Hybrid-Natural Orifice Transluminal Endoscopic Surgery (NOTES) for Laparoscopic Donor Nephrectomy Offers Better Postoperative Pain, Cosmesis and Surgical Outcomes Than Transumbilical Single Site Surgery
Department of Renal Transplantation Surgery, Sapporo Hokuyu Hospital, Sapporo, Japan.
Objectives: Laparoendoscopic single site donor nephrectomy (LESSDN) via the umbilicus has been our standard care for living donors. Although we have previously reported better cosmetic…2015 American Transplant Congress
1-Year Safety and Efficacy of Eculizumab in Adult aHUS Patients, With or Without a History of Renal Transplant
Background: Atypical hemolytic-uremic syndrome (aHUS) is a life-threatening, chronic disease of complement-mediated TMA. In aHUS, renal transplantation is associated with post-transplant (TP) TMA and ∼50–70%…2015 American Transplant Congress
Rat dnIKK2-Treg Derived Exosomes Suppress T Cell Proliferation, Generate T Regulatory Cells and Prolong Kidney Allograft Survival
Istituto di Ricerche Farmacologiche Mario Negri, Ranica, Italy.
Rat DCs, made immature by adenoviral gene transfer of dnIKK2, generated in MLR a unique population of CD4+ T regulatory cells (dnIKK2-Treg) which potently inhibited…2015 American Transplant Congress
Antibody Response Following Influenza Vaccination in Renal Transplant Recipients
Indiana University School of Medicne-IU Health, Indianapolis, IN.
Purpose: Following the recommended consensus guidelines of ATC for vaccination, at our institution we recommend annual vaccination for influenza + H1N1 (Flu) for renal transplant…2015 American Transplant Congress
Relationship Between Delayed Graft Function (DGF) Severity and Predicted DGF Risk
1Quark, Fremont; 2UCSF, SF; 3U of Barcelona, BCN, Spain.
Historically, dialysis required in the first post-transplant (TX) week has defined DGF. This incidence-based definition fails to discriminate between short versus long courses of dialysis…2015 American Transplant Congress
Interim Results of a Phase 1 Trial of Treg Adoptive Cell Transfer (TRACT) in Living Donor Kidney Transplant Recipients
Therapeutic cell transfer using regulatory T cells (Tregs) in transplant recipients may reduce the need for drug based immunosuppression (IS) and improve long term graft…2015 American Transplant Congress
Switching from Tacrolimus to Low-Dose Cyclosporine A Preserves Allograft Function in Presumptive and Definitive Polyomavirus-Associated Nephropathy
Switching from tacrolimus(Tac) to low-dose cyclosporine A(CsA) is recommended for preventing BK virus-associated nephropathy(BKVAN) and preserving allograft function in BKVAN patients, but systematic evaluations were…2015 American Transplant Congress
Post-Transplant Recurrence of Calcium Oxalate Crystals in Primary Hyperoxaluria Type 1 Detected by Surveillance Biopsies: Incidence, Risk Factors, and Effect on Graft Function
Background: Primary hyperoxaluria type 1 (PH1) is a rare metabolic defect that results in oxalate over-production by the liver and leads to renal disease due…2015 American Transplant Congress
Protocol Donor Specific Antibody Monitoring After Kidney Transplantation: What Is the Utility?
De novo DSA has been shown to be a negative predictor of graft outcomes. However, the utility of routine DSA monitoring in the overall kidney…2015 American Transplant Congress
Novel Flow Cytometry Method for Detecting Complement-Fixing Blood Group IgG Antibody in ABO-Incompatible Renal Transplantation
【Background】We experienced a hyperacute rejection (HAR) in ABO-incompatible renal transplantation (ABO-I RTx) on POD 0. We hypothesized that complement-fixing IgG anti-A/B blood group antibody (anti-A/B…
