BHLHE40 Orchestrates Effector Tissue‐Resident Memory CD8+ T Cells and Limits Long‐Term Survival of Kidney Graft

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An effector subset of TRM, defined as CD49a+PD1hi CD8+ TRM, represents a BHLHE40‐orchestrated resident immune component that, rather than circulating cells, plays as a major contributor to allograft rejection. ABSTRACT Tissue‐resident memory T cells (TRM), which function against tumors, infections, and non‐self antigens in organ transplantation ...

Renal vessel–assisted anastomosis improves the abdominal heart transplant model in rats without bilateral lower limb ischemia

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
A modified heterotopic heart transplantation (HTx) in rats was reported to improve the surgical success rate, in which the donor's vessels, the brachiocephalic trunk (BT) and the pulmonary artery (PA), were sutured to the recipient's left renal artery (RA) and left renal vein (RV).

Extent and Incidence of Pseudo‐Worsening of Kidney Function Due to Oral Antitumor Therapeutics in the AMBORA Cohort: An Analysis of Real‐World Data

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
A considerable number of oral antitumor therapeutics (OAT) has the potential for causing pseudo‐worsening of kidney function (PW) due to inhibition of renal creatinine secretion, i.e., kidney function is unaffected, while creatinine‐based calculation of glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) erroneously indicates an impaired kidney function.

Remnant kidney function and size in living unrelated kidney donors after nephrectomy

Saudi Journal of Kidney Diseases and Transplantation, 2010
There are few published reports examining the extended outcome of donors after nephrectomy. The aim of present prospective study was to evaluate the changes of glomerular fil-tration rate (GFR) and ultrasonographic kidney size in unrelated living kidney ...

Real‐world efficacy and toxicity of ipilimumab and nivolumab as a first‐line treatment for advanced renal cell carcinoma according to IMDC risk criteria—A multi‐center retrospective analysis on behalf of the GUARDIANS group

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
What's New? The combination of ipilimumab and nivolumab as a first‐line treatment for advanced renal cell carcinoma has demonstrated durable response and tolerability in clinical trials. However, inclusion criteria for clinical studies are restrictive, and patients in the real‐world setting tend to have more comorbidities.

Robot‐assisted resection of diaphragmatic and hepatorenal recess peritoneal endometriosis: Two cases and a narrative review

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract In this report, we describe two cases of diaphragmatic endometriosis with concurrent hepatorenal recess peritoneal involvement managed using robotic‐assisted laparoscopic surgery with the da Vinci Xi platform. In both patients, diaphragmatic implants and hepatorenal recess peritoneal lesions were excised en bloc, followed by resection of ...
