TIGIT Agonism Ameliorates Costimulation Blockade-Resistant Rejection by Increasing Quantity and Quality of Graft-Infiltrating Foxp3⁺ Treg
C. R. Hartigan, D. Liu, S. Laurie, M. L. Ford
Emory University Transplant Center, Emory University, Atlanta, GA
*Purpose: Belatacept-based immunosuppression confers fewer off-target toxicities compared to CNI but comes at a cost of increased incidence and severity of acute rejection, potentially due…

p40 Homodimers Stimulate Graft Dendritic Cells to Produce IL-15 Driving Endogenous Donor-Reactive Memory CD8 T Cell Activation within High-Risk Cardiac Allografts
H. Tsuda¹, A. Valujskikh², R. Fairchild³
¹Inflammation and Immunity, Cleveland Clinic, Cleveland, OH, ²The Cleveland Clinic Fdn, Cleveland, OH, ³Cleveland Clinic Foundation, Cleveland, OH
*Purpose: Acute allograft injury occurring during the first 1-2 days post-transplant is mediated by graft infiltrating endogenous donor-reactive memory CD8 T cells and requires their…

The Impact of Early Graft Infiltrating TCF-1^LowPD-1^HighCD8⁺ T Cells in Delayed Fc Nonbinding Anti-CD3 Antibody Protocol in the Sensitized Mouse Model
T. Ota¹, R. Goto¹, T. Harada¹, Y. Ganchiku¹, M. Zaitsu¹, A. Forgioni¹, N. Kawamura², M. Watanabe², M. Fukai¹, T. Shimamura³, A. Taketomi¹
¹Dept. of Gastroenterological Surgery I, Hokkaido University, Sapporo, Japan, ²Dept. of Transplant Surgery, Hokkaido University, Sapporo, Japan, ³Division of Organ Transplantation, Hokkaido University Hospital, Sapporo, Japan
*Purpose: Fc nonbinding anti(a)-CD3 antibody has a unique effect that delayed treatment protocol induces a transplant tolerance. Delayed protocol allows early graft infiltrating cells which…

Utility of Follow-up Biopsies After Acute Rejection in Pediatric Kidney Transplantation
S. S. Raza¹, V. Hauptfeld-Dolejsek¹, F. Rosenblum¹, E. C. Mroczek-Musulman², D. R. Kelly², M. Seifert¹
¹Department of Nephrology, UAB School of Medicine, Birmingham, AL, ²Children’s of Alabama, Birmingham, AL
*Purpose: Treatment of acute kidney transplant rejection in children is often guided by creatinine-based estimates of GFR (eGFR) that may lack sensitivity to determine the…

Anti-CD8 Immuno-PET for Non-invasive Tracking of Early Graft Rejection in a Non-human Primate Kidney Transplant Model
K. Bruestle¹, R. Tavare², F. Fredriksson¹, E. Duggan¹, F. Huang¹, B. Bhola¹, J. Giurleo², R. Foster², P. Krueger², M. Dobosz², D. Ekanayake-Alper¹, H. Sakai¹, B. Piegari¹, J. Castrillion¹, S. M. Coley¹, O. Harari², A. Mintz¹, D. Ma², A. Griesemer¹
¹Columbia University Medical Center, New York City, NY, ²Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, Inc, New York City, NY
*Purpose: Infiltration of CD8 T cells into solid organ grafts is an early sign of rejection. REGN5054 is a fully human monoclonal antibody that binds…

Quilty Lesions are Associated with a Tolerance Profile in Heart Allografts Biopsies
J. Torrealba, S. Moore, S. Sathirareuangchai, L. De Las Casas, Q. Cai
Pathology, UTSW Medical Ctr, Dallas, TX
*Purpose: Previously, in 42 cardiac allograft biopsies, we demonstrated that the presence of Foxp3+ innate and TGF- β + adaptive regulatory lymphocytes in Quilty lesions…

The Effect of the Different Donor-Derived HLA T-Cell Epitope Targets on the Development of T Cell-Mediated Rejection After Kidney Transplantation
A. Senev, E. Van Loon, M. Emonds, M. Naesens
Microbiology, Immunology and Transplantation, KU Leuven, Leuven, Belgium
*Purpose: Many kidney allografts fail due to rejections caused by the donor and recipient HLA incompatibility. Recent studies have shown that HLA-DR and DQ mismatches…

P40 Homodimers Induce Il-15 to Promote Endogenous Donor-reactive Memory Cd8 T Cell Activation within High-risk Cardiac Allografts
H. Tsuda, A. Valujskikh, R. Fairchild
Inflammation and Immunity, Cleveland Clinic, Cleveland, OH
*Purpose: Longer cold ischemic storage (CIS) time prior to transplant results in increased proliferation of endogenous donor-reactive memory CD8 T cells within complete MHC-mismatched cardiac…
