Depletional Induction Therapy in Non-Human Primates – Preclinical Modeling of Polyclonal Depletion with Rhesus-Specific ATG
*Purpose: Antithymocyte globulins (ATG) have been used in transplantation since the late 1960s to prevent and treat acute allograft rejection. Over the past decade, induction…2019 American Transplant Congress
Lymphotoxin Beta Receptor Determines Lymph Node Structure for Treg Migration and Suppression of Graft Rejection
*Purpose: Lymphotoxin beta receptor (LTβR) mediated signaling in lymphatic endothelium cells (LEC) is important for migration of regulatory T cells (Treg) to afferent lymphatic vessels…2019 American Transplant Congress
First Report and Mechanistic Analysis of Chronic GVHD after Solid Organ Transplantation
Georgetown University Hospital, Washington, DC
*Purpose: Chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) occurs late after bone marrow transplantation and is associated with a characteristic lichenoid rash (cutaneous sclerosis) and effects on multiple…2019 American Transplant Congress
B Cell IL-4 Signaling Induces the IL-10 Secreting TIM-1+ Bregs and Suppresses T Cell Inflammatory Cytokines
Surgery, Starzl Transplantation Institute, Pittsburgh, PA
*Purpose: TIM-1+ identifies the majority (~75%) of IL-10+ B regulatory cells (Bregs). However, TIM-1+ B cells are also enriched for IL-4+ B effector 2 cells…2019 American Transplant Congress
Promoting Mitochondrial Fusion Alters the Interaction between Endothelial Cells and T Cells in Models of Transplantation
Medical University of South Carolina, Charleston, SC
*Purpose: As semi-professional antigen-presenting cells, microvascular endothelial cells (mECs) play a central role in mediating allograft rejection. Cold storage and ischemia reperfusion injury increases mEC…2019 American Transplant Congress
Outcomes of Phenotypes in Early Subclinical Inflammation (SCI) Determined by Presence of Interstitial Inflammation with or without Concomitant Tubulitis
University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, Pittsburgh, PA
*Purpose: Low levels of renal allograft inflammation in the early post transplant period appear to have an impact on renal architecture and function. However, the…2019 American Transplant Congress
A Novel Protocol to Produce Massive Amounts of Autologous Thymus-Derived Treg Cells (ThyTreg) to Be Employed as Cellular Therapy in Heart Transplanted Children: A New Paradigm for the Prevention of Graft Rejection
*Purpose: Immune allograft rejection remains the main obstacle to successful transplants. Although transfer of regulatory T cells (Treg) has acquired growing interest in achieving indefinite…2019 American Transplant Congress
Treg And Bone Marrow Infusion Promotes Survival Of Donor Kidney Grafted Months After Disappearance Of Mixed Chimerism
Columbia Center for Translational Immunology, Columbia University, New York City, NY
*Purpose: Transient mixed chimerism induced with non-myeloablative conditioning in monkeys and humans induces tolerance to about 70% of donor kidney grafts transplanted at the time…2019 American Transplant Congress
In Vitro Model to Study the Effect of Irradiation Preconditioning on Alloimmune Responses: Development of Potential Predictive Markers
Radiation Oncology, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Boston, MA
*Purpose: Pre-conditioning using total body irradiation prior to HSCT is a well-established regimen for patients with hematological malignancy. However, irradiation (IR) elicits not only immunosuppressive…2019 American Transplant Congress
Gene Expression Profiles in CD8+ T Cells in Chronic Antibody-Mediated Rejection (CAMR) of Kidney Transplantation
*Purpose: CAMR is the main cause of chronic graft injury and subsequent graft loss. Most of the studies on the subject focused their attention to…
