Donor-But Not Recipient-Derived Cells Produce Collagen-1 in Chronically Rejected Cardiac Allografts
Fibrosis is a prominent feature of chronic allograft rejection, caused by an excessive production of matrix proteins, including collagen-1. Several cell types produce collagen-1, including mesenchymal fibroblasts and cells of hematopoietic origin.

Missing self triggers NK cell-mediated chronic vascular rejection of solid organ transplants
Current doctrine is that microvascular inflammation (MVI) triggered by a transplant -recipient antibody response against alloantigens (antibody-mediated rejection) is the main cause of graft failure.

Pathogenesis of chronic allograft rejection [PDF]
Chronic allograft nephropathy (CAN) is, besides death of the recipient with graft function, the most common cause of renal transplant loss. It is characterized by loss of function and replacement of tissue by fibrotic material. The pathogenesis is not clear, but seems to be multifactorial and involves events both early and late after transplantation ...

NK Cells: Not Just Followers But Also Initiators of Chronic Vascular Rejection
Chronic graft rejection represents a significant threat to long-term graft survival. Early diagnosis, understanding of the immunological mechanisms and appropriate therapeutic management are essential to improve graft survival and quality of life for ...

CD4+CD25+Foxp3+T cell population is heterogenous and contains three major sub-groups. First, thymus derived T regulatory cells (tTreg) that are naïve/resting. Second, activated/memory Treg that are produced by activation of tTreg by antigen and cytokines.

ABSTRACT Background In Ewing sarcoma (EwS), metastases, including those to bone marrow (BM), are the main factors influencing prognosis. Although reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT‐PCR) offers greater sensitivity, the current EWING protocol defines BM metastases solely using light microscopic detection.

Intrahepatic bile duct strictures after human orthotopic liver transplantation - Recurrence of primary sclerosing cholangitis or unusual presentation of allograft rejection? [PDF]
One of 55 patients transplanted for sclerosing cholangitis during the cyclosporin-steroid era (March 1980-June 1986) developed intrahepatic biliary strictures in the absence of allograft rejection within the 1st year posttransplantation.
