    Prolonged Survival with Co-Stimulatory Blockade Based Immunosuppression in Pig-to-Primate Liver Xenotransplantation.

    J. Shah, M. Patel, N. Elias, I. Rosales, N. Navarro-Alvarez, M. Hertl, A. Cosimi, R. Colvin, J. Markmann, D. Sachs, P. Vagefi.

    Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, MA

    Background: Since the first attempt in 1968, survival following pig-to-baboon liver xenotransplantation (LXT) has been limited to <9-days due to a lethal coagulopathy. To improve…

    Lack of Xenograft Recipient Monitoring by Telemetry Lets Infection Go Unchecked and Trigger Coagulopathy.

    M. Mohiuddin,1 A. Singh,1 J. Chan,1 P. Corcoran,1 B. Lewis,2 M. Thomas,2 D. Ayares,3 K. Horvath.1

    1NHLBI / NIH, Bethesda; 2ORS / NIH, Bethesda; 3Revivicor, Inc, Blackburgh

    Introduction: A major complication of a xenograft is the potential for coagulation disorder characterized by thrombocytopenia and bleeding. This complication was rarely seen in our…

    Human PDL1+ SLA-DR– Swine Vascular Endothelial Cells Suppress Pig-Human PBMC Xeno-MLR(Mixed Lymphocyte Reaction) by Inducing Human Regulatory IL-10+Tr1(Type 1 Regulatory T Cells) Subset for Suppression of Xenogeneic Reactions.

    Q. Shao, Q. Diag.

    The Department of Immunology, School of Medicine, Jiangsu University, Zhenjiang, Jiangsu Province, China.

    Type 1 regulatory T cells(Tr1) are active in transplantation tolerance. The Tr1 cells are inducible in our lab from human CD4 T cells (hCD4 T)…
