Beneficial Effects of Argon Inhalation on Reducing Lung Ischemia-reperfusion Injury in Miniature Swine
*Purpose: Noble gases, such as xenon and argon (Ar), are chemically inert but have shown to have cytoprotective effect. In contrast to xenon, Ar is…2021 American Transplant Congress
Hypoxia Inducible Factor 1á (HIF-1á) Regulates Carcinoembryonic Antigen-related Cell Adhesion Molecule-1 (CEACAM1) Splice Isoforms to Protect Against Ischemic Injury in Mouse and Human Liver Transplantation
The Dumont-UCLA Transplantation Center, Los Angeles, CA
*Purpose: CEACAM1 (CC1) is a transmembrane glycoprotein that undergoes extensive alternative splicing (AS) to generate CC1-S and CC1-L. It is currently unclear which of these…2020 American Transplant Congress
Short Recipient Warm Ischemia Time Improves Graft Survival in Liver Transplantation from Donation after Brain Death: 20-Year Experience of Liver Transplantation
Transplant Institute, Henry Ford Hospital, Detroit, MI
*Purpose: Although the correlation between warm ischemia time (WIT) and the outcomes of liver transplantation has been extensively studied, few investigations have focused on the…2020 American Transplant Congress
Benefits of Normothermia Regional Perfusion (NRP), Hypothermic Machine Perfusion (HMP) and Short Cold Ischemia Time (CIT) for Kidney Transplants with Controlled Donation after Circulatory Death (cDCD)
*Purpose: cDCD are considered as extended criteria donors with poorer kidney transplant outcomes and high delayed graft function (DGF) rate. We built a French national…2020 American Transplant Congress
Roles of Calpastatin in Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury in Aged Livers
Surgery, Washington University St. Louis, St. Louis, MO
*Purpose: Aged livers are far more susceptible to ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury than young livers. No therapeutic strategies are available to reduce I/R injury in elderly…2020 American Transplant Congress
Initial North American Experience in Renal Transplantation from Medical Assistance in Dying Donors

*Purpose: In 2016, Canadian federal legislation was passed creating a regulatory framework for medical assistance in dying (MAiD) for individuals who are suffering from a…2020 American Transplant Congress
The Learning Curve for Pure Laparoscopic Robotic Kidney Transplantation: An Analysis of Outcomes of the First 80 Consecutive Cases at a High-Volume Transplant Center
*Purpose: Robotic surgery is increasingly used in complex operations, including living-donor kidney transplantation. At this time, knowledge of the number of cases required to attain…2020 American Transplant Congress
Creation of a Low-Cost Kidney Transplant Surgery Simulator and Survey of its Utility for Education
Department of Surgery, Saint Louis University, Saint Louis, MO
*Purpose: Surgical skills education in transplant surgery is challenging as center-specific outcomes are scrutinized and trainees’ exposure to the sub-specialty is decreasing. Simulation could overcome…2020 American Transplant Congress
Type 1 Innate Lymphoid Cells Are Critical Pro-Inflammatory Effector Cells in a Fatty Liver Mouse Model of Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury
MedStar Georgetown Transplant Institute, Washington, DC
*Purpose: Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs), the most recently described family of lymphoid cells, play fundamental roles in tissue homeostasis and immune regulation through the activation…2020 American Transplant Congress
The Impact of Transportation Innovation for Human Organs: Surgical Perspectives and Implications
