Novel Role of Qa-1-Restricted Immunoregulation in Murine Cardiac Transplantation
1Medicine, Brigham and Women's Hospital, Boston, MA, 2Dana-Farbar Caner Institute, Boston, MA
*Purpose: HLA-E is an MHC class-1b molecule that is under-studied in the transplant setting. Recent clinical studies have revealed a robust association between allograft outcome…2019 American Transplant Congress
Adipose Stem Cells Promote Composite Tissue Engraftment
*Purpose: Adipose-derived stem cells (ASC) have increased levels of anti-inflammatory and immunoregulatory factors. Murine studies have shown stable macrochimerism and long-term full thickness skin graft…2019 American Transplant Congress
Quantitative Proteome Profiling in T Cell-Mediated Rejection
*Purpose: The proteomic analyses through formalin-fixation and paraffin embedding (FFPE) specimens reflects systemic and inherent renal injury perturbations for different kidney transplant injury states. In…2019 American Transplant Congress
Effects of Thalidomide and Dexamethasone Co-Treatment on CD8+ T Cells
*Purpose: Thalidomide (TM) is known to have anti-cancer and anti-inflammatory effects and dexamethasone (DX) has been reported that it also reduces inflammation and inhibits inflammatory…2019 American Transplant Congress
In Vivo Treg Expansion under Costimulation Blockade Targets Early Rejection and Improves Long-Term Outcome
*Purpose: Early rejection episodes are a major problem under CTLA4Ig/belatacept-based immunosuppression. We have previously shown that CTLA4Ig therapy is dependent on Tregs at low (LD)…2019 American Transplant Congress
High Numbers of Differentiated CD8+CD28– T Cells Are Associated with a Substantially Lowered Risk for Late Rejection and Graft Loss after Kidney Transplantation
Nephrology & Transplantation, Erasmus MC, Rotterdam, Netherlands
*Purpose: Recipients of a kidney transplant have a prematurely aged T-cell system. This is reflected in lowered thymic output, reduced telomere length and more highly…2019 American Transplant Congress
Effect of Chronic Kidney Disease on Allo-Immune Response in Mice
*Purpose: Accumulation of memory T cells bearing markers of sustained antigen stimulation have been described in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, mouse models…2019 American Transplant Congress
Systematic Testing and Specificity Mapping of Alloantigen-Specific Chimeric Antigen Receptors in T Regulatory Cells
University of British Columbia, Vancouver, BC, Canada
*Purpose: Achieving transplant tolerance with regulatory T cell (Treg) adoptive immunotherapy is currently under investigation as a therapy to reduce graft rejection and improve long-term…2019 American Transplant Congress
Prolonged Cold Ischemic Storage Induces Allograft Necro-Inflammation That Increases Graft Susceptibility to T Cell Mediated Rejection
1Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, New York, NY, 2Cleveland Clinic, Cleveland, OH
*Purpose: Prolonged cold ischemic storage (CIS) of murine cardiac allografts causes complement dependent, CTLA4Ig-resistant rejection that is associated with 48h post-transplant elevations in serum levels…2019 American Transplant Congress
Advanced Immunological T-cell Ageing Defined by a Very Low Thymic Function Identifies Patients with a Substantial Increased Risk for Long-Term Mortality after Kidney Transplantation
Nephrology & Transplantation, Erasmus MC, Rotterdam, Netherlands
*Purpose: End-stage renal disease is associated with premature ageing of the T-cell immune system. At the time of kidney transplantation the average biological age of…
