    Donor Specific Expansion of Regulatory T-Cells Was Associated With Allograft Tolerance Induced By Transient Mixed Chimerism in Nonhuman Primates

    K. Hotta, A. Aoyama, T. Ohura, M. Tonsho, Y. Yamada, J. Allan, J. Madsen, B. Cosimi, G. Benichou, T. Kawai.

    Transplant Center, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, MA.

    Background: We have previously reported successful induction of solid organ allograft tolerance in nonhuman primates (NHP) via a mixed chimerism approach. Since these recipients achieved…

    CD27low NK Cells Prolong Allograft Survival in Mice By Inhibiting CD8+ T Cell Responses Through Controlling Graft-Derived Donor DCs

    A. Kroemer,1,2 M. Lantow,1 E. Eggenhofer,1 M. Sabet-Baktach,1 P. Renner,1 H. Schlitt,1 E. Geissler.1

    1Department of Surgery, University Hospital Regensburg, Regensburg, Germany; 2Georgetown Transplant Institute, Washington, DC.

    The underlying mechanisms by which distinct NK cell subsets promote either allograft rejection or survival remain unclear. Here, we tested the hypothesis that distinctively mature…

    Depression of Complement Regulatory Factors in Human and Rat Renal Grafts in Association With Progress of Acute Cellular Rejection

    K. Yamanaka,1 T. Kato,1 Y. Kakuta,1 T. Abe,1 R. Imamura,1 A. Maeda,2 S. Miyagawa,2 N. Nonomura.1

    1Urology, Osaka University Graduate School of Medicine, Suita, Osaka, Japan; 2Organ Transplantation, Osaka University Graduate School of Medicine, Suita, Osaka, Japan.

    Introduction and ObjectiveIt is commonly known that complements play important roles in antibody mediated rejection in renal transplantation. However, the association of complements with progression…

    The Impact of Microcirculation Inflammation in Predicting Treatment Response for Late Onset Antibody Mediated Rejection

    J. Lee,1 J. Lee,1 B. Lim,2 B. Kim,3 M. Ju,1 M. Kim,1 S. Kim,1 Y. Kim,1 H. Jeong,2 K. Park,4 K. Huh.1

    1Department of Transplantation Surgery, Yonsei University Health System, Seoul, Republic of Korea; 2Department of Pathology, Yonsei University Health System, Seoul, Republic of Korea; 3Department of Internal Medicine, Yonsei University Health System, Seoul, Republic of Korea; 4Department of Surgery, CHA Bundang Medical Center, Bundang, Republic of Korea.

    BackgroundThere have been marked advances of immunosuppression. However, management of late onset antibody-mediated rejection (AMR) after 6 months is still challenging. Despite important diagnostic and…

    Effect of Antibody Mediated Rejection on Long-Term Renal Allograft Function

    M. John, A. Smith, I. Dortonne, A. Paramesh, M. Killackey, B. Lee, R. Zhang, J. Buell.

    Transplant Institute, Tulane University, New Orleans, LA.

    Historically we had poor understanding of chronic rejection attributing it to hypertension and non-compliance. However in the last decade we have begun to understand the…

    Aging Enhances Immunosuppressives Capacities of Tacrolimus By Functional Changes of CD4+ T-Cells

    F. Krenzien,1 M. Quante,1 A. ElKhal,1 H. Uehara,1 R. Abdi,2 B. Slegtenhorst,1 H. Biefer,1 S. Tullius.1

    1Transplant Surgery Research Laboratory and Division of Transplant Surgery, Brigham and Women's Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA; 2Transplantation Research Center, Renal Division, Brigham and Women's Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA.

    Immunosenescence has broad consequences on alloimmunity and immunosuppression in the elderly may require age-adaptation. Here, we investigated the influence of aging on the effectivity of…

    Microvascular (MIA) and Interstitial (i) Inflammation Influence Late Death-Censored Graft Failure (DCGF) After Kidney Transplantation

    R. Gaston,1 A. Fieberg,2 R. Leduc,2 J. Connett,2 F. Cosio,3 S. Gourishankar,4 J. Grande,3 L. Hunsicker,5 B. Kasiske,6 J. Cecka,7 A. Matas,2 D. Rush.8

    Use of RNA Sequencing for Discovery of Markers of Accommodation in Surveillance Biopsies from Recipients of an ABO-Incompatible Renal Transplant

    A. McLean,2 K. Dominy,1 A. Sosinsky,1 M. Mueller,1 J. Galliford,2 T. Cook,1,2 C. Roufosse.1,2

    1Imperial College, London, United Kingdom; 2Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust, London, United Kingdom.

    Recipients of an ABO incompatible transplant have circulating anti-AB antibodies, A and/or B antigens expressed on endothelium and usually C4d deposition on the endothelium, yet…

    A Non-Invasive Urinary Common Rejection Module (uCRM) Gene Expression Score Enables Accurate Discrimination of Acute Rejection in Kidney Transplant Patients

    O. Bestard,1,2 T. Sigdel,1 Y. Ng,1 S.-C. Hsieh,1 S. Roedder,1 N. Dvorak,1 T. Tran,1 M. Sarwal.1

    1Department of Transplant Surgery, UCSF, San Francisco, CA; 2Kidney Transplant Unit, Bellvitge University Hospital, Barcelona, CAT, Spain.

    A common rejection module (CRM) consisting of 11 genes expressed on allograft biopsies was recently shown to be highly accurate to discriminate patients undergoing acute…
