Tissue Specific Antigen-presentation in VCA Transplantation
*Purpose: Vascular Composite Tissue Allotransplantation (VCA) has become a clinical reality. High frequencies of acute rejections remain an unsolved problem. Here, we delineated components of…2021 American Transplant Congress
Marginal Zone B Cells Support Donor-Specific Alloantibody Responses to Heart Allografts
Inflammation and Immunity, Cleveland Clinic, Cleveland, OH
*Purpose: Production of high affinity isotype-switched donor specific alloantibodies (DSA) after transplantation is associated with germinal center formation by follicular (FO) B cells whereas the…2021 American Transplant Congress
Laminins Differentially Regulate Adaptive Alloimmune Responses
1Surgery, UMB, Baltimore, MD, 2CVID, UMB, Baltimore, MD, 3Harvard University, Boston, MA
*Purpose: Lymph node (LN) stromal cell expressed laminin α4 (Lama4) and laminin α5 (Lama5) fibers are associated with tolerance and immunity, respectively. They regulate cell…2021 American Transplant Congress
TOLS are Novel Regulatory TLOs with A B Cell Signature
1Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, MA, 2Co-Senior Authors, Boston, MA
*Purpose: Our previous studies suggest that a DBA/2 kidney graft is accepted by a MHC-fully mis-matched C57/BL6 recipient. Accepted renal allografts exhibited lymphoid like structures…2021 American Transplant Congress
Increased T Cell Cross-dressing in Accepted Kidney Allografts
*Purpose: Kidney allografts transplanted across certain mouse strain combinations (e.g. DBA/2 to B6) develop tolerance while other combinations do not (e.g. B6 to DBA/2). We…2021 American Transplant Congress
Single-Cell RNA-seq Identifies Intra-Graft Population Heterogeneity in Acute Heart Allograft Rejection in the Mouse
*Purpose: Transplant rejection remains a major barrier to graft survival and involves a diversity of cell types. But the heterogeneity in a given cell type…2021 American Transplant Congress
Laminin Alpha 4 and Alpha5 Differentially Regulate Lymph Node Tolerogenic Structure
1Surgery, UMB, Baltimore, MD, 2CVID, UMB, Baltimore, MD, 3Harvard University, Boston, MD
*Purpose: Lymph node (LN) stromal laminins α4 (Lama4) and α5 (Lama5) are associated with tolerance and immunity, respectively. We hypothesized that stromal Lama4 and Lama5…2021 American Transplant Congress
The Gut Microbiotainduces Local and Systemic Immune Modulation
*Purpose: We previously demonstrated that gut microbiome alterations, through fecal microbiota transfer (FMT) or single bacteria transfer, had specific immune effects for cardiac allograft outcome.…2021 American Transplant Congress
Inhibition of Fatty Acid Beta-Oxidation Prolongs Heart Allograft Survival
Surgery, Washington University School of Medicine, Saint Louis, MO
*Purpose: To test the therapeutic efficacy of pharmacological inhibition of fatty acid beta-oxidation (FAO) on acute heart allograft survival.*Methods: We used a heterotopic Balb/c donor…2021 American Transplant Congress
Re-Transplantation of Mouse Kidney Grafts to Study Local Immune Responses
Starzl Transplantation Institution, Pittsburgh, PA
*Purpose: Mouse kidney transplantation has been widely used to study the immune response to allogeneic grafts. This response includes a circulating systemic compartment and a…
