ABO Incompatible Liver Transplantation in Children: A 20 Year Experience from C...
Markiewicz-Kijewska, Małgorzata; Kaliciński, Piotr; Torres Canizales, Juan; Di Giorgio, Angelo; Baumann, Ulrich; Jorns, Carl; Baker, AlastairAn increasing number of AB0-incompatible (AB0i) liver transplantations (LT) are being undertaken internationally in recent years due to organ shortages and the need for urgent transplantation. The aim of our study was establish the value of ABOi LT from available retrospective results of AB0i pediatric liver transplantations performed in European reference centers now belonging to the TransplantChild, European ...
Dissection of the pre-germinal center B-cell maturation pathway in common varia...
del Pino-Molina, Lucía; López-Granados, Eduardo; Lecrevisse, Quentin; Torres Canizales, Juan; Pérez-Andrés, Martín; Blanco, Elena; Wentink, MarjoleinIntroduction: Common Variable Immunodeficiency (CVID) is characterized by defective antibody production and hypogammaglobulinemia. Flow cytometry immunophenotyping of blood lymphocytes has become of great relevance for the diagnosis and classification of CVID, due to an impaired differentiation of mature post-germinal-center (GC) class-switched memory B-cells (MBC) and severely decreased plasmablast/plasma cell...
Pediatric transplantation in Europe during the COVID‐19 pandemic: Early impact ...
Doná, Daniele; Torres Canizales, Juan; Benetti, Elisa; Cananzi, Mara; De Corti, Federica; Calore, Elisabetta; Hierro, Loreto; Ramos Boluda, EstherThe current pandemic SARS-CoV-2 has required an unusual allocation of resources that can negatively impact chronically ill patients and high-complexity procedures. Across the European Reference Network on Pediatric Transplantation (ERN TransplantChild), we conducted a survey to investigate the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on pediatric transplant activity and healthcare practices in both solid organ transplan...
Age-associated distribution of normal B-cell and plasma cell subsets in periphe...
Blanco, Elena; Pérez-Andrés, Martín; Arriba-Méndez, Sonia; Contreras-Sanfeliciano, Teresa; Criado, Ignacio; Pelak, Ondrej; Serra-Caetano, AnaBackground: Humoral immunocompetence develops stepwise throughout life and contributes to individual susceptibility to infection, immunodeficiency, autoimmunity, and neoplasia. Immunoglobulin heavy chain (IgH) isotype serum levels can partly explain such age-related differences, but their relationship with the IgH isotype distribution within memory B-cell (MBC) and plasma cell (PCs) compartments remains to be i...
