Chemokines and transplant immunobiology.
The importance of showing up at the right place at the right time is instilled in leukocytes, just as it is in each one of us, by our parents. The fact that leukocyte infiltration of a newly established allograft typically presages the development of acute rejection is the downside of having an exquisitely tuned and finely balanced immune system. Chemokines binding to their receptors on leukocy...
متن کاملChemokines and transplant vasculopathy.
Transplant vasculopathy (TV) remains the leading cause of late death among heart transplant recipients. Transplant vasculopathy is characterized by progressive neointimal proliferation, leading to ischemic failure of the allograft. Multiple experimental and clinical studies have shown that injury to the graft at various stages of transplantation can be a risk factor for development of transplan...
متن کاملDendritic cell immunobiology in relation to liver transplant outcome.
The unique immunologic environment of the liver, together with its anatomic location downstream of the gut, influences the maturation and function of its interstitial dendritic cell (DC) populations. These well-equipped, antigen-presenting cells play critical roles in regulation of innate and adaptive immunity. New information is emerging about the molecular regulation of liver DC maturation an...
متن کاملThe role of chemokines in transplant graft arterial disease.
Despite the development of effective immunosuppressive therapy, transplant graft arterial disease (GAD) remains the major limitation to long-term graft survival. Multiple immune and nonimmune risk factors contribute to this vasculopathic intimal hyperplastic process. Thus, initial interplay between host inflammatory cells and donor endothelial cells triggers alloimmune responses, whereas alloan...
متن کاملAllograft Vasculopathy Versus Atherosclerosis Antibody and Complement in Transplant Vasculopathy Cytokines, Interferon- , and Transplant Vasculopathy Chemokines and Transplant Vasculopathy Stem Cells and Transplant Vasculopathy
Advances in immunosuppression have decreased the incidence of acute rejection, but the development of vasculopathy in the coronary arteries of transplants continues to limit the survival of cardiac allografts. Transplant vasculopathy has also been referred to as accelerated graft arteriosclerosis because it has features of arteriosclerosis, but it is limited to the graft and develops over a per...
