Who cares?: negative peer experiences and empathy for rejected others
… and prosocial and aggressive behavior based on rejection experiences, both immediate and chronic. Adolescent participants (N = 101) were randomly accepted or rejected in an online game of catch. Adolescents watched a video of a sex- and race-matched peer being rejected in the same game. …

CD4 T cell allorecognition pathways in acute and chronic allograft rejection
… an inevitable decline in function attributed to chronic rejection. It is evident that the alloimmune response remains incompletely characterised. Crucially, despite description several decades ago, the precise contribution that the direct (recognition of intact allogeneic MHC) and indirect …

The susceptibility of baboons to the novel immunosuppressant, FTY720
… i.e. xenotransplants, results in hyperacute rejection. The development of immunosuppressive agents such as Cyc1osporine A and Tacrolimus have significantly improved the survival of organ transplants. However, although there is a good 1-5 year survival, the recurrent problem of chronic …

The role of ischaemia-reperfusion injury and mitochondrial dysfunction in organ transplantation
… longer-term outcomes by increasing the rate of chronic organ rejection. Mitochondria are recognised as being integral to IR injury generating a burst of reactive oxygen species that initiates downstream tissue damage. There is emerging evidence that this process is driven by a specific metabolic …

Regulatory mechanisms in transplantation tolerance: the induction of tolerance by adoptive transfer in MHC-inbred miniature swine
… have remained the same due to unchanged rate of chronic rejection. Even with acceptance of renal allografts, patients require lifelong use of immunosuppressants. The induction of transplantation tolerance may allow for patients to receive transplants without having to deal with the side effects …

Outcomes of renal transplantation in patients with lupus nephritis: a single centre study in Cape Town
… patient (6.7%) who developed class V LN. Graft rejection was diagnosed in 10/15 cases (66.7%) with types of rejection noted to be acute cellular rejection in 6/15 (40%), antibody mediated rejection 1/15 (6.7%) and chronic rejection in 3/15 (20%). ESRD occurred in 3 patients (20%) with causes …

Untersuchung costimulatorischer Signalwege bei chronischer Transplantatabstoßung und Langzeit-Organakzeptanz nach allogener Nierentransplantation an einem experimentellen Hirntod-Spender-Transplantationsmodell
Zusammenfassend zeigen die Untersuchungsergebnisse, dass eine Kombination aus niedrig dosiertem Sirolimus und CsA einen synergistischen immunsuppressiven Effekt nach Nierentransplantation aufweisen. rPSGL-Ig wirkt additiv und reduziert frühe unspezifische oder auch Alloantigen-unabhängige …

Zeitliche Analyse der histomorphologischen und durchflußzytometrischen Charakteristika der chronischen Abstoßung nach experimenteller Dünndarm-Transplantation
Die Monate nach Transplantation auftretende Abstoßung ist ein Haupthindernis für eine erfogreiche Transplantat-Langzeitfunktion des Dünndarms. Ursache ist das hohe Immunitätspotential dieses Organes. Ziel dieser Arbeit war es, sowohl die histomorphologischen Zeichen der chronischen Abstoßung, als …
