The Proteomic Signature of Intestinal Acute Rejection in the Mouse

Metabolites, 2021
Intestinal acute rejection (AR) lacks a reliable non-invasive biomarker and AR surveillance is conducted through frequent endoscopic biopsies. Although citrulline and calprotectin have been suggested as AR biomarkers, these have limited clinical value ...

Rorc restrains the potency of ST2+ regulatory T cells in ameliorating intestinal graft-versus-host disease [PDF]

, 2019
Soluble stimulation-2 (ST2) is increased during graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), while Tregs that express ST2 prevent GVHD through unknown mechanisms.

Passenger Lymphocyte Syndrome as a rare cause of hemolysis in a patient after small intestine transplantation, A case report and review of the literature

Asian Journal of Transfusion Science, 2022
Passenger lymphocyte syndrome (PLS) is a well-described phenomenon causing immune hemolytic anemia, mostly in non-ABO identical transplantations. The syndrome occurs when donor lymphocytes produce antibodies against the recipient's red blood cells ...

Long-Term Signs of T Cell and Myeloid Cell Activation After Intestinal Transplantation With Cellular Rejections Contributing to Further Increase of CD16+ Cell Subsets

Frontiers in Immunology, 2019
The intestine mediates a delicate balance between tolerogenic and inflammatory immune responses. The continuous pathogen encounter might also augment immune cell responses contributing to complications observed upon intestinal transplantation (ITx).

Fecal Microbiota and Human Intestinal Fluid Transplantation: Methodologies and Outlook

Frontiers in Medicine, 2022
Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) is a therapy that involves the transplantation of healthy human fecal microorganisms into the gut of patients to rebuild or consolidate the intestinal microecology. It has been utilized in many diseases.
