Accelerated Bronchiolitis Obliterans after Lung Transplant Promoted by the ATG16L1 rs2241880 Mutation is Coupled to Mitochondrial Damage and Metabolic Alterations in Monocyte-Derived Alveolar Macrophages
*Purpose: Bronchiolitis obliterans (BOS) remains a major cause of death for lung transplant recipients, and the mechanisms that drive BOS remain poorly understood and 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
Induction of Transplant Tolerance by Modulating the Metabolic Stress Pathways
Houston Methodist Research Institute, Houston, TX
*Purpose: T cell activation and effector differentiation precede graft rejection, and this process is associated with robust metabolic burst to meet the energy demand of…2020 American Transplant Congress
A Novel Polymer Product, APP-103, Reduces IRI-Induced Damage and Promotes Functional Improvement in Syngeneic Models of Renal Transplantation
*Purpose: Our data introduce APP-103 as a novel, non-toxic and site-activating therapeutic approach that effectively ameliorates the consequences of ischemia/reperfusion injury in solid organ transplantation.*Methods:…2019 American Transplant Congress
The Effect of the Beneficial Activity of α-Lipoic Acid Treatment Depend on the Quality of the Graft Kidneys
*Purpose: In a previous preliminary study, with a small number of patients, we observed that the treatment of the donor and the recipient with the…2019 American Transplant Congress
New Reactive Oxygen Species Scavenger Prevents Injury in Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury Model
University of Wisconsin, Madison, WI
*Purpose: Despite the success of preservation solutions, Ischemia-Reperfusion (IR) injury remains a significant problem for all solid organ transplants. As a result, an important, unmet…2019 American Transplant Congress
Ceria-Zirconia Nanoparticles as an Enhanced Antioxidant Attenuates Apoptosis of Human Kidney Proximal Tubular Epithelial Cells in Hypoxia
*Purpose: Ischemia/reperfusion injury, resulting from hypoxic damage within a graft, is the leading cause of delayed graft function and graft rejection. Various mechanisms have been…2019 American Transplant Congress
The Adapter Protein TSAd Regulates Mitochondrial Lck Activity and is Potent to Enhance Immunoregulation Following Transplantation
*Purpose: T cell Specific Adaptor Protein (TSAd, encoded by the SH2D2A gene) is an intracellular adapter molecule that binds Lck and functions to elicit T…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…2017 American Transplant Congress
Signal Inhibitory Regulatory Protein-α Regulates Pathologic Reactive Oxygen Species in Acute Kidney Injury.
Background: Ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI) is mediated by a complex cascade of pro-inflammatory and oxidative processes. We have reported that signal regulatory inhibitory protein (SIRP)-α…
