IL-17-Producing CCR6+CD4+ Th17 Cells Drive Intestinal Allograft Rejection in Humans.
MedStar Georgetown Transplant Institute, Washington DC.
A. Allograft rejection remains a significant source of mortality and morbidity in intestinal transplant (ITx) recipients. However, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. The purpose of…2016 American Transplant Congress
CTLA4 Negatively Regulates Donor-Reactive CXCR5+PD1+ T Follicular Helper Cell Responses Following Transplantation.
1Emory Transplant Center, Atlanta; 2Bristol-Myers Squibb, Princeton.
Costimulation blockade of the CD28 pathway in the form of CTLA4Ig is known to attenuate T cell dependent antibody responses. T follicular helper (Tfh) cells…2015 American Transplant Congress
Notch-1 Inhibition Promotes Immune Regulation in Solid Organ Transplantation
Notch receptor signaling plays a key role in T cell activation and differentiation, though limited data exist on its importance in immune regulation. Herein, we…2015 American Transplant Congress
Human Gingival Tissue-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells Reduce Murine Acute GVHD Via Killing of Effector CD8+ Cells Through CD39/Adenosine A1R and A2BR Pathways
Human gingival tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (GMSCs) are a convenient source of MSCs that have been shown to treat autoimmune disease. Here we use human…2015 American Transplant Congress
Defining and Directing T Cell Subsets Involved in Rejection of Vascularized Composite Allografts
Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, MD.
Purpose: Wider utilization of VCA is hampered by the need for long-term immunosuppression. Barriers to more targeted immunosuppression in VCA include (1) limited knowledge of…2015 American Transplant Congress
Mononuclear Cell Infiltrates Characterization in Scar Tissue from a Bilateral Forearm Transplant Patient: Findings to Think
Herein we report the cell infiltrating pattern in scar tissue resected at the junction of the VCA and the tissue corresponding to the recipient arm,…2015 American Transplant Congress
Blocking CD40/CD154 Co-Stimulation Prevents Acute Antibody-Mediated Renal Allograft Rejection Induced by Memory CD4 T Cells
Immunology, The Cleveland Clinic, Cleveland, OH.
Immunosuppression-resistant alloreactive memory CD4 T cells induce robust responses against organ transplants. In murine heart allograft recipients donor-reactive memory CD4 T cells provide help for…2015 American Transplant Congress
Mechanisms Underlying Treg Dysfunction in DAIH- Role for PD-L1?
Background: we have previously shown that ex vivo Tregs from patients with DAIH demonstrate differentiation plasticity towards TH17. To understand the mechanisms underlying this we…2015 American Transplant Congress
Leukocyte Associated Immunoglobulin-Like Receptor 1 inhibits Th1 But Enhances Th17 Responses
Background: Leukocyte Associated Immunoglobulin-like Receptor 1 (LAIR1), is a transmembrane receptor expressed by immune cells. It recognizes collagen repeats via its extracellular domain and has…2015 American Transplant Congress
Th17 Mediates Inflammatory Responses After Lung Transplantation
Background: Long-term outcomes after lung transplantation are markedly worse than for other organs. The mechanisms that determine lung transplant rejection are not clear. The role…
