Immunology of skin transplantation

open access: yesClinics in Dermatology, 2005
Untreated viable allogeneic skin is highly immunogenic. Epidermal Langerhans migrate after transplantation out of the donor skin into the lymph node of the recipient where they can activate T cells capable to mediate rejection. Allogeneic skin is used as a temporary coverage of burn wounds, often in combination with autologous skin grafts.

Stem cell transplantation uncovers TDO-AHR regulation of lung dendritic cells in herpesvirus-induced pathology

open access: yesJCI Insight, 2021
The aryl-hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) is an intracellular sensor of aromatic hydrocarbons that sits at the top of various immunomodulatory pathways. Here, we present evidence that AHR plays a role in controlling IL-17 responses and the development of ...

On the crossroad between tolerance and posttransplant lymphoma. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
The role of the Epstein-Barr virus in the development of post-transplant lymphomas is well established. However, not all lymphomas that arise in these patients contain Epstein-Barr virus, suggesting that other cofactors are involved in tumor pathogenesis.

Single cell transcriptomics of mouse kidney transplants reveals a myeloid cell pathway for transplant rejection

open access: yesJCI Insight, 2020
Myeloid cells are increasingly recognized as major players in transplant rejection. Here, we used a murine kidney transplantation model and single cell transcriptomics to dissect the contribution of myeloid cell subsets and their potential signaling ...

Imaging alloreactive T cells provides early warning of organ transplant rejection

open access: yesJCI Insight, 2021
Diagnosis of organ transplant rejection relies upon biopsy approaches to confirm alloreactive T cell infiltration in the graft. Immune molecular monitoring is under investigation to screen for rejection, though these techniques have suffered from low ...

Hilliard Seigler, M.D. and the origins of kidney transplantation and immunology at Duke

open access: yesFrontiers in Transplantation, 2023
The contributions of Dr. Hilliard Seigler to the founding of the Duke kidney transplantation program were considerable in both surgery and immunology. Some of these highlights are summarized based upon interviews with Dr. Seigler by the authors.

A predictive model for kidney transplant graft survival using machine learning [PDF]

open access: yes4th International Conference on Computer Science and Information Technology (COMIT 2020), November 28-29, 2020, Dubai, UAE. ISBN: 978-1-925953-30-5. Volume 10, Number 16, 2020
Kidney transplantation is the best treatment for end-stage renal failure patients. The predominant method used for kidney quality assessment is the Cox regression-based, kidney donor risk index. A machine learning method may provide improved prediction of transplant outcomes and help decision-making. A popular tree-based machine learning method, random

The druggable transcription factor Fli-1 regulates T cell immunity and tolerance in graft-versus-host disease

open access: yesThe Journal of Clinical Investigation, 2022
Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), manifesting as either acute (aGVHD) or chronic (cGVHD), presents significant life-threatening complications following allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation. Here, we investigated Friend virus leukemia integration
