Immunomodulatory functions of low-molecular weight hyaluronate in an acute rat renal allograft rejection model.
Low molecular weight hyaluronate (LMW-HA) blocks interactions between T lymphocyte CD44 and hyaluronate (HA), a heteropolysaccharide that is expressed on the surface of endothelial cells and ubiquitously in the extracellular matrix. This study was undertaken to assess the ability of LMW-HA to modify the course of experimental acute renal allograft rejection. Lewis (LEW) rats were bilaterally ne...
متن کاملGene transfer of cytoprotective and immunomodulatory molecules for prevention of cardiac allograft rejection.
Current treatments of heart transplantation are limited by incomplete effectiveness, significant toxicity, and failure to prevent chronic rejection. Genetic manipulation of the donor heart at the time of removal offers the unique opportunity to produce a therapeutic molecule within the graft itself, while minimizing systemic effects. Cytoprotective approaches including gene transfer of heme oxy...
متن کاملSuppression of Allograft Rejection
Suppressor T cells (Ts) 1 have been described in many allogeneic systems and may play a role in preventing allograft rejection in tolerized (1-5), antigenpretreated (6-9), passively enhanced (10, 11), or cyclosporin A-treated (12, 13) recipients with long-term surviving transplants. The interactions between the Ts and their target cells are largely undefined. If Ts cells were specific for the a...
متن کاملAntitumor activity of nivolumab on hemodialysis after renal allograft rejection
BACKGROUND Nivolumab (Opdivo™) is a novel IgG4 subclass programmed death-1 (PD-1) inhibiting antibody that has demonstrated breakthrough-designation anti-tumor activity. To date, clinical trials of nivolumab and other checkpoint inhibitors have generally excluded patients with solid organ transplantation and patients with concurrent immunosuppression. However, organ transplant recipients are at...
متن کاملCorneal allograft rejection.
The cornea is avascular, enjoys relative immune privilege, and immunosuppressive treatment can be directly applied: yet data from all available reports indicate that allogeneic rejection is the commonest cause of corneal graft failure. In Australia, 5 year actuarial corneal graft survival is 72%: irreversible rejection accounts for at least 33% of all graft failures.' Graft survival is much sho...
