Stem Cell-Mediated Regeneration of Ischemically Damaged Renal Allografts During Ex Vivo Warm Perfusion.
1BREONICS Inc., Watervliet, NY; 2Plastic Surgery, University of Utrecht, Utrecht, Netherlands.
Our goal is to address an unmet medical need by providing more kidneys for transplant. We asked 2 questions: Could a tissue-engineering platform be used…2016 American Transplant Congress
Delayed Induction of Mixed Chimerism Permits Kidney-Induced Cardiac Allograft Tolerance to be Applied to Recipients of Cadaveric Organs.
(BACKGROUND)Cardiac tolerance in nonhuman primates (NHPs) has been induced for the first time by kidney co-transplantation in combination with donor bone marrow infusion when the…2016 American Transplant Congress
c-Kit+ Cells Are Kidney-Specific Progenitor/Stem Cells with Regenerative Potential.
Introduction: Identification of progenitor/stem cell populations in mammalian tissues is important for therapeutic applications and for understanding biological processes. We recently reported that c-Kit+ cells…2016 American Transplant Congress
Blockade of the ASC Coreceptor Enhances Hematopoietic Stem Cell Engraftment.
Purpose: HSC engraftment is essential for successful bone marrow transplantation, and successful HSC engraftment allows for induction of tolerance to solid organ allografts. Engrafted HSCs…2016 American Transplant Congress
CD8+TCR– Facilitating Cells in Mobilized Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells Are Enriched with IL-10 Producing B Cells.
Institute for Cellular Therapeutics, University of Louisville, Louisville, KY.
We recently reported that facilitating cell (FC) enriched hematopoietic progenitor stem cell (HSPC) allografts (FCRx) induced tolerance without graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) or engraftment syndrome in…2016 American Transplant Congress
Effect of Adipose Tissue-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells in a Rat Model of Chronic Renal Allograft Rejection.
Renal Division, University of Sao Paulo, Sao Paulo, Brazil.
Adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ASC) may represent a new strategy to prevent allograft rejection after kidney transplantation due to its immunomodulatory properties. In the…2016 American Transplant Congress
Improved Regeneration of the Remnant Liver After Extended Hepatectomy or Partial Liver Transplantation by Pharmacologic Mobilization of Endogenous Stem Cells in Rats.
Department of Surgery, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD.
BackgroundRapid regeneration of the remnant liver after extended partial hepatectomy or reduced size liver transplantation is essential to prevent small-for-size syndrome (SFSS). We hypothesize that…2016 American Transplant Congress
In Vitro and In Vivo Characterization of Human Hematopoietic Chimeric Cells – A Novel Approach for Tolerance Induction in Transplantation.
Department of Orthopaedics, University of Illinois at Chicago, Chicago, IL.
Background: Cell-based therapies represent a new promising approach for tolerance induction in transplantation. One of the methods for immune response modulation in solid organ and…2016 American Transplant Congress
Inflammatory Conditions Switch the Effect of MSC on B Cells from Pro-Tolerogenic to Anti-Proliferative.
The immunomodulatory capacity of mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) makes them a promising therapeutic tool in transplantation. MSC are recently gaining interest for their immunomodulatory effects…2016 American Transplant Congress
The Therapeutic Potential of Human Liver-Derived Stem Cell Transplantation in a Cirrhotic Liver Rat Model.
Cirrhosis is a long-term consequence of chronic hepatic injury and there are no effective treatment methods. Previous studies suggested that MSCs may ameliorate fibrogenesis through…
