human leukocyte antigen alleles and cytomegalovirus infection after renal transplantation
results of all participants, 104 patients (52%) were diagnosed with cmv infection. there was no significant difference between the two groups, with and without cmv infection, in terms of patient’s characteristics. the cmv infection, in patients receiving a transplanted organ from deceased donor, was significantly more prevalent than in those receiving kidney transplant from living donor (63% vs...
متن کاملHuman leukocyte antigen-G expression after kidney transplantation is associated with a reduced incidence of rejection.
UNLABELLED HLA-G is a non-classic Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA-G) Class I of low polymorphism and restricted tissue distribution that displays tolerogenic functions. In heart transplantation and in combined liver/renal allograft transplantation, the expression of HLA-G has been associated with a lower incidence of acute graft rejection episodes and absence of chronic dysfunction. Since the expr...
متن کاملAnemia as very late-onset cytomegalovirus disease after kidney transplantation.
Very late-onset cytomegalovirus (CMV) disease after solid organ transplantation is not associated with classic risk factors; therefore, it does not follow a pattern of predictable appearance. A high index of suspicion is necessary to make an accurate diagnosis. Anemia has multiple etiologies among kidney transplanted recipients, and CMV could be one of them. We report the case of a kidney recip...
متن کاملEffects of donor/recipient human leukocyte antigen mismatch on human cytomegalovirus replication following liver transplantation
BACKGROUND Natural immunity against cytomegalovirus (CMV) can control virus replication after solid organ transplantation; however, it is not known which components of the adaptive immune system mediate this protection. We investigated whether this protection requires human leukocyte antigen (HLA) matching between donor and recipient by exploiting the fact that, unlike transplantation of other ...
متن کاملSpecific "intra-allele" and "intra-broad antigen" human leukocyte antigen alloantibodies in kidney graft transplantation.
Human leukocyte antigen (HLA) antibodies are epitope specific and not antigen specific. This work presents a case of intra-allele (IA) sensitization. A 40-year-old-man underwent transplantion with identical "broad" DR. He was apparently not sensitized to HLA antigens by complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC), with one previous transplantation 15 years previously. In post-transplantation monito...
