Mid-Term Outcomes after Treatment for Antibody-Mediated Rejection by De Novo Donor-Specific HLA Antibody in Renal Transplant Recipients: Does Early Treatment Lead to Better Outcomes?
*Purpose: De novo donor-specific HLA antibody (DSA) and antibody-mediated rejection (ABMR) are strongly associated with late allograft loss in renal transplant recipients. However, the impact…2020 American Transplant Congress
Foxp3+ Innate and TGF-ß+ Adaptive Regulatory Immune Cells in Quilty Lesions are Associated with Acceptance of Heart Allograft
University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, Dallas, TX
*Purpose: To evaluate the cellular composition of Quilty lesions in heart transplant biopsies and their association with acceptance or rejection of cardiac allografts.*Methods: This study…2020 American Transplant Congress
Next Generation Sequencing Based Analysis of the T-Cell Receptor Repertoire Reveals an Increase of Alloreactive T-Cell Clones after Kidney Transplantation
*Purpose: The development of the alloreactive T-cell repertoire after kidney transplantation (KTX) is not yet fully understood. The combination of mixed lymphocyte reaction (MLR) and…2020 American Transplant Congress
Accommodating Increasing Volumes without Knocking Down Walls: Update on an Infusion Center’s Growth
Comprehensive Transplant Center, Cedars Sinai Medical Center, Los Angeles, CA
*Purpose: An increase in transplants performed at the medical center in comparison to the limited availability of outpatient infusion chairs and home infusion companies compelled…2020 American Transplant Congress
Urine Donor Derived Cell Free DNA Aids in the Diagnosis of BK Polyomavirus Nephropathy in Kidney Transplant Recipients with BK Viruria
*Purpose: BK polyomavirus nephropathy (BKVN) are important cause of dysfunction and failure of renal transplants, which is similar to T cell mediated rejection (TCMR) in…2020 American Transplant Congress
Impact of Timing of T Cell Mediated Rejection in the First Year after Kidney Transplantation
University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, Pittsburgh, PA
*Purpose: To evaluate the impact of timing of T-cell mediated rejection (TCMR) occurrence in the first year after kidney transplantation (KT).*Methods: Single center retrospective cohort…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 DSA Class II is Associated with Immunosuppressive Monotherapy and Increased Risk for Graft Fibrosis, Chronic Rejection and Graft Loss
*Purpose: Recent studies have suggested a negative impact of class 2 DSA on short term outcome of OLT recipients. The aim of this study was…2020 American Transplant Congress
High-Activity Classical and Alternative Complement Pathway Genotypes – Association with Donor-Specific Antibody-Triggered Injury and Renal Allograft Survival
*Purpose: Complement may contribute to donor-specific antibody (DSA)-triggered transplant injury. Here, we investigated whether the intrinsic strength of classical (CP) and alternative complement pathways (AP)…2020 American Transplant Congress
Belatacept Provides Superior Inhibition of Donor Specific Antibody Formation in Kidney Transplant Recipients with Acute Rejection
Emory Transplant Center, Emory University School of Medicine, Atlanta, GA
*Purpose: The factors responsible for chronic renal allograft dysfunction and premature graft loss are incompletely understood and likely multifactorial. Immunologic injury partially attributable to the…
