A model of sequential heart and composite tissue allotransplant in rats.
(Plast Reconstr Surg, 2010-07)BACKGROUND: Some of the 600,000 patients with solid organ allotransplants need reconstruction with a composite tissue allotransplant, such as the hand, abdominal wall, or face. The aim of this study was to develop a rat ... -
A novel reduced-intensity conditioning regimen for unrelated umbilical cord blood transplantation in children with nonmalignant diseases.
(Biology of blood and marrow transplantation : journal of the American Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation, 2014-03)Reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC) regimens have the potential to decrease transplantation-related morbidity and mortality. However, engraftment failure has been prohibitively high after RIC unrelated umbilical cord blood ... -
Costimulation Blockade in Vascularized Composite Allotransplantation.
(Frontiers in immunology, 2020-01)Vascular composite allotransplantation (VCA) is a field under research and has emerged as an alternative option for the repair of severe disfiguring defects that result from infections or traumatic amputation in a selected ... -
Donor apoptotic cell-based therapy for effective inhibition of donor-specific memory T and B cells to promote long-term allograft survival in allosensitized recipients.
(American journal of transplantation : official journal of the American Society of Transplantation and the American Society of Transplant Surgeons, 2020-10)Allosensitization constitutes a major barrier in transplantation. Preexisting donor-reactive memory T and B cells and preformed donor-specific antibodies (DSAs) have all been implicated in accelerated allograft rejection ... -
Durable Chimerism and Long-Term Survival after Unrelated Umbilical Cord Blood Transplantation for Pediatric Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis: A Single-Center Experience.
(Biology of blood and marrow transplantation : journal of the American Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation, 2017-10)Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a life-threatening disorder of immune dysregulation characterized by fever, hepatosplenomegaly, cytopenias, central nervous system disease, increased inflammatory markers, and ... -
Eighth Annual International Umbilical Cord Blood Transplantation Symposium, San Francisco, California, June 3-5, 2010.

Enhanced de novo alloantibody and antibody-mediated injury in rhesus macaques.
(Am J Transplant, 2012-09)Chronic allograft rejection is a major impediment to long-term transplant success. Humoral immune responses to alloantigens are a growing clinical problem in transplantation, with mounting evidence associating alloantibodies ... -
Impact of Leukocyte Function-Associated Antigen-1 Blockade on Endogenous Allospecific T Cells to Multiple Minor Histocompatibility Antigen Mismatched Cardiac Allograft.
(Transplantation, 2015-12)BACKGROUND: Blocking leukocyte function-associated antigen (LFA)-1 in organ transplant recipients prolongs allograft survival. However, the precise mechanisms underlying the therapeutic potential of LFA-1 blockade in preventing ... -
Incidence of Postreperfusion Hyperfibrinolysis in Liver Transplantation by Donor Type and Observed Treatment Strategies.
(Anesthesia and analgesia, 2023-03)<h4>Background</h4>Hyperfibrinolysis is a possible complication during liver transplantation, particularly immediately after reperfusion.<h4>Methods</h4>We performed a retrospective study to examine the incidence, treatment, ... -
Influence of nucleated cell dose on overall survival of unrelated cord blood transplantation for patients with severe acquired aplastic anemia: a study by eurocord and the aplastic anemia working party of the European group for blood and marrow transplantation.
(Biology of blood and marrow transplantation : journal of the American Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation, 2011-01)Information is scarce on outcomes after unrelated cord blood transplantation (UCBT) for patients with severe aplastic anemia (SAA). We retrospectively analyzed 71 patients (median age, 13 years; 28 adults) with SAA (9 with ... -
Interleukin-15 receptor blockade in non-human primate kidney transplantation.
(Transplantation, 2010-04-27)BACKGROUND: Interleukin (IL)-15 is a chemotactic factor to T cells. It induces proliferation and promotes survival of activated T cells. IL-15 receptor blockade in mouse cardiac and islet allotransplant models has led to ... -
Lung Transplantation and the Era of the Sensitized Patient.
(Frontiers in immunology, 2021-01)Long term outcomes in lung transplant are limited by the development of chronic lung allograft dysfunction (CLAD). Within the past several decades, antibody-mediated rejection (AMR) has been recognized as a risk factor for ... -
Neutralizing BAFF/APRIL with atacicept prevents early DSA formation and AMR development in T cell depletion induced nonhuman primate AMR model.
(Am J Transplant, 2015-03)Depletional strategies directed toward achieving tolerance induction in organ transplantation have been associated with an increased incidence and risk of antibody-mediated rejection (AMR) and graft injury. Our clinical ... -
Phase I/II Study of Stem-Cell Transplantation Using a Single Cord Blood Unit Expanded Ex Vivo With Nicotinamide.
(Journal of clinical oncology : official journal of the American Society of Clinical Oncology, 2019-02)<h4>Purpose</h4>Increasing the number of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells within an umbilical cord blood (UCB) graft shortens the time to hematopoietic recovery after UCB transplantation. In this study, we assessed ... -
Plerixafor (a CXCR4 antagonist) following myeloablative allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation enhances hematopoietic recovery.
(J Hematol Oncol, 2018-03-04)BACKGROUND: The binding of CXCR4 with its ligand (stromal-derived factor-1) maintains hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPCs) in a quiescent state. We hypothesized that blocking CXCR4/SDF-1 interaction after hematopoietic ... -
Pre-engraftment syndrome after myeloablative dual umbilical cord blood transplantation: risk factors and response to treatment.
(Bone marrow transplantation, 2013-07)High fevers and/or rashes prior to neutrophil engraftment are frequently observed after umbilical cord blood (UCB) transplantation, and the condition is referred to as pre-engraftment syndrome (PES). Few studies have evaluated ... -
Sensitization and Desensitization in Vascularized Composite Allotransplantation.
