The Hyperimmunized Recipient

چکیده
HYPERACUTE rejection (HAR) of the kidney was first recognized 20 years ago in cases of donor-recipient incompatibility for the major blood group and tissue antigen systems. I•3 Recently, three patients at the University of Pittsburgh developed immediate graft dysfunction after receiving a kidney from an ABO-compatible cadaveric donor with a negative warm lymphocytotoxic crossmatch. None of the patients had prior transplants or transfusion therapy, and the ischemia times were comparable. One patients had a high panel reactive antibody (PRA) (100% remote, 76% at transplant). The immunopathologic and histopathologic features of these cases were compared with those of a control group without HAR. Our findings suggest that the cascade involved in HAR may be triggered by mechanisms other than those classically described.

DbpA, but not OspA, is expressed by Borrelia burgdorferi during spirochetemia and is a target for protective antibodies.
DbpA is a target for antibodies that protect mice against infection by cultured Borrelia burgdorferi. Infected mice exhibit early and sustained humoral responses to DbpA and DbpB, suggesting that these proteins are expressed in vivo. Many antigens expressed in mammals by B. burgdorferi are repressed in vitro at lower growth temperatures, and we have now extended these observations to include Db...

The V2 carcinoma-a transplanted rabbit cancer derived originally from a virus-induced papilloma and carrying in masked or altered form the virus primarily responsible for it-was propagated in five successive groups of animals all previously hyperimmunized against the papilloma virus. The cancer grew as well in the hyperimmunized hosts as in normal animals implanted during the same months; and s...
متن کاملAnti-dna Antibodies in Hyperimmunized Rabbits
Complement-fixing anti-DNA antibodies were detected in a minority of sera of rabbits hyperimmunized with killed Gram-negative bacteria. The C'-fixing property of DNA was lost after DNase treatment. Preferential reactivity with denatured DNA was observed. The antisera reacted with DNA preparations derived from rabbit bone marrow and thymus, calf thymus, pneumococci, salmon sperm, and Escherichia...

Background: In a recent study, we were able to demonstrate a role for leukocyte transfer in the induction of liver damage in recipient mice after induction of IR (60 min of bilateral renal artery occlusion and 3 hrs reperfusion) injury in donors. The present study investigates the role of leukocyte transfer in the induction of kidney damage in recipient mice after induction of renal IR injury i...
