Protective Immunity Against a Murine Epstein-Barr Virus Homolog is Preserved During CD11b-CD154 Blockade
Emory University Transplant Center, Emory University, Atlanta, GA
*Purpose: CD154 pathway antagonism has shown to be a promising target for inducing long-time graft survival, in some cases showing efficacy that is superior to…2021 American Transplant Congress
Pre-transplant Prognostic Nutritional Index Predicts Short-term Outcomes After Liver Transplantation
Transplant Institute, Henry Ford Hospital, Detroit, MI
*Purpose: To understand the importance of pre-transplant nutritional status in optimizing liver transplant outcomes.*Methods: The prognostic nutritional index (PNI) is a serum marker of nutrition…2021 American Transplant Congress
Harnessing Innate Lymphoid Cells to Prevent Graft-versus Host Disease
*Purpose: Determine whether human innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) can be isolated, expanded and used in cell-based therapies to prevent Graft-versus Host Disease (GvHD) .*Methods: ILC2s…2021 American Transplant Congress
The Absence of T Follicular Regulatory Cells Prolongs Germinal Center Reactivity in Transplantation
*Purpose: Deleterious alloantibodies result from T follicular helper (Tfh) cell-driven germinal center (GC) reactivity. T follicular regulatory (Tfr) cells are a subset of regulatory T…2021 American Transplant Congress
Tip60 Inhibitors Enhance Regulatory T Cells (Treg) Induction by Promoting Acetylation of Foxp3
*Purpose: TIP60, a histone/protein acetyltransferase essential for multiple functions in the cell, is involved in Foxp3 acetylation in Treg. Acetylation protects Foxp3 from degradation, and…2021 American Transplant Congress
Laminins Differentially Regulate Tolerogenic T Cell Migration and Homing to Lymph Nodes
1Surgery, UMB, Baltimore, MD, 2CVID, UMB, Baltimore, MD, 3Harvard University, Boston, MA
*Purpose: Laminin α5 (Lama5) and α4 (Lama4), which are produced by lymph node (LN) stromal cells, influence CD4 T cell migration and stimulation. We hypothesized…2020 American Transplant Congress
Cirrhosis-Driven Immune Dysfunction is Associated with Poor Response to DEB-TACE and Waitlist Dropout in Hepatocellular Carcinoma Patients While Awaiting Liver Transplantation
Ochsner Health System, New Orleans, LA
*Purpose: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) recurrence after transplantation is associated with higher tumor grade on explant, failure to respond to DEB-TACE, and pretreatment lymphopenia. We prospectively…2020 American Transplant Congress
Tonic-Signaling Chimeric Antigen Receptors Drive Exhaustion in Regulatory T Cells
*Purpose: Regulatory T cells (Tregs) and chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) Tregs are a promising cell therapy to prevent or treat autoimmune diseases or allograft rejection.…2020 American Transplant Congress
Unexpected Regulation of Foxp3+ Treg Production, Stability and Function by the Nuclear Co-Repressor, Sin3A
*Purpose: Foxp3+ T-regulatory (Treg) cells are crucial to immune homeostasis and self-tolerance, but the contributions to Tregs of the 4 large, multiprotein nuclear complexes (Sin3,…2020 American Transplant Congress
Preventing Allograft Rejection by Circrna FSCN1 Mediated Tolerogenic Dendritic Cells
Pathology, University of Western Ontario-LHSC, London, ON, Canada
*Purpose: Induction of immune tolerance is a major challenge in heart transplants. There is no robust treatment with fewer side effects for preventing chronic rejection.…
