    Mechanistic Insights into How Targeting of HDAC10 Promotes Foxp3+ Treg Cell Suppressive Activity, Gene Expression and Metabolism, and Enhances Allograft Survival.

    S. Dahiya,1 L. Wang,1 U. Beier,1,2 A. Angelin,1 R. Han,1 D. Wallace,1,2 W. Hancock.1,2

    1Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, Philadelphia; 2University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia.

    Foxp3+ T-regulatory (Treg) cells are key regulators of immune responses that can result in unwarranted inflammation and promote allograft rejection. From a theoretical perspective, targeting…

    Aquaporin 4 Blockade Is a Novel Strategy to Prevent T Cell Activation and Effector Functions.

    K. Ayasoufi,1 N. Kohei,1 G. Farr,2 P. McGuirk,2 M. Pelletier,2 R. Fairchild,1 A. Valujskikh.1

    1Cleveland Clinic, Cleveland; 2Aeromics LLC, Cleveland.

    Aquaporin 4 (AQP4) belongs to the family of integral transmembrane proteins highly permeable to water. We have previously reported that blocking AQP4 with small molecule…

    Profiling of T Cell Subsets in a Primate Cardiac Transplant Model.

    N. O'Neill, T. Zhang, G. Braileanu, W. Sun, X. Cheng, C. Evans, R. Pierson, A. Azimzadeh.

    Surgery, University of Maryland, Baltimore, MD.

    Purpose: Costimulation blockade prolongs graft survival but does not induce tolerance in primates, and mechanisms of rejection are incompletely understood. Here we evaluate changes in…

    Blockade of the ASC Coreceptor Enhances Hematopoietic Stem Cell Engraftment.

    R. Elahimehr, S. Kasimsetti, A. Shigeoka, D. McKay.

    UCSD, San Diego.

    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…

    Tissue Priming of Plasmacytoid Dendritic Cells Enhances Their Phagocytosis and Lowers the Threshold for Subsequent Toll-Like Receptor 7/9 Activation.

    J. Ruben,1 G. Garcia-Romo,1 E. Breman,1 S. van der Kooij,1 A. Redeker,2 R. Arens,2 C. van Kooten.1

    1Nephrology, Leiden University Medical Centre, Leiden, Netherlands; 2Immunohematology and Blood Transfusion, Leiden University Medical Centre, Leiden, Netherlands.

    Plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDC) have a pivotal role in clearing viral infections, and can regulate tolerance or immunity depending on their activation status. We have…

    A Single Histone/protein Acetyltransferase, Tip60, Is Absolutely Essential for Treg Survival and Function, and Its Inhibition Abrogates Induction of Treg-Dependent Allograft Tolerance.

    L. Wang,1 A. Beeler,2 S. Dahiya,1 R. Han,1 W. Hancock.1

    1CHOP & UPenn, Philadelphia, PA; 2Boston University, Boston, MA.

    Based on in vitro studies and limited in vivo data from patients with mutations in FOXP3 or animals with depletion of circulating Tregs, Tregs are…

    Complement Receptor C5aR2 Deletion in Kidney Transplantation in Mice Attenuates Renal Damage.

    A. Thorenz,1 R. Chen,1 K. Hueper,2 B. Hensen,2 C. Klemann,3 M. Meier,4 A. Klos,5 F. Gueler.1

    1Nephrology, Medical School, Hannover, Germany; 2Radiology, Medical School, Hannover, Germany; 3Paediatric Surgery, Medical School, Hannover, Germany; 4Central Animal Facility, Medical School, Hannover, Germany; 5Microbiology, Medical School, Hannover, Germany.

    ObjectiveThe complement receptors C5aR1 and C5aR2 serve distinct roles in immune regulation. In kidney transplantation the early post-implant ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI) causes rapid complement…

    Dendritic Cells and Damage-Associated Molecular Patterns in Aging.

    M. Seyda, H. Li, G. Liu, M. Quante, H. Uehara, J. Schuitenmaker, A. Elkhal, S. Tullius.

    Division of Transplant Surgery and Transplant Surgery Research Laboratory, Brigham and Women's Hospital, Boston.

    Recently, it has been shown that Dendritic Cells (DCs) of old organs accelerate graft rejection by orchestrating IL-17A-mediated T cell responses. Moreover, cell-free DNA has…

    Interleukin-1 Receptor Signaling by Graft Stromal Cells Regulates Donor-Reactive CD8 T Cell Responses to Cardiac Allografts

    S. Iida,1 D. Kish,1 R. Abe,2 K. Tanabe,3 W. Baldwin,1 R. Fairchild.1

    1Immunology, Cleveland Clinic, Cleveland, OH; 2Immunology, Science University of Tokyo, Chiba, Japan; 3Urology, Tokyo Women's Medical University, Tokyo, Japan.

    Allograft reperfusion induces inflammation that directs the infiltration of memory T cells into the allograft and their activation to express functions mediating graft injury. The…
