THE ROLE OF T-L YMPHOCYTE SUBPOPULATION IN RENAL ALLOGRAFT REJECTION
Twenty-two recipients of HLA-nonidentical living related and nonrelated renal allografts were studied for alterations in the relative percentage of OKT4-positive peripheral blood T-cells after transplantation. Characteristic shifts in the ratio of T-helper to T -suppressor/cytotoxic cells (TH/TS-C), but not absolute cell numbers, were demonstrated to correspond with the status of the allog...
متن کاملThe Role of Anti-CCD Antibodies in Grape Allergy Diagnosis
Background: Allergens are mostly composed of glycoprotein structures. It is believed that glycan-specific antibodies may lead to false-positive reactions in immunoassays. In this study we investigated the glycosylation state of grape allergens as well as the presence of antibodies to cross-reactive carbohydrate determinants (anti-CCDs) in sera from grape-sensitive individuals. Methods: Grape...
متن کاملAnti-HLA Antibodies and Kidney Allograft Outcomes in Recipients with Donor Bone Marrow Cell Infusion
Background: Anti-HLA-antibodies are known to affect the allograft survival in transplant recipient patients. Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between anti-HLA antibodies and kidney allograft outcomes, particularly in recipients with concur-rent donor bone marrow cell infusion (DBMI). Methods: Between June 2006 and May 2007, forty living unrelated donor kidney tra...
متن کاملRole of antibodies to self-antigens in chronic allograft rejection: potential mechanism and therapeutic implications.
Significant progress has been made in preventing acute allograft rejection following solid organ transplantation resulting in improved allograft survival. However, long term function still remains disappointing primarily due to chronic allograft rejection. Alloimmune responses primarily defined by the development of antibodies (Abs) to donor mismatched major histocompatibility antigens during t...
متن کاملThe role of antibodies to mutated citrulinated vimentin (anti-MCV) in juvenile idiopathic arthritis patients
Results Positive anti-MCV Ab were detected in only 3/58 (5,2%) JIA patients, and were significantly elevated in two RF positive polyartritis patients, and slightly elevated in 1/19 (5,3%) patients with enthesitis-related arthritis (ErA). Among all patients, anti-CCP Ab were positive only in one anti-MCV positive polyarticular JIA patient. Anti-MCV and RF positivity correlated statistically (r =...
