Requirement for natural killer T (NKT) cells in the induction of allograft tolerance.
In this study, we investigated the role of Valpha14 natural killer T (NKT) cells in transplant immunity. The ability to reject allografts was not significantly different between wild-type (WT) and Valpha14 NKT cell-deficient mice. However, in models in which tolerance was induced against cardiac allografts by blockade of lymphocyte function-associated antigen-1/intercellular adhesion molecule-1...
متن کاملRelationship between chimerism and tolerance in a kidney transplantation model.
The persistence of donor leukocytes in recipients of organ allografts has been associated with long-term graft acceptance. However, it remains unclear whether this peripheral donor cell microchimerism plays an active role in graft acceptance or is simply a consequence of the maintenance of sufficient immunosuppression to avoid rejection. A model of kidney transplantation between swine leukocyte...
متن کاملHeterologous Immunity Triggered by a Single, Latent Virus in Mus musculus: Combined Costimulation- and Adhesion- Blockade Decrease Rejection
The mechanisms underlying latent-virus-mediated heterologous immunity, and subsequent transplant rejection, especially in the setting of T cell costimulation blockade, remain undetermined. To address this, we have utilized MHV68 to develop a rodent model of latent virus-induced heterologous alloimmunity. MHV68 infection was correlated with multimodal immune deviation, which included increased s...
متن کاملAn age-specific CD8+ T cell pathway that impairs the effectiveness of strategies to prolong allograft survival.
Age-related decline in immunity can impair cell-mediated responses during an infection, malignancy, and acute allograft rejection. Although much research has been allocated to understand the immune responses that impact the former two conditions, the cellular mechanisms by which aging impacts the immune acceptance of organ allografts are not completely clear. In this study, we examined how reci...
متن کاملDonor deficiency of decay-accelerating factor accelerates murine T cell-mediated cardiac allograft rejection.
Decay-accelerating factor (DAF) is a cell surface regulator that accelerates the dissociation of C3/C5 convertases and thereby prevents the amplification of complement activation on self cells. In the context of transplantation, DAF has been thought to primarily regulate antibody-mediated allograft injury, which is in part serum complement-dependent. Based on our previously delineated link betw...
