B Lymphocytes Prevent Transplantation Tolerance in NOD Mice by Limiting CD4 Treg Function.
Pediatrics, Vanderbilt University, Nashville, TN.
IntroductionType 1 Diabetes is a significant barrier to islet transplant as grafts are subject to both alloimmunity and recurrent autoimmunity. No better is this clinical…2016 American Transplant Congress
Novel Function of CD4+ T Cell DEPTOR in Treg Homeostasis and Alloimmunity.
DEPTOR, a recently described modulator of PI-3K/mTOR signaling, is expressed by CD4+ T cells, and functions to modulate CD4+ Teff cell differentiation. Upon CD4+ T…2016 American Transplant Congress
Recall Alloantibody Production Is Driven by CD138+ Cells Proliferating in the Spleens: An Indication for Long-Lived Plasma Cell Activities and Potential Therapeutic Target.
Comprehensive Transplantation Center/Surgery, Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, Los Angeles, CA.
Background Donor-specific antibodies (DSA) generated in recall responses are produced by long-lived plasma cells (L-PC) residing in the bone marrows (BM). Mechanisms of L-PC activation,…2016 American Transplant Congress
Protective Effects of Nrf2 Over-Activation in Myeloid Cells During Hepatic Ischemia Reperfusion Correlates with Stat3 Signaling in Hepatocytes.
Ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) is a consequence of liver resection and liver transplantation. The Nrf2-antioxidant response element pathway is a key mediator of cellular defense against…2016 American Transplant Congress
Expansion of Regulatory B-Cells and Their Potential Role in Transplantation Tolerance.
Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, MA.
IntroductionRegulatory B (Bregs) cells, B cells which produce IL-10, have been shown to play a critical role in immune homeostasis and autoimmunity models. Despite the…2016 American Transplant Congress
Alloantibody Suppression by Bruton Tyrosine Kinase Antagonist Ibrutinib Is Associated with a Moderate Splenic B-Cell Reduction.
Comprehensive Transplantation Center/Surgery, Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, Los Angeles, CA.
Background Bruton tyrosine kinase (Btk) is specifically required for activation of the B-cell antigen receptor signaling pathway that contributes to the initiation and maintenance of…2016 American Transplant Congress
Activating Transcription Factor 5 (ATF5) Regulates Liver Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury.
Activating transcription factor 5 (ATF5), a member of the ATF/cAMP response element-binding proteins, is extremely highly expressed in the liver, the significance of which is…2016 American Transplant Congress
Transfer of Donor-Derived Exosomes to Recipient Ag-Presenting Cells Is Critical for Allograft Recognition.
After organ transplantation, T cells are primed against donor MHC molecules by donor dendritic cells (DCs) mobilized from the graft. Nevertheless, evidence suggests that donor…2016 American Transplant Congress
Impact of CXCR4/CXCL12 Blockade on Normal Plasma Cells In Vivo.
Department of Surgery, Division of Transplant Surgery, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN.
Introduction:Plasma cells (PCs) are a major source of alloantibody in transplant patients.They are resistant to current therapy. Since receptor/ligand interactions in the stromal environment are…2016 American Transplant Congress
Sphingosine-1 Phosphate Receptor 1 Agonist SEW2871 Ameliorates Hepatocellular Injury on Ischemic Reperfusion in Mice: A New Therapeutic Target.
Introduction: We had reported that activated protein C (APC) administration had cytoprotective effects on hepatic ischemic reperfusion (IR) injury in rat and mice models. Recent…
