Detection of allograft endothelial cells of recipient origin following ABO-compatible, nonidentical cardiac transplantation.

abstract：:The interpretation of cellular infiltrate from renal transplant recipients with borderline (BL) changes is still a challenging problem. To analyze the immune phenotype of such infiltrate, we quantified the mRNA expression of Foxp3 and interleukinL-10 and granzyme B (GB) in 15 kidney biopsies with BL changes. Controls ...

abstract：BACKGROUND:Monocarboxylate transporter (MCT)-1, a member of a family of molecules, transports monocarboxylates such as lactate. Inhibiting MCT-1 leads to long-term graft survival in rodent heart transplantation and induces tolerance. We evaluated an MCT-1 inhibitor, AS2495674, in a rat heart transplant model and analyz...
