Modification of Gut Microbiota Accelerates Kidney Repair After Experimental Ischemia Reperfusion Injury
S. Gharaie, K. Lee, S. Noel, L. Arend, H. Rabb
Johns Hopkins Medicine, Baltimore, MD
*Purpose: Kidney ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI) leads to changes in gut microbiome, and pre-IR microbiome changes can modify course of experimental tissue injury. There is…

Apoptotic Exosome-Like Vesicles Aggravate Inflammation and Renal Injury After Ischemia-Reperfusion
I. Kaci¹, S. Lan¹, H. Kim¹, A. Karakeussian Rimbaud¹, F. Migneault¹, J. Turgeon¹, N. Patey², M. Dieudé¹, M. Hébert¹
¹Research Centre, Centre hospitalier de l’Université de Montréal, Montreal, QC, Canada, ²Research Centre, Centre Hospitalier Universitaire Sainte-Justine, Montreal, QC, Canada
*Purpose: Ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) is a common cause of acute kidney injury (AKI) and chronic kidney disease (CKD). Damage to microvascular peritubular capillaries (PTC) is…

Mapping Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) and Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) in Kidney Transplant Biopsies Reveals Two Classes of Early AKI That Differ in Their Response-to-Wounding
P. Halloran¹, J. Reeve¹, G. Böhmig², O. Viklicky³, M. Myslak⁴, G. Gupta⁵, &. the INTERCOMEX Study Group⁶
¹Alberta Transplant Applied Genomics Centre, Edmonton, AB, Canada, ²Medical University of Vienna, Vienna, Austria, ³Institute for Clinical and Experimental Medicine, Prague, Czech Republic, ⁴Pomeranian Medical University, Szczecin, Poland, ⁵Virginia Commonwealth University, Richmond, VA, ⁶., ., AB, Canada
*Purpose: We recently analyzed injury-induced molecular changes in kidney transplant biopsies using principal component analysis (PCA) (AJT https://doi.org/10.1111/ajt.16374). PC1 reflected all injury, PC2 distinguished early…

Estrogen Receptor Beta Deletion is Protective in Renal Ischemia Reperfusion Injury in a Renal Specific Manner
C. S. O'Brien, P. Hernandez, Z. Wang, G. Ge, W. Hancock, M. H. Levine
Surgery, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, PA
*Purpose: Renal Ischemia Reperfusion Injury (IRI) is a major contributor to delayed graft function (DGF) in kidney transplantation. Previously, we have shown lower rates of…
