Role of Hyperglycemia in Isogeneic Islet Transplantation: An Experimental Animal Study [PDF]
Study the role of hyperglycemia-induced beta cell loss on grafted islet destruction.Male inbred rats were made diabetic by streptozotocin administration and used as islet donors and/or isograft recipients to probe directly the role of hyperglycemia as an important determinant of transplanted islet fate, following exclusion of immune-related causes of ...

THE INFLUENCE OF THE RECIPIENT UPON RENAL FUNCTION AFTER ISOGENEIC KIDNEY TRANSPLANTATION IN THE RAT
Little attention has been paid to the changes in renal function that occur after kidney transplantation when donor and recipient differ markedly in size. We studied this phenomenon after isogeneic kidney transplantation in rats of varying body weight (BW).

High-dose atorvastatin reduces oxidative stress of ischemia/reperfusion injury after isogeneic kidney transplantation in rats: in vivo, preclinical, case–control, open-label study [PDF]
Background Renal ischemia/reperfusion injury is an unavoidable event in transplantation in which free radical-mediated injury determines release of pro-inflammatory cytokines and activation of innate immunity.

The present study investigated the effects of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) in transplantation-associated arteriosclerosis by observing their expression in transplanted aortas in rats. Allogenic and isogenic abdominal aortic transplantations were performed and grafts were removed from the recipients

The role of HIF-1α-VEGF pathway in bronchiolitis obliterans after lung transplantation
Background Graft function may be affected if the organ is exposed to hypoxia. We hypothesized that bronchiolitis obliterans (BO) after lung transplantation is associated with hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α). This study compares the expression of HIF-

Nanotherapeutics in transplantation: How do we get to clinical implementation? [PDF]
Patients undergoing organ transplantation transition from one life‐altering issue (organ dysfunction) to a lifelong commitment—immunosuppression. Regimens of immunosuppressive agents (ISAs) come with significant side effects and comorbidities. Recently, the use of nanoparticles (NPs) as a solution to the problems associated with the long‐term and ...

Transplanting old organs promotes senescence in young recipients. [PDF]
In clinical organ transplantation, donor and recipient age may differ substantially. Old donor organs accumulate senescent cells that have the capacity to induce senescence in naïve cells.
