2022 American Transplant Congress
Leveraging Car T Cells To Achieve Desensitization And Enable Transplantation
UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA, PHILADELPHIA, PA
*Purpose: Pre-existing allo-antibodies (allo-Abs), that preclude transplant due to the risk of hyperacute rejection, lead to prolonged wait times and high mortality rates. Current desensitization…2022 American Transplant Congress
A Sustained Injury Response by Regulatory T Cells (Treg) Contributes to Fibrosis to Promote Chronic Rejection After Heart Transplantation
*Purpose: Chronic rejection (CR) results from the development of immunosuppressant-resistant allograft vasculopathy and fibrosis and remains a leading cause of recipient death one-year post-heart transplant…2022 American Transplant Congress
Lymphotoxin Beta Receptor Classical NFkB Signaling in Lymphatic Endothelial Cells Drives Treg Tissue Stability
1University of Maryland School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD, 2University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, MN
*Purpose: Regulatory T cell (Treg) suppressor function and allograft protection depend on maintenance of transcription factor Foxp3 expression and lymphatic migration, respectively. Treg lymphotoxin (LT)…2022 American Transplant Congress
Treg Migration and Suppression Require Engagement with Lymphotoxin Beta Receptor on Lymphatic Endothelial Cells to Protect Islet Allografts
1University of Maryland School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD, 2University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, MN
*Purpose: Treg sequential migration from graft to draining lymph nodes (dLN) via afferent lymphatics is required for Treg suppressive function. Treg lymphotoxin alpha beta (LTαβ)…2022 American Transplant Congress
Donor-Specific Hyporesponsiveness Following Kidney Transplantation is Explained by Progressive Loss of Donor-Reactive Polyfunctional Cd4+ Effector Memory T Cells
Internal Medicine, Erasmus MC, Rotterdam, Netherlands
*Purpose: After kidney transplantation, donor-specific hyporesponsiveness (DSH) develops which is defined as a lowered response of alloreactive T cells to donor antigen while retaining response…2022 American Transplant Congress
Antibody and Cellular Immunity After Primary mRNA Vaccination in Adolescents with Stable Liver or Liver-Inclusive Intestine Allografts
*Purpose: Transplant recipients experience lower seroconversion rates after COVID-19 vaccination compared with healthy adults and have been prioritized to receive booster doses. To assess pre-…2022 American Transplant Congress
Differences of Fk-Binding Protein 12 and P-Glycoprotein Explain the Differences in the Intracellular Tacrolimus Concentration of T Lymphocytes and Monocytes
Erasmus MC, Rotterdam, Netherlands
*Purpose: Little is known about the pharmacokinetics of intracellular tacrolimus, particularly in T lymphocytes and monocytes. We demonstrated a significantly lower intracellular tacrolimus concentration in…2022 American Transplant Congress
Detection of Alloreactive CD8+ T Cell Responses and the Immunopeptidome That Elicits Their Activation
*Purpose: T cell-mediated rejection results in graft dysfunction and contributes to premature failure. Due to the complexity of the TCR:pMHC interaction, prediction of alloreactive T…2022 American Transplant Congress
Gm2a Regulates Memory Cd8+ T Cell Activation and Differentiation
*Purpose: In a clinical trial, patients who underwent kidney transplantation and were subsequently stable off tacrolimus immunosuppression exhibited increased Gm2a transcript in PBMC relative to…2022 American Transplant Congress
Gm2a: A Novel Regulatory Pathway Controlling CD8+ T Cell Alloimmunity
1Department of Surgery, Emory University, Atlanta, GA, 2Mount Sinai School of Medicine, New York, NY
*Purpose: Transplant recipients experience lifelong immunosuppression, yet studies have shown that a subset of patients may be able to retain stable graft function even with…
