End-Stage Renal Disease Does Not Impair the Large-Scale Generation of Potent Alloantigen-Specific Regulatory T Cells for Immunotherapy.
Background Alloantigen-specific natural occurring regulatory T cells (nTregs) have the potential to offer a more targeted approach of immunosuppression and are the cell type of…2016 American Transplant Congress
Donor HLA Specific IgM Antibody Measured on Day 14 Post-Transplantation Predicts Poor Graft Survival in HLA-Incompatible Renal Transplantation.
Introduction: Role of IgG antibodies against donor human leucocyte antigens (HLA) is established in renal transplant monitoring. Role of IgM donor HLA specific antibodies (DSA)…2016 American Transplant Congress
Biopsies for Delayed Graft Function After Alemtuzumab Induction in Kidney Transplantation: The Incidence of Early Rejection After Alemtuzumab Is Very Low but Not Negligible.
IntroductionUK practice advocates transplant biopsy (Bx) at day 7, then weekly in the presence of delayed graft function (DGF) because if missed, early rejection adversely…2016 American Transplant Congress
Urinary Expression of miRNA-155, miRNA-210, miRNA-142 and CXCL-10 Production Predicts the Risk of Acute Rejection and Graft Outcome in Renal Transplant Recipients.
MicroRNAs (miRs) have been reported to play a role in immune system response. The results of several clinical trials have suggested that these molecules might…2016 American Transplant Congress
Do Highly Sensitized Recipients Benefit from the Immunological Advantages of Zero Mismatched (0MM) Deceased Donors (DD) Kidney Allografts?
HLA 0MM DD transplants have superior outcomes compared with outcomes for grafts with ≥1 HLA mismatches, but when past reports analyzed 0MM outcomes in DD,…2016 American Transplant Congress
Can We Predict New-Onset Diabetes After Transplantation Previously?
Objectives: New-onset diabetes after transplantation (NODAT), one of the important complications after kidneytransplantation, leads to reduce graft survival rate and increase patient morbidity and mortality.…2016 American Transplant Congress
Outcomes for Kidney Allograft Recipients with Language Barriers Post-Transplantation – A Comparative Analysis.
Introduction: Patients from ethnic minorities make up an increasing number of recipients of kidney allografts in the UK. Some of these patients have language barriers…2016 American Transplant Congress
Does Pre-Emptive Transplantation Improve Survival Compared to Transplantation After Dialysis Among Deceased Donor Kidney Recipients?
Previous studies have shown that pre-emptive transplantation of kidneys from living donors is associated with longer graft survival than those who have initiated dialysis prior…2016 American Transplant Congress
Significant Pharmacokinetic Interaction Between Everolimus and Tacrolimus in De Novo Renal Transplant Recipients.
Studies on the effect of everolimus on tacrolimus pharmacokinetics (PK) were limited and the results were inconsistent. In contrast, studies showed there was little effect…2016 American Transplant Congress
Kidney Donor Profile Index and Recipient BMI Are Potent Predictors of Six Month Deceased Donor eGFR as Opposed to EPTS.
University of Virginia Health System, Charlottesville, VA.
Background: Kidney Donor Profile Index (KDPI) has been shown to be predictive of both short and long term graft survival and is used by transplant…
