Dendritic Cell Expression of Rictor (mTORC2), but Not Raptor (mTORC1), Protects Against Renal Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury.
H. Dai,^1,3 N. Rogers,^1,2 A. Watson,¹ D. Fantus,¹ A. Thomson.¹
¹Starzl Transplantation Institute, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, PA; ²Westmead Institute for Medical Research, Sydney, Australia; ³Urologic Organ Transplantation Department, the Second Xiangya Hospital, Central South University, Changsha, China
Background: Dendritic cells (DC) are critical initiators of innate immunity in the kidney and orchestrate inflammation subsequent to ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI). The mechanistic target of…

ERK and HIF1 Play a Major Role in Hypothermic Protection Against Renal Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury.
K. Lee,¹ J. Jeong,² D. Choi,¹ K. Na,¹ H. Bae,¹ Y. Ham.¹
¹Chungnam National University, Nephrology, Daejeon, Korea; ²Chungnam National University, Department of Medical Science, Daejeon, Korea
Purpose: Hypothermia attenuates the renal injury induced by ischemia-reperfusion. However, the detailed molecular pathway remains unknown. ERK and HIF1 are known to protect against ischemia-reperfusion…

Direct Comparison of Hypothermic and Normothermic Organ Preservation in a Porcine Ex-Vivo Kidney Model.
N. Vallant,^1,2 B. Sandhu,¹ N. Wolfhagen,¹ C. Pusey,¹ V. Papalois.¹
¹Renal and Transplant Department, Imperial College, London, United Kingdom; ²Department of Visceral-, Transplant- and Thoracic Surgery, Medical University, Innsbruck, Austria
Background: Hypothermic machine perfusion is a well established method for deceased donor organ preservation as well as pre-transplant assessment and preconditioning. Recent translational and clinical…

Signal Inhibitory Regulatory Protein-α Regulates Pathologic Reactive Oxygen Species in Acute Kidney Injury.
N. Rogers,^1,2,3 D. Meijles,³ P. Pagano,³ J. Isenberg.³
¹Centre for Transplant and Renal Research, Westmead Institute for Medical Research, Sydney, NSW, Australia; ²Starzl Transplant Institute, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, PA; ³Vascular Medicine Institute, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, PA
Background: Ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI) is mediated by a complex cascade of pro-inflammatory and oxidative processes. We have reported that signal regulatory inhibitory protein (SIRP)-α…
