Eupatilin Ameliorates Tacrolimus Induced Nephrotoxicity via Inhibiting Apoptosis
Surgery, University of Ulsan, Gangneung Asan Hospital, Gangneung, Korea, Republic of
*Purpose: Tacrolimus (FK506) is an immunosuppressant agent that is frequently used to prevent rejection of solid organs upon transplant. However, nephrotoxicity due to apoptosis and…2018 American Transplant Congress
Overexpression of BAX, NOL3, and XIAP Apoptotic Genes Participates in Calcineurin Inhibitors Nephrotoxicity: New Insights into Chronic Allograft Dysfunction
Introduction: Calcineurin inhibitors toxicity (CNIT) is a factor that limit the outcome of renal transplantation graft. The hypoxia causes histological data as nodular hyalinosis, hyalinosis,…2018 American Transplant Congress
Dehydropeptidase-Iinhibitor Reduces Tacrolimus-Induced Kidney Injury by Anti-Oxidative and Anti-Apoptotic Effect
Background:Cilastatin is an inhibitor of dehydropeptidase-I which enhances the antibacterial activity of imipenem.Dehydropeptidase I is associated with not only the metabolism of the enzyme but…2018 American Transplant Congress
Klotho Enhances FoxO3-Mediated Manganese Superoxide Dismutase Expression by Negatively Regulating PI3K/AKT Pathway during Tacrolimus-Induced Oxidative Stress
Mammalian members of the forkhead box protein O (FoxO) class of transcription factors are implicated in the regulation of oxidative stress, and FoxO proteins are…2018 American Transplant Congress
Outcomes in Liver Transplant Patients on Renal Sparing Protocol
As liver transplant outcomes have improved, long term native kidney function has taken a critical role in patient survival. Calcineurin inhibitors (CNIs), such as Tacrolimus…2017 American Transplant Congress
Age-Related Differences in Gene Expression Among Kidney Allografts with Normal Histology and Calcineurin Inhibitor Nephrotoxicity.
Background Most biomarker research first occurs in adult populations, with consequent extrapolation to children. However, age-related differences may impact gene expression, such as variations in…2016 American Transplant Congress
Genomic-Derived Markers to Identify Calcineurin Inhibitor Nephrotoxicity in Pediatric Kidney Transplant Recipients.
Background:Calcineurin inhibitor nephrotoxicity (CNIT) is a well-known contributor to chronic allograft dysfunction in kidney transplant recipients (KTRs). Pediatric KTRs are particularly at risk given their…2016 American Transplant Congress
Unexpected Early Calcineurin Inhibitor Nephrotoxicity in Pediatric Kidney Transplant Recipients.
Background: Calcineurin inhibitors effectively suppress the recipient immune response and facilitate early success in kidney transplantation. However, these drugs are potent nephrotoxins and contribute to…2016 American Transplant Congress
Early Proteomic Predictors of Late Chronic Kidney Disease in Liver Transplant Recipients.
1Northwestern, Chicago; 2Baylor, Dallas.
Background: A high proportion of patients develop chronic kidney disease (CKD) after liver transplantation (LT). However, the ability to better select patients for nephroprotective interventions…2016 American Transplant Congress
Quadruple Induction Regimen with Basiliximab, Everolimus, Mycophenolate and Very Low Dose Tacrolimus Improves Graft Function without Increase in the Incidence of Microvascular Inflammation or De Novo Donor Specific Antibody Compared to the Standard Triple Regimen.
Department of Urology and Renal Transplantation Surgery, Sapporo Hokuyu Hospital, Sapporo, Japan.
Objectives: Nephrotoxicity of calcineurin inhibitors (CNI) in kidney allografts has been a significant problem even with low exposure regimens. On the other hand, CNI-free regimen…
