Abstract:
Circulating leukocytes activated during rejection of organ allografts could potentially have generalized effects on systemic blood vessels of the transplant recipient. Experiments were designed, therefore, to determine the function of the endothelium and smooth muscle of arteries from nontransplanted organs in dogs who received single lung transplants. Dogs underwent single lung allotransplantation and were immunosuppressed for 5 days. Immunosuppression was then withheld for 3 days, allowing rejection to occur. Dogs were studied at this time (rejecting) or following treatment for rejection for

Abstract:
First performed in the 1960s with long-term successes achieved in the 1980s, lung transplantation remains the only definitive treatment option for end-stage lung disease. Chronic lung rejection, pathologically classified as obliterative bronchiolitis (OB) with its clinical correlate referred to as bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome, is the limiting factor than keeps 5-yr survival rates for lung transplant significantly worse than for other solid organ transplants. Initially, OB was largely attributed to immune responses to donor antigens, alloimmunity. However, more recent work has demonstrated

Abstract:
Background. Bronchus-associated lymphoid tissue (BALT) has been associated with lung allograft rejection in rat transplant models. In human transplant recipients, BALT has not been linked to clinically significant rejection. We hypothesize that the immunohistochemical composition of BALT varies with the presence of acute lung allograft rejection.Methods. We retrospectively examined 40 human lung allograft recipients transplanted from 3/1/1999 to 6/1/2008. Patients were grouped by frequency and severity of acute rejection based on International Society of Heart Lung Transplant (ISHLT) criteria.

Abstract:
Experiments were designed to determine responses of pulmonary arteries from an acutely rejecting, transplanted lung to rejection-activated mononuclear cells. Pulmonary arteries and macrophage-depleted mononuclear cells were obtained from unoperated dogs (control) and dogs with rejecting single lung allotransplants (transplanted, rejecting). In some arteries, the endothelium was removed deliberately. Pulmonary arteries were suspended for measurement of isometric force in organ chambers. Contractions to potassium chloride (60 M) were greater in rings of pulmonary arteries from rejecting compared

Abstract Hematopoietic Stem cell Transplantation (HSCT) is the definitive treatment for bone marrow failure in diskeratosis congenita (DC). Organ dysfunction (mainly lung and gastrointestinal tract) are often part of the disease and may be a limiting factor for or may affect the final outcome of HSCT. Scarce data or relatively small cohort studies are available in current literature on outcome of HSCT in this disease. We analyzed the outcome of 87 patients diagnosed with DC reported in the data base of the European Society for Blood an Bone Marrow Transplantation (EBMT) who underwent HSCT from

Abstract:
Lung transplantation is the only definitive treatment modality for many forms of end-stage lung disease. However, the lung is rejected more often than any other type of solid organ allograft due to chronic rejection known as bronchiolitis obliterans (BO). Indeed, BO is the primary reason why the 5- and 7-yr survival rates are worse for the lung than for any other transplanted organ. Alloimmunity to donor antigens is established as the primary mechanism that mediates rejection responses. However, newer immunosuppressive regimens designed to abrogate alloimmune activation have not improved survi

For patients lacking haplo-identical relatives, other sources of CD34 progenitors are needed. Methods: We identified partially matched unrelated donors for patients lacking suitable haplo-identical donors -including second-degree relatives - and who otherwise were candidates for haplo-cord transplant. Most were treated on prospective studies (clinicaltrials.gov 00943800 and 01810588). For 5 patients, U

Abstract Abstract 2455 Poster Board II-432 Introduction: While hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) offers a cure for many hematologic diseases, it remains plagued by often fatal graft-versus-host disease (GvHD). Despite the inadequacy of current GvHD prevention strategies, especially for MHC-mismatched HSCT, the pace of the clinical introduction of novel therapeutics has been slow, likely due to the lack of a suitable translational model to rigorously test the immunologic and clinical impact of novel biologic therapies. Among the most promising of these therapies include those that

Benefits of early transplant versus transplant-related morbidity and mortality have been debated. With increased time to transplant, MDS pts are more likely to undergo increased numbers of blood transfusions, experience more cytopenias, and are at risk of disease progression. Transplant offers a cure for MDS, and advances in supportive care during and after transplantation have afforded better outcomes and increased numbers of older pts to undergo transplant. Depletion

Abstract Background Passenger Lymphocyte Syndrome (PLS) is a rare complication of solid organ transplantation (SOT) and is marked by production of donor-derived antibodies towards host red blood cell (RBC) antigens. At Canada's largest SOT program, >400 transplants are conducted annually. The affiliated Transfusion Laboratory detects possible cases of PLS when previously seronegative hosts develop (delayed, non-transfusion-attributable) post-transplant antibodies (Ab) bearing unexpected, autoreactive (rather than alloreactive) RBC specificities.
