Pathogenic Role of Anti-HLA Antibodies on Endothelial Progenitor Cell Dysfunction of Highly Sensitized Kidney Transplanted Patients.
Anti-HLA antibodies (abs) bind to kidney graft endothelial cells inducing complement-mediated injury and humoral rejection. Endothelial Progenitor Cells (EPC) are bone marrow-derived precursors able to…2016 American Transplant Congress
Human Multipotent Mesenchymal Stromal Cells Improve Survival and Function of Pancreatic Islets by Cell-to-Cell Contact.
Background: MSC exhibit immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory properties. Notably, MSC were shown to preserve human islet function and to prevent cytokine-induced apoptosis. Aim: To evaluate the…2016 American Transplant Congress
In Vitro Induction of T Regulatory Cells by Multipotent Adult Progenitor Cells.
Regenerative Medicine, Athersys, Inc, Cleveland, OH.
There is increasing evidence that transplanted adult stemcells remain undifferentiated and often are cleared after a short time.However, these short-lived stem cells still promote recovery…2016 American Transplant Congress
The Apoptosis of the Tracheal Epithelia Increase the Recipient's MSCs Derived Myofibroblasts in Allografts to Exacerbate Obliterative Bronchiolitis After Tracheal Transplantation in Mice.
Background: The long-term outcome of lung transplantation is impeded by obliterative bronchiolitis (OB). However, the current treatment cannot effectively prevent the process of OB. The…2016 American Transplant Congress
Dynamic Detection of Anti-HLA Antibodies Can Predict aGVHD and OS in HLA-12/12 Matched Unrelated-Donor Allo-HSCT for Hematological Malignancies.
The NMDP and CIBMTR provided guidelines for the use of anti-HLA antibodies in unrelated-donors hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). However, a deeper understanding of other…2016 American Transplant Congress
Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury Following Transplantation: Implications for the Modulation of CXCL8 Chemokine Function.
Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury (IRI) is a major contributor to subsequent graft dysfunction. Chemokines play a key role in leukocyte recruitment towards to the injured tissue. CXCL8…2016 American Transplant Congress
Anti-HLA Antibodies in Allogeneic and Autologous Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation.
Introduction: Anti-HLA antibodies have been associated with graft rejection in solid organ and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). The aim of this study was describe…2016 American Transplant Congress
Seven Year Follow-Up of a Phase 2 Clinical Trial to Induce Tolerance in Living Donor Renal Transplant Recipients.
1Northwestern University, Chicago; 2University of Louisville, Louisville.
36 subjects have been enrolled and 31 transplanted in a phase 2 protocol (IDE 13947) to induce tolerance in recipients of living donor renal allografts…2016 American Transplant Congress
Mesenchymal Stem Cells Reprogram Macrophage Polarization and Attenuate Liver Ischemia and Reperfusion Injury by Regulating Notch/Cox2/PGE2 Signaling Pathway.
Background and aims: Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been shown an immune modulatory properties and tissue repairing capability under inflammatory conditions. However, it is unknown…2016 American Transplant Congress
Obliterative Bronchiolitis Following Lung Transplantation Is Preceded by Depletion of Airway Submucosal Glands and Basal Stem Cells.
University of Iowa, Iowa City, IA.
Background: Obliterative bronchiolitis (OB), a major cause of morbidity and mortality following lung transplantation, is characterized by progressive fibrosis of distal airways. We hypothesized that…
