Lymphocyte subpopulations during cytomegalovirus disease in renal transplant recipients.
We have determined the number of circulating T, B and natural killer cells in renal transplant recipients in order to detect changes during cytomegalovirus (CMV) infections. Serial blood samples were taken from 61 patients on standard triple immunosuppression therapy (cyclosporin A, azathioprine and prednisone). Using two-color flow cytometry analysis, the absolute number of CD3+, CD4+, CD8+, C...
متن کاملPREGNANCY IN RENAL TRANSPLANT RECIPIENTS
ABSTRACT Background: Correction of the uremic state by a functioning allograft often restores fertility in women of reproductive age. The rate of fertility significantly differs between industrial countries, developing and middle east countries. On the other hand the results of pregnancy in Kidney Transplantation (KTP) patients are significantly better than hemodialysis patients, and pregnancy...
متن کاملLymphocyte subsets in renal transplant recipients during growth hormone therapy.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of growth hormone treatment on growth, levels of insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) and lymphocyte subsets in immunosuppressed renal allograft recipients. METHODS 18 children (aged 8.0-16.6 years) received growth hormone 1 IU/Kg/week daily for two years. Height, IGF-I levels and in 11/18 patients, lymphocyte subsets were evaluated serially. RESULTS Standar...
متن کاملHoloendemic cytomegalovirus infection in renal transplant recipients.
A prospective study of epidemiology and pathogenesis of cytomegalovirus (CMV) infections in transplant recipients, previously reported for 30 patients (Clin. Res. XXII, 441A, 1974), has been extended to include 35 patients who have been studied clinically and virologically for 5 to 19 months after renal transplantation (RT) (except three patients who died within three months after RT). Active C...
متن کاملCytomegalovirus infection in renal transplant recipients.
We have retrospectively analyzed the incidence of cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection in 250 consecutive renal allograft transplants performed in 244 recipients. The mean follow-up was 35.1+/-25.4 months. Immunosuppression was cyclosporine- or tacrolimus-based triple therapy. CMV infection prophylaxis with ganciclovir for 3 months post transplant was prescribed in CMV-seronegative recipients of all...
