Characterizing pre-transplant and post-transplant kidney rejection risk by B cell immune repertoire sequencing. [PDF]
Studying immune repertoire in the context of organ transplant provides important information on how adaptive immunity may contribute and modulate graft rejection. Here we characterize the peripheral blood immune repertoire of individuals before and after

Intestinal transplantation in composite visceral grafts or alone [PDF]
Under FK 506-based immunosuppression, the entire cadaver small bowel except for a few proximal and distal centimeters was translated to 17 randomly matched patients, of whom two had antigraft cytotoxic antibodies (positive cross-match).

Donor-Derived Cell-Free DNA to Diagnose Graft Rejection Post-Transplant: Past, Present and Future
Donor-derived cell-free DNA (dd-cfDNA) is a non-invasive biomarker that is more sensitive and specific towards diagnosing any graft injury or rejection. Due to its applicability over all transplanted organs irrespective of age, sex, race, ethnicity, and ...

Corneal Allograft Rejection: Immunopathogenesis to Therapeutics [PDF]
Corneal transplantation is among the most successful solid organ transplants. However, despite low rejection rates of grafts in the ‘low-risk’ setting, rejection can be as high as 70% when grafted into ‘high-risk’ recipient beds. Under normal homeostatic

An endothelial rejection line following Descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty
Background The endothelial rejection line is rarely seen after Descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasties (DSAEKs). Here, we present a case of endothelial graft rejection with an endothelial rejection line occurring 1 year after the ...

Approaches toward enhancing survival probability following deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty
The greatest advantage of deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty over full-thickness corneal transplantation is the elimination of graft failure caused by endothelial rejection.

Is rejection a diffuse or localized process in small-bowel transplantation? [PDF]
Utilization of endoscopy to both visualize and selectively biopsy an intestinal allograft has become the standard for early recognition and treatment of intestinal allograft rejection.
