    Donor Lymphocytes in Peripheral Blood of Patients After Lung Transplantation Comprise High Frequencies of Killer Cell Immunoglobulin-like Receptor-positive T and NK Cell Subsets

    J. F. Kühne1, A. Hitz1, K. A. Bläsing1, B. Wiegmann2, R. Bellmàs Sanz1, F. Ius2, A. Haverich2, G. Warnecke2, C. S. Falk1

    1MHH, Institute of Transplant Immunology, Hannover, Germany, 2MHH, Department for Cardiothoracic, Transplantation and Vascular Surgery, Hannover, Germany

    *Purpose: For end-stage lung diseases, lung transplantation (LuTx) is the only curative treatment option. However, acute and chronic rejections are major limitations. Thus, a deeper…

    Immunohistochemical and Molecular Detection of NK Cells in Kidney Allografts with Antibody Mediated Rejection

    E. Farkash, J. Barnes, S. Anand

    Pathology, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI

    *Purpose: Molecular signatures specific to Natural Killer (NK) cells are closely associated with antibody mediated rejection (AMR) in transplant biopsies. We have developed an immunohistochemical…

    Analysis of the Mechanism of Liver-Resident NK Cells Activity via the Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor

    K. Sato, M. Ohira, Y. Imaoka, H. Ohdan

    Department of Gastroenterological and Transplant Surgery, Hiroshima University, Hiroshima, Japan

    *Purpose: Tumor recurrence is the main limitation of liver transplantation (LT) in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). We previously reported an adoptive immunotherapy approach that…

    Examination of the TIGIT/CD226 Axis in Kidney Transplant Recipients

    G. J. Kavalam, A. D. Desai, A. Chandraker, S. Tripathi

    Renal, Brigham and Women's Hospital, Boston, MA

    *Purpose: The T-cell immunoglobulin and immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motif domain (TIGIT) and CD226, two poliovirus receptor-like proteins, are an emerging group of immune checkpoints with…

    Decreased Anti-Tumor Activity of Liver-Resident NK Cells via IL-33 Associated with Portal Hypertension after Living Donor Liver Transplantation

    Y. Imaoka, M. Ohira, K. Sato, H. Ohdan

    Hiroshima Uni., Hiroshima, Japan

    *Purpose: It has been reported that increasing portal vein pressure after living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) was associated with a poor prognosis, risk factors for…

    Single Cell Profiling of PBMC Identifies Immune Populations Associated with High Risk of Early Acute Rejection

    W. Zhang, S. Farouk, Z. Sun, W. Huang, Z. Yi, J. Fu, C. Wei, M. Fribourg-Casajuana, C. He, P. Cravedi, B. Murphy

    Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, New York, NY

    *Purpose: Our previous transcriptomic analysis of pre-transplant peripheral blood revealed a 23-gene set predictive of early acute rejection (EAR) post kidney transplant (JCI Insight, 2019).…
