Non-Invasive Detection of Rejection with ImmunoPET Imaging.
Current approaches to detect and diagnose rejection are retrospective and/or invasive. These methods assess the extent of end organ damage by insensitive and non-specific measures…2017 American Transplant Congress
Increased Ischemic Inflammation Induces Recipient Endogenous Memory CD4 Cell-Graft Dendritic Cell Interactions to Provide Help for Activation of Endogenous Memory CD8 T Cells.
Immunology, Cleveland Clinic, Cleveland, OH
Memory T cells provide protection against recurrent pathogens, but memory T cells with donor-reactivity pose a major barrier to successful allograft transplant and tolerance induction.…2017 American Transplant Congress
Antibody-Mediated Vascular Rejection of Kidney Allografts: What Does It Happen After 15 Years?
OBJECTIVE:To examine the association between subtypes of AVR and graft loss. We assessed patients who provided biopsy samples for acute allograft rejection, between 1998 and…2017 American Transplant Congress
Loss of Bat3 Could Promote Transplant Tolerance by Regulating CD4 + T Cells Function.
Objective: To explore the effect of Bat3 on T cells and its function in transplant tolerance inductionMethodsWe generated Bat3flox/flox CD4-Cre + mice, sorted WT and…2017 American Transplant Congress
Integrated Magnetic-Electrochemical Exosome (iMEX) Technology to Detect Rejection in Kidney Transplant Recipients.
Transplantation Research Center, Harvard Medical School, Boston; Exosome Diagnostic Inc, Cambridge
Methods for monitoring clinical rejection including increases in serum creatinine and urinary protein excretion may not reflect subclinical rejection. Similarly repeat biopsy may result in…2017 American Transplant Congress
Tacrolimus and Mycophenolate Exposure and Subclinical Tubulo-Interstitial Inflammation in Low Immunological Risk Renal Transplants.
The aim is to evaluate the relationship between maintenance immunosuppression, subclinical inflammation (i-score plus t-score) and interstitial fibrosis/tubular atrophy (IF/TA) (ci-score plus ct-score) in paired…2016 American Transplant Congress
Acute Rejection in Non-Human Primates Treated with Belatacept Is Mediated by a Unique CD8 Memory Subset.
Belatacept is a high affinity version of the fusion protein CTLA4-Ig that blocks CD28 mediated T cell costimulation, providing a more targeted/less toxic form of…2016 American Transplant Congress
Peritransplant Costimulation Blockade Combined with a Short-Course of Rapamycin Prevents Rejection of Vascularized Composite Allografts.
[Background] Reconstructive transplantation represents a valid therapeutic option after devastating tissue loss. Routine clinical application, however, is hampered by the toxicity of long-term maintenance immunosuppression.…2016 American Transplant Congress
Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor Expression Increases in Skin Graft-infiltrating Th1 and Treg Cells.
Surgery, University of Wisconsin, Madison, WI.
Hypothesis: The expression of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR), a transcription factor activated by a variety of exogenous and endogenous ligands including the typtophan-metabolite kynuenine,…2016 American Transplant Congress
Prolonged Cold Ischemia Time Negatively Impacts Graft and Recipient Survival in a Murine Orthotopic Hindlimb Transplant Model.
Department of Surgery, UCLA Medical Center, Los Angeles, CA.
Purpose: The safe maximum cold preservation time remains unknown in Vascularized Composite Allotransplantation (VCA), yet is of critical clinical significance. VCAs with a large muscular…
