A P2X7R Mutation with Hypermetabolic T Cells, Th1/Th17 Skewing and Reduced Cardiac Allograft Survival.
Background. The purinergic receptor-7 (P2X7R), primarily expressed on lymphocytes, senses ATP released extracellularly during cell damage and regulates T cell activation.Methods. In 640 heart transplant…2016 American Transplant Congress
miR-21 in Chronic Allograft Vasculopathy.
Background. Heart transplantation is the most effective therapy to prolong life expectancy in patients with end-stage heart failure. However, despite much progress in the field,…2016 American Transplant Congress
A Sustained Viral Response Achieved with Sofosbuvir/Ledipasvir May Increase the Incidence of Acute Cellular Rejection Post Liver Transplantation.
Transplant Surgery, New York University Langone Medical Center, New York, NY.
Acute cellular rejection following liver transplantation has decreased in incidence with the use of potent immunosuppressive agents, affecting less than 25 percent of liver transplantation…2016 American Transplant Congress
De Novo Anti-HLA DSA Characteristics and Subclinical Antibody Mediated Kidney Allograft Injuries.
Nagoya daini red cross hospital, Nagoya, Japan.
Background It has been reported that de novo donor-specific HLA antibody (dn DSA) production is associated with chronic antibody-mediated rejection (CAMR) which leads to poor…2016 American Transplant Congress
MicroRNAs in Urinary Sediments as Non-Invasive Tool to Detect Acute Rejection After Kidney Transplantation.
MicroRNAs in urine are suitable targets for non-invasive detection of acute rejection (AR), since they represent relatively stable analytes. Indeed, we found that PCR signals…2016 American Transplant Congress
Plasma Alemtuzumab Levels Show Great Interpatient Variability, but Are Not Associated with Late Acute Rejection in Simultaneous Pancreas-Kidney Recipients.
Introduction: Alemtuzumab induction followed by a steroid-free, tacrolimus (Tac) and mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) based regimen effectively prevented acute rejection after simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplantation (SPKT). Acute…2016 American Transplant Congress
Post-Transplant Reduction of Long Lived Plasma Cells from Peripheral Circulation Is Associated with Acute Rejection in Kidney Transplant Recipients.
Introduction:Plasma cells (PC) are usually defined functionally as antibody secreting cells (ASC). Depending upon their life span, they could either be short lived or long…2016 American Transplant Congress
Myeloid-Derived Suppressor Cells (MDSC) Accumulate in Intestinal Transplant (IT) Patients.
[Background] IT is an efficacious treatment for chronic intestinal failure. Recent advance of immunosuppressive regimens have decreased the rejection rate and improved patient survival. The…2016 American Transplant Congress
Assessment of Postoperative Glycemic Control in Orthotopic Heart Transplant Recipients.
NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital, Columbia University, New York.
Hyperglycemia may occur after solid organ transplantation because of stress, immunosuppressants, and diabetes mellitus. Glycemic control has been shown to decrease morbidity and mortality in…2016 American Transplant Congress
Inflammation Amplifier, a Chemokine Inducer in Non-Immune Cells in Kidney Transplantation Graft.
Introduction: Inflammation amplifier (IA), a local chemokine inducer in non-immune cells is induced by the simultaneous activation of NFκB and STATs (IL-17, TNFα, and IL-6)…
