Prolonged Heterotopic Cardiac Xenograft Survival from Thrombomudulin Expressing Multigene Donor Pig
*Purpose: Genetic engineering (GE) technology has made knockout and multigene expressing animals available. These animals can be used for xenotransplantation (xTX)to treat end stage diseases.…2019 American Transplant Congress
Predictors and Outcomes of Acute Graft-versus-Host Disease after Liver Transplant
*Purpose: Graft-versus-Host Disease (GVHD) is a rare complication of liver transplant (LT) that has an estimated incidence of 0.1%-2% per year and is associated with…2019 American Transplant Congress
Surgical Management Of Five Hundred Patients With Chronic Gut Failure At A Single Center: Autologous Reconstruction Versus Transplantation
Cleveland Clinic, Cleveland, OH
*Purpose: To define the evolving role of autologous gut reconstruction (AGR) in the management of total parenteral nutrition (TPN)-dependent-chronic gut failure (CGF) patients with special…2019 American Transplant Congress
Efficacy of Filgrastim in Solid Organ Transplant Recipients
*Purpose: Neutropenia frequently occurs after solid organ transplantation (SOT) due to immunosuppression, antiviral prophylaxis, or viral infections. Immunosuppression reduction or antiviral prophylaxis minimization can lead…2019 American Transplant Congress
Recipient TIM4 Expression is Essential for Hepatocellular Function in Liver Transplantation
Dumont-UCLA Transplant Center, UCLA, Los Angeles, CA
*Purpose: Hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) represents a major risk factor of early graft dysfunction and predisposes to rejection in orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT). Previous studies…2019 American Transplant Congress
Reduced Intensity Induction Therapy in Patients Undergoing Repeat Kidney Transplants
Hospital do Rim, Nephrology Division, EPM - UNIFESP, São Paulo, Brazil
*Purpose: We hypothesized that patients without donor-specific antibodies (DSA) undergoing repeat transplants could receive lower doses of antithymocyte globulin induction (rATG), without compromising efficacy and…2019 American Transplant Congress
Dendritic Cells Transduced with Autoimmune Regulator Exhibit Immature Properties and Prolong Heart Allograft Survival
Organ Transplant Center, The First Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat-sen University, Guangzhou, China
*Purpose: The expression of the Aire (Autoimmune regulator) gene was observed to inhibit the maturation and activation of dendritic cells (DCs) and induce transplantation tolerance.*Methods:…2019 American Transplant Congress
Vo2peak Superior to Current Established Measure of Post Kidney Transplant Survival Score (EPTS Score)
1Mayo Clinic Hospital, Phoenix, AZ, 2Baylor Scott and White, Dallas, TX
*Purpose: The Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients (SRTR) utilizes the calculated estimated posttransplant survival (EPTS) score as the measure of post kidney transplant survival to…2019 American Transplant Congress
Global Analysis of Fc-gamma Receptors Binding Capacity of Human Leukocyte Antigen Donor Specific Antibody
University of Cincinnati Academic Health Center, Cincinnati, OH
*Purpose: Functional assessment of anti-HLA antibodies has historically been limited to complement-binding assays. However, antibodies are capable of inducing injury by complement-independent mechanisms, including Fc-gamma…2019 American Transplant Congress
Leukopenia in Older Kidney Transplant Recipients is Associated with Decreased Allograft Survival and Increased Patient Survival
Transplant Nephrology, Medical University of South Carolina, Charleston, SC
*Purpose: Older kidney transplant recipients are vulnerable to side effects of immunosuppression (IS) including leukopenia. Providers often reduce MMF dose in response to leukopenia. This…
