Myeloid Cell-Specific Heme Oxygenase-1 Is Crucial for Hepatoprotection in Liver Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury
Background and Aim: Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), an anti-oxidant enzyme, is essential in tissue resistance against innate immunity driven ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI). Our group was the…2015 American Transplant Congress
Profound Effect of HDAC2 Deletion on Renal Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury Is Intrinsic to the Kidney and Includes Protection Against Cold Ischemia
Introduction: Histone/protein deacetylases (HDACs) regulate gene expression by modifying chromatin accessibility and protein acetylation. We have previously found that deletion of HDAC2 protects from renal…2015 American Transplant Congress
Damage Associated Molecular Patterns (DAMPs)-Activated Neutrophil Extracellular Trap Formation Exacerbates Liver Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury
Department of Surgery, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, PA.
Liver ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury is a clinically important phenomenon encountered during transplantation that contributes to initial graft function and subsequent allograft rejection. Formation of neutrophil…2015 American Transplant Congress
Macrophage-Specific SIRT1 Regulates HO-1 Mediated Anti-Inflammatory and Cytoprotective Pathways
Background/Aim: Sirtuin1 (SIRT1), a NAD+-dependent type III histone/protein deacetylase, is essential for resistance against liver ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI). We asked whether SIRT1 may affect cytoprotective…2015 American Transplant Congress
The Impact of Cytokine Release Caused By Induction Immunosupression On Nitric Oxide in Renal transplantation
IntroductionVarying induction immunosuppression regimens have a differential impact on the pattern of cytokine release. Pro-inflammatory cytokines stimulate endothelial cells causing secretion of NO. Serum nitrite…
