C-reactive protein orchestrates acute allograft rejection in vascularized composite allotransplantation via selective activation of monocyte subsets

Journal of Advanced Research
Introduction: Despite advancements in transplant immunology and vascularized composite allotransplantation (VCA), the longevity of allografts remains hindered by the challenge of allograft rejection.

Biodistribution and Immunogenicity of Allogeneic Mesenchymal Stem Cells in a Rat Model of Intraarticular Chondrocyte Xenotransplantation

Frontiers in Immunology, 2017
Xenogeneic chondrocytes and allogeneic mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) are considered a potential source of cells for articular cartilage repair. We here assessed the immune response triggered by xenogeneic chondrocytes when injected intraarticularly, as ...

NNMT Orchestrates Metabolic‐Epigenetic Reprogramming to Drive Macrophage‐Myofibroblast Transition in Hypertrophic Scarring

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In macrophage‐myofibroblast transition, upregulated NNMT depletes S‐Adenosylmethionine‌ (SAM) and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide(NAD+), thereby triggering epigenetic reprogramming via Histone H3 Lysine 27 acetylation (H3K27ac) accumulation at the promoter region of master transcription factor Prrx1.

Substantially Altered Local and Systemic Immunity in Ischemia‐Free Versus Conventional Liver Transplantation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study investigates how ischemia‐free liver transplantation (IFLT) shapes both local and systemic immune responses compared with conventional liver transplantation (CLT). Our findings demonstrate that IFLT confers significant immunological protection by attenuating the STAT3‐HIF‐1α axis and enhancing the Heme‐HMOX1 pathway, two regulatory networks ...

Landscape of the immune infiltration and identification of molecular diagnostic markers associated with immune cells in patients with kidney transplantation

Scientific Reports
Rejection seriously affects the success of kidney transplantations. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying this rejection remain unclear. The GSE21374 and GSE36059 datasets were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database.
