    Donor AKI Does Not Adversely Affect the Outcome Following DCD Kidney Transplant.

    I. Qaqish, D. Haakinson, K. Reddy, M. Smith, H. Khamash, R. Heilman.

    Mayo Clinic, Phoenix, AZ.

    BackgroundTransplanting kidneys from donation after cardiac death (DCD) donors has been associated with good outcome, but the impact of added donor AKI on the outcome…

    Immunosuppressive Actions of CLI95 and CORM401 on TLR4 in Renal Ischemia Reperfusion Injury.

    P. Luke,1,2,5 G. Cepinskas,1,4 H. Alharbi,3,5 A. Haig,3,5 R. Bhattacharjee.1,2,5

    1Matthew Mailing Centre, London Health Sciences Centre, London, Canada; 2Surgery, Western University, London, Canada; 3Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Western University, London, Canada.

    Background: Kidneys from all donor sources are highly sensitive to ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI). However, grafts donated after cardiac death (DCD) sustain an increased incidence of…

    Molecular Correlates of Atrophy-Fibrosis in Human Kidney Transplants Provides a New Model of Renal Fibrosis

    J. Venner, K. Famulski, P. Halloran.

    University of Alberta, Edmonton, Canada.

    We studied the effect of time post-transplant on atrophy-fibrosis (AF) and the molecular associations with AF in 703 kidney transplant indication biopsies (bx) 3 days…

    Gene Expression Profiles Indicate That Many Discarded Kidneys Are Potentially Transplantable

    K. Famulski,1 S. Niederhaus,2 J. Reeve,1 J. Bromberg,2 P. Halloran.

    1University of Alberta, Edmonton, Canada; 2University of Marlyland, Baltimore.

    We previously showed that the molecular kidney injury-repair response (AKI score) in implantation core biopsies (Bx) predict future graft function better than histology. This could…

    Characteristics and Consequences of Renal Allograft Rejections Due to Nonadherence

    S. Patel, S. Kuten, J. Everett, J. Loucks-DeVos, L. Gaber, A. Gaber, R. Knight.

    Houston Methodist Hospital, Houston.

    Non-adherence (NA) with immunosuppressive medications is associated with increased healthcare costs, rejection risk, and graft loss. NA is difficult to measure, however, and is often…

    Profound Effect of HDAC2 Deletion on Renal Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury Is Intrinsic to the Kidney and Includes Protection Against Cold Ischemia

    D. Aufhauser, Jr.,1 Z. Wang,1 S. Cheraghlou,1 T. Bhatti,2 W. Hancock,2,3 M. Levine.1,4

    1Department of Surgery, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, PA; 2Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, Philadelphia, PA; 3Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, PA; 4Department of Surgery, The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, Philadelphia, PA.

    Introduction: Histone/protein deacetylases (HDACs) regulate gene expression by modifying chromatin accessibility and protein acetylation. We have previously found that deletion of HDAC2 protects from renal…

    Proteasome Activation During Renal Cold Storage and Transplantation: A Novel Pathway for Mitochondrial Destruction?

    N. Parajuli, L. MacMillan-Crow.

    Pharmacology and Toxicology, University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, Little Rock, AR.

    Purpose: Renal cold storage (CS) is considered to be an alloantigen-independent risk factor for long-term transplant outcome. The precise molecular mechanisms responsible for CS-related renal…

    The Role of Inflammasome Components in Renal Tubular Epithelial Cell Injury

    S. Kasimsetty, A. Shigeoka, D. McKay.

    Medicine, UCSD, La Jolla, CA.

    Background:Inflammasomes are multiprotein complexes of pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) recognized as key triggers of cellular injury. TLRs provide the first signal for induction of the…

    Post-Transplant Changes in Serum Creatinine and Beta-2 Microglobulin Predict Acute Tubular Necrosis in the Early Post-Transplant Period

    P. Liu,1 A. Djamali,1,2 D. Kaufman,2,1 B. Astor.1

    1Department of Medicine, University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health, Madison, WI; 2Department of Surgery, University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health, Madison, WI.

    Purpose: To evaluate the utility of early post-transplant changes in serum creatinine (SCr) and beta-2 microglobulin (B2M) in differentiating acute tubular necrosis (ATN) and other…

    Role of Complement in Mediating Pericyte Trans-Differentiation in Resident Myofibroblasts: A New Hypothesis On Vascular Rarefaction in Renal Ischemia/Reperfusion (I/R) Injury

    G. Castellano,1 R. Franzin,1 C. Divella,1 A. Stasi,1 A. Intini,1 M. Gigante,1 G. Lucarelli,1 P. Ditonno,1 M. Battaglia,1 A. Crovace,1 F. Staffieri,1 G. Pertosa,1 B. Oortwijn,2 E. Amersfoort,2 G. Grandaliano,3 L. Gesualdo.1

    1University of Bari, Bari, Italy; 2Pharming Technologies NV, Leiden, Netherlands; 3University of Foggia, Foggia, Italy.

    Vascular rarefaction is critical in the development of renal fibrosis. Pericytes regulate renal blood flow and might be an important source of renal interstitial myofibroblasts;…
