Engineered IL-2 Plus Calcineurin Inhibitor Synergistically Expands Regulatory T Cells Transduced with Engineered IL-2 Receptor and Facilitates Establishment of Transplantation Tolerance
*Purpose: Clinical trials for regulatory T cell (Treg) therapy in organ transplant has shown promising results. However, it is still under the debate which drugs…2022 American Transplant Congress
CCR2 Antagonism Blocks Microbiota Pro-Inflammatory Effects on Lymph Node Architecture
1University of Maryland School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD, 2University of Maryland, Baltimore, MD
*Purpose: Fecal microbiota transfer (FMT) of Desulfovibrio desulfuricans (Desulfo) triggers a pro-inflammatory immune state, causing decreased laminin α4:α5 ratios in the lymph node (LN), increased…2022 American Transplant Congress
Chronic Ethanol Exposure Prolongs Murine Allograft Survival
Department of Surgery, Emory University, Atlanta, GA
*Purpose: Alcoholic liver disease is the leading indication for liver transplantation in the United States, and patients are increasingly transplanted without the traditional six month…2022 American Transplant Congress
Infiltrating CD8+ Cytotoxic T Cells Are Converted to a Regulatory Phenotype in Accepted Kidney Allografts
*Purpose: Mouse kidney allografts are spontaneously accepted in select, fully-mismatched donor-recipient strain combinations (i.e. DBA/2J to C57BL/6 (B6)) without any immunosuppressive drug treatment. We have…2022 American Transplant Congress
Recipient Neutrophil Production of Myeloperoxidase is Required for NK Cell Activation During Acute Antibody Mediated Allograft Rejection
*Purpose: Dysregulated donor-specific antibody (DSA) responses are induced in B6.CCR5-/- mice transplanted with complete MHC mismatched A/J kidney allografts and are required for rejection of…2022 American Transplant Congress
Pro- and Anti-Tolerogenic Microbiota Induce Distinct Gut Microbiome Metabolic Pathways and Loco-Regional Immune Responses
1University of Maryland School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD, 2University of Maryland, Baltimore, MD
*Purpose: Colitis-associated Desulfovibrio desulfuricans (Desulfo) induces pro-inflammatory cytokine responses in dendritic cell and macrophage cell lines as well as primary cells. In contrast, Bifidobacterium pseudolongum…2022 American Transplant Congress
Bioink Based on the DECM for 3D-Bioprinting of Bionic Pancreas – First Results of Animal
*Purpose: Tissue engineering is an interdisciplinary field involving activities based on two interrelated areas: developing new methods to repair, regenerate and replace damaged tissues and…2022 American Transplant Congress
P2X7R Inhibition Impairs In Vitro Training of Macrophages
*Purpose: Macrophage training and ATP-mediated P2X7R signaling are unrelated key elements of the innate immune response associated with allotransplant rejection. In the present study, we…2022 American Transplant Congress
Type 1 Natural Killer T-cells: Key Mediators of Ischemia- Reperfusion Injury in Hepatic Steatosis
*Purpose: Hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) poses a significant risk in liver transplantation and hepatic resection and is further exacerbated by hepatic steatosis. Type 1 Natural…2022 American Transplant Congress
Portal Hypertension Inhibits the Antitumor Effect of Liver-Resident NK Cells Through IL-33 Signal
Hiroshima University, Hiroshima, Japan
