    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…

    Broadly Profiling the Activation Status of Circulating Immune Cells in Chronic Active Antibody Mediated Rejetion Reveals Increased CD38 and CD16 Expression on Monocytes and NK Cells

    K. Sablik, N. Litjens, M. Klepper, M. Betjes

    Erasmus MC, Rotterdam, Netherlands

    *Purpose: Chronic-active antibody mediated rejection (c-aABMR) contributes significantly to late renal allograft failure. Non-invasive biomarkers of c-aABMR are currently not available but could be valuable…
