antibody-mediated rejection…
