Methods and materials for modulation of the immunosuppressive activity and toxicity of monoclonal antibodies

The binding specificity of the murine OKT3 has been transferred into a human antibody framework in order to reduce its immunogenicity. “Humanized” anti-CD3 mAbs, such as gOKT3-5 and gOKT3-7, have been shown to retain, in vitro, all the properties of native OKT3, including T cell activation which has been correlated, in vivo, with the severe side-effects observed in transplant recipients after the first administration of the mAb. Disclosed are modified versions of humanized anti-CD3 mAbs that do not have the property of T cell activation. Further dislosed are methods of using such mAbs.

Methods for identifying a preferred liver transplant donor

InactiveUS6844156B2BiocideSugar derivativesLiver transplant recipientGenotype
The present invention provides a method of identifying a preferred liver transplant donor. The method includes the step of determining in an individual the presence or absence of a preferred genotype at a polymorphic site, where the preferred genotype is associated with altered activity of a tumor necrosis factor, and wherein the presence of the preferred genotype indicates that the individual is a preferred liver transplant donor. A preferred genotype can be associated with lower activity of a tumor necrosis factor such as TNF-α and can be, for example, TNF308.1. The methods of the invention are useful for identifying a preferred donor liver for transplant into a HCV infected patient. The invention additionally provides a method for selecting a preferred liver for transplantation. The invention further provides a method for limiting the recurrence of HCV infection in a liver transplant recipient.

Use of immunotoxins to induce immune tolerance to pancreatic islet transplantation

The invention provides a method of treating diabetes in a subject, comprising administering to the diabetic subject an immunotoxin, thereby reducing the subject's T-cell population, and administering to the subject pancreatic islet cells from a donor. The immune tolerance inducing treatment regimen, used optionally with adjunct immunosuppressive agents, prevents pancreatic islet cell rejection while maintaining long term islet cell function following xenogeneic and allogeneic pancreatic islet cell transplantation. Thus, the methods of the present invention provide a means for treating diabetes, wherein the need for exogenous insulin or immunosuppressive agents is decreased or eliminated. Also provided is a method of inhibiting a rejection response of a transplant recipient, comprising administering an immunotoxin during the peritransplant period, thereby transiently reducing the number of T-cell lymphocytes and promoting long-term survival of the transplant.

Methods of treating stroke using stem cell-like menstrual blood cells

A cell type that is a complete match of the transplant recipient appears as an optimal scenario to open treatment options to a large patient population with minimal complications. The use of autologous bone marrow or umbilical cord blood has been proposed as a good source of stem cells for cell therapy. Menstrual blood is found to be another important source of stem cells. Assays of cultured menstrual blood reveal that they express embryonic like-stem cell phenotypic markers and neuronal phenotypic markers under appropriate conditioned media. Oxygen glucose deprivation stroke models show that OGD-exposed primary rat neurons, co-cultured with menstrual blood-derived stem cells or exposed to the media from cultured menstrual blood, exhibited significantly reduced cell death. Transplantation of menstrual blood-derived stem cells, either intracerebrally or intravenously, after experimentally induced ischemic stroke in adult rats also significantly reduced behavioral and histological impairments compared to vehicle-infused rats.

Method of removing cell

In the transplant of a living organism tissue, such as a heart valve, taken from an animal, etc. into a human body, a cell removing solution for removing original cells from the living organism tissue is provided with flow approximately equal to the bloodstream of transplant recipient living body, and the living organism tissue is placed in the flow so as to effect immersion of the living organism tissue in the cell removing solution. In the immersion, it is preferred that the living organism tissue placed in the cell removing solution, while being rotated, be irradiated with microwave. As a result, original cells can be removed from the living organism tissue uniformly and reliably, so that the biocompatibility of living organism tissue after transplant can be enhanced.
