Aquaporin 4 Blockade Alters T Cell Anatomical Distribution and Prolongs Cardiac Allograft Survival in Sensitized Recipients.
1Immunology, Cleveland Clinic, Cleveland; 2Aeromics, Inc., Cleveland
Aquaporins are water channels present on mammalian cells. We previously reported that aquaporin 4 (AQP4) blockade with small molecule inhibitor AER270/271 significantly prolongs survival of…2017 American Transplant Congress
Generation of Autologous CMV and EBV-Specific T-Cell Lines from Seronegative Patients for Cell Therapy of Opportunistic Infections Following Kidney Transplantation.
Cytomegalovirus (CMV) and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) reactivations after kidney transplant are associated with substantial morbidity, especially in seronegative patients. Adoptive immunotherapy using virus-specific T cells…2017 American Transplant Congress
Which Tr1 Is Better for Transplant Tolerance Induction: Comparing the Tr1 Generated by IL-27 or TGF-βplus IL-27.
IL-10 producing T cells (Tr1) are important for the transplant tolerance induction. However, Tr1 can be induced in two methods: IL-27 or TGF-βplus IL-27. We…2017 American Transplant Congress
High Regulatory T Cells Rate Early After Lung Transplantation Is Associated with Bronchiolitis Obliterans Syndrome Development.
Despite treatment improvement, the bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS) affects more than 50% of the lung-transplant recipient in the 5 years post-transplantation and because it cannot…2017 American Transplant Congress
Lymphotoxin (LT) β Receptor-Mediated Non-Classical NFκB Signaling in Lymphatic Endothelial Eells (LEC) is Required for Homeostatic T Cell Migration.
Background: The selective recruitment of regulatory T cells (Treg) or blockade of memory/effector T cell migration to the graft and draining lymph nodes (dLN) are…2017 American Transplant Congress
CMV-Specific CD4+ T Cells in CMV-IgG-Seronegative Individuals Protect from CMV Viremia Following Transplantation with a CMV-Seropositive Donor Kidney.
Internal Medicine, Nephrology and Transplantation, Erasmus Medical Center, Rotterdam, Netherlands
A primary infection with cytomegalovirus (CMV) is one of the major threats following transplantation of a CMV-IgG-seropositive donor organ into a CMV-IgG-seronegative individual. Therefore, prophylactic…2017 American Transplant Congress
CD4+CD28null T Cells Require IL-15 & IL-21 to Become Alloresponsive.
IntroductionAgeing and a pro-inflammatory milieu, such as present in patients with end-stage renal disease, are important drivers of increased T-cell differentiation, which is accompanied by…2017 American Transplant Congress
Baseline Immune Assessment to Individualize Immunosuppression in SPK Recipients with Type 1 Diabetes.
Introduction:Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is an immune-mediated disorder associated with multiple immunological anomalies. Immunologic abnormalities might help to explain why recipients of simultaneous pancreas kidney…2017 American Transplant Congress
FcγRIIB-Mediated Coinhibition Attenuates Donor-Reactive CD8+ T Cell Responses.
Emory Transplant Center, Emory University, Atlanta, GA
Memory T cells can be a formidable barrier to long-term, rejection-free allograft survival, particularly in the setting of costimulation blockade. Ongoing work in the field…2017 American Transplant Congress
Fate and Function of CD8+ T Cells Primed by Fetal Antigen During Pregnancy.
Background The long-term fate of maternal T cells primed by fetal antigen during pregnancy has not been well studied but may have significant impact for…
