Hamster to rat cardiac xenografts undergo delayed rejection as compared with the hyperacute rejection of discordant xenografts. Elicited xenoreactive Abs (EXA) are thought to initiate hamster to rat cardiac xenograft rejection. In this study, we demonstrate that following transplantation of a hamster heart, rats generated high levels of EXA. Adoptive transfer into naive recipients of purified I...
Despite recent improvements in immunosuppressive therapy, hepatic allograft rejection remains a major cause of morbidity and late graft loss in patients undergoing liver transplantation. Although some biochemical tests suggest hepatic allograft damage, the gold standard for defining rejection remains based on morphologic findings. Acute cellular rejection usually occurs within the first 3 weeks...
Delayed or cellular hypersensitivity is the primary immunologic mechanism in the rejection of organ homografts. Mounting evidence implicates the small lymphocyte as the cell responsible for implementing this reaction. The immunologic role of the lymphocyte in the graft-versus-host reaction was first recognized by Simonsen (1957). He showed that if newborn or heavily irradiated mice are injected...
Early wound excision and grafting of burn wounds is regarded not only as the method of choice in speeding up the healing process in deep burns, but also limits contracture and infection, On the other hand, smoking has generally been implicated in the delay of the healing process in a variety of surgical procedures, In this study we report the outcome of a cross-sectional study of all the 39...
BACKGROUND The standard test for the diagnosis of acute rejection in kidney transplants is the renal biopsy. Noninvasive tests would be preferable. METHODS We prospectively collected 4300 urine specimens from 485 kidney-graft recipients from day 3 through month 12 after transplantation. Messenger RNA (mRNA) levels were measured in urinary cells and correlated with allograft-rejection status w...
The Heart Allograft Rejection: Detection with Breath Alkanes in Low Levels study evaluated a breath test for oxidative stress in heart transplant recipients, and we report here a mathematical model predicting the probability of grade 3 rejection. The breath test divided the heart transplant recipients into 3 groups: positive for grade 3 rejection, negative for grade 3 rejection, and intermediat...
BACKGROUND Percutaneous biopsy is the method of choice for differential diagnosis of renal allograft dysfunction, although it is not risk-free. The use of less aggressive methods for diagnosis should limit the need for percutaneous biopsy to some specific situations. METHODS We analysed 42 fine-needle aspiration biopsies from 36 kidney allograft recipients immunosuppressed with quadruple sequ...
OBJECTIVES Asymptomatic rejection after heart transplant is difficult to detect by noninvasive methods. The present study investigated the efficacy of echocardiographic strain and the strain rate imaging method in detecting rejection after pediatric heart transplant. MATERIALS AND METHODS Fourteen pediatric patients with heart transplant were examined both with endomyocardial biopsy and strai...
We developed an ecologically valid virtual peer interaction paradigm--the Chatroom Interact Task in which 60 pre-adolescents and adolescents (ages 9-17 years) were led to believe that they were interacting with other youth in a simulated internet chatroom. Youth received rejection and acceptance feedback from virtual peers. Findings revealed increased pupil dilation, an index of increased activ...
After liver transplantation, a relatively low intensity immunosuppressive regimen is employed in our unit: after initial triple therapy (prednisolone, azathioprine, cyclosporin), prednisolone is discontinued at three months and azathioprine at one year. A retrospective study was therefore performed to determine the incidence of rejection, and to identify risk factors for rejection in our patien...
