Platelets Stimulate Liver Regeneration After Partial Liver Transplantation
GI and HBP Surgery, University of Tsukuba, Tsukuba, Japan
*Purpose: Living donor liver transplant (LDLT) can sometimes be associated with impaired regeneration and severe ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury in the liver graft, resulting in small-for-size…2021 American Transplant Congress
Galectin-3 Blockade Can Decrease Reperfusion Injury in Response to Ischemia in a Rat Hind Limb Transplant Model
1University of Colorado, Aurora, CO, 2University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, Ann Arbor, MI
*Purpose: Vascularized composite allograft (VCA) transplant is technically feasible and results in successful clinical outcomes. However, skin and muscle containing VCA is highly susceptible to…2020 American Transplant Congress
Impact of Extracorporeal Photopheresis in a Full-Mismatch Kidney Transplant Rat Model
*Purpose: Extracorporeal photopheresis (ECP) is an immunomodulatory cell therapy based on the infusion of autologous cellular products exposed to ultraviolet light (UV), in the presence…2020 American Transplant Congress
Development of a Novel Multidrug Combination to Defat Steatotic Rat Liver via Normothermic Machine Perfusion
*Purpose: Hepatic steatosis is now the leading cause of liver discards in deceased donors. Previous studies (Yarmush et al., Y defatting) have successfully reduced the…2020 American Transplant Congress
ANG-3777, A Hepatic Growth Factor Mimetic, Attenuates Mercuric Chloride-Induced Renal Dysfunction and Mortality in Rats
Angion Biomedica, Uniondale, NY
*Purpose: ANG-3777 is a small-molecule mimetic of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF). In vitro models have shown ANG-3777 to have protective effects in renal cell lines,…2020 American Transplant Congress
Cervical Total Arterial Anastomosis Mouse-to-Rat Heterotopic Heart Xenotransplantation
Organ Transplant Center, The First Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat-sen University, Guangzhou, China
*Purpose: Xenotransplantation is an effective way to solve the problem of donor shortage. However, clinical use of xenotransplantation is currently limited due to immunological challenges.…2020 American Transplant Congress
Metformin Improves Biomarkers of Calcineurin Inhibitor Related Nephrotoxicity
Department of Nephrology, Prince of Wales Hospital, Randwick, Australia
*Purpose: Calcineurin Inhibitors (CNIs) prevent transplant rejection but cause significant nephrotoxicity. Biomarkers of CNI nephrotoxicity could help drug dosing and improve long-term graft outcomes. As…2020 American Transplant Congress
Two Novel Methods to Establish Rat Kidney Transplantation Model
Jiangsu Province Hospital, Nanjing, China
*Purpose: Rat kidney transplantation model is a standard animal model for the anti-rejection research of kidney transplantation. However, the current methods of the model require…2020 American Transplant Congress
Oral Administration of Nano-Sized Silicon Particles Regulates Gene Expression Related to Oxidative Stress and Attenuates Rat Renal Ischemia Reperfusion Injury
*Purpose: Organ ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI) is unavoidable in kidney transplantation and induces reactive oxygen species and causes organ damage. Although the effectiveness of hydrogen…2020 American Transplant Congress
Rat Hind Limb Transplant Model to Assess Vascularized Composite Allograft (VCA) Inflammation and Ischemia Reperfusion Injury
*Purpose: Vascularized composite allografts are potential surgical solutions for patients with traumatic or disfiguring injuries but are highly immunogenic and require elevated levels of immunosuppression.…
