Synthetic Hydrogels Incorporating Hydrolytic/Nonhydrolytic Macromer Ratios Exhibit Improved Tunability of In Vivo Degradation and Immune Responses

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A synthetic 4‐arm maleimide‐terminated poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG‐4MAL) hydrogel system that combines hydrolytic ester‐linked macromer (PEG‐4eMAL) with nondegradable amide‐linked macromer (PEG‐4aMAL) in various stoichiometric ratios to tune the degradability rate. The macromers are crosslinked with dithiothreitol via thiol‐maleimide click reaction. The

Monitoring kidney optical properties during cold storage preservation with spatial frequency domain imaging. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Transplantation of kidneys results in delayed graft function in as many as 40% of cases. During the organ transplantation process, donor kidneys undergo a period of cold ischemic time (CIT), where the organ is preserved with a cold storage solution to ...

Renal papillary carcinoma developed in a kidney transplant recipient with late IgA-nephropathy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
With improvements in immunosuppressive therapy, patient and graft survival in renal transplant recipients have been prolonged. Increasing donor age and patient survival rates have been related to an increase in the number of de novo tumors ...

Paediatric kidney transplantation

open access: yesAnnals of Medicine, 1998
Renal transplantation is the optimal form of renal replacement therapy leading to substantial improvement in the quality of life. It has rapidly become the standard treatment for end-stage renal disease in children. However, despite impressive short-term results significant long-term problems remain unsolved.
