The Innate Immune-System May Play an Enhanced Role in Acute Cellular Rejection in Patients on Belatacept-Based Immunosuppression.
Purpose. The incidence of acute cellular rejection (ACR) in kidney transplant patients on Belatacept (Bela-ACR) is higher than in those with CNI-based regimens (CNI-ACR). However,…2017 American Transplant Congress
Binding of Antigens by Its Specific Antibodies Results in Exosome Formation Leading to Rejection of Syngeneic Murine Cardiac Grafts.
Norton Thoracic Institute, St. Joseph's Hospital and Medical Center, Phoenix
Background: Antibody binding to its antigen can activate complement cascades leading to cell death. In addition, it can activate intracellular signals leading to rejection of…2017 American Transplant Congress
Impact of Bariatric Surgery on Risk of Organ Rejection Among Solid Organ Transplant Recipients.
Medicine, Northwestern University, Chicago, IL; Surgery, Northwestern University, Chicago, IL
Background: Obesity is a common condition that contributes to organ failure. Bariatric surgery is an effective surgical therapy for obesity and has been performed both…2017 American Transplant Congress
A Combination of Anti-CD40L-Ab, Rapamycin, and Donor Apoptotic Cells Prolongs Allogeneic Pancreatic Islet Survival in Sensitized Mice by Regulating Memory Responses.
Accelerated rejection of allografts has been a clinical challenge in solid organ transplantation particularly in sensitized recipients with donor-specific antibodies (DSA) and memory cell repertoires.…2017 American Transplant Congress
Gene Expression Signature of Subclinical Allograft Kidney ABMR Compared to Clinical ABMR.
BackgroundAntibody-mediated rejection (ABMR) is characterized by a heterogeneous presentation. It occurs in clinically stable patients (sABMR) or in patients with allograft dysfunction (ABMR), but only…2017 American Transplant Congress
Impact of Cytokine Gene Polymorphism on Clinical Outcome of Renal Transplantation.
Cytokine production is subject to genetic regulation, in such a way that gene polymorphisms at the level of promoter or coding regions can alter their…2017 American Transplant Congress
Impact of Complement Component 3 Single Nuclear Polymorphisms on Renal Transplant Recipients with Antibody-Mediated Rejection.
Urology, The First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University, Nanjing, Jiangsu, China
Impact of complement component 3 single nuclear polymorphisms on renal transplant recipients with antibody-mediated rejectionZijie Wang, Zhijian Han, Jun Tao, Ruoyun Tan, Min GuDepartment of…2017 American Transplant Congress
Incidence of Donor-Specific Anti-HLA Antibodies in Non-HLA Sensitized Patients Given Tacrolimus Once or Twice Daily During the First Two Years Post-Transplantation.
Department of Nephrology and Organ Transplantation, Toulouse University Hospital, Toulouse, France
Donor-specific anti-HLA antibody (DSA)-mediated rejection (AMR) is a main cause of graft loss after kidney transplantation. Non-adherence is a risk factor for AMR and graft…2017 American Transplant Congress
Preservation of Musculoskeletal Components in Vascularized Composite Allograft Skin Rejection.
University of Maryland School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD
Background: Severe or chronic rejection of vascularized composite allografts (VCA) has resulted in graft loss and patient deaths. 'Split tolerance' has been defined in patterns…2017 American Transplant Congress
Death After Kidney Transplantation: Assessment of Pre- and Peri-Transplant Risk Factors and of Time-Varying Risk Factors from the Post-Transplant Course.
Deaths over a period of up to 10 years post-transplantation (Tx) and the associated risk factors were examined in patients (pts) with protocol biopsies (total…
