Xenotransplantation of pig heart
Hello everyone. I’m sure we have all read about the recent pig kidneys transplanted into humans successfully. Well, it appears it’s been done again but this time it looks like a heart transplant was done. It’s too early to tell, but this case here seems to be more beneficial towards making it a reality

CD19 CAR-T cell therapy for B-ALL achieved remarkable efficacy with a complete remission of 70–90%
This looks interesting but way over my knowledge base. Perhaps some of you super brains can figure this out. In recent years, the increasing advancements and applications of cellular immunotherapy have enabled the use of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy, and it has emerged as an efficacious

A Measure of Health with SLE Lupus
It affected my left
lung
(pulmonary fibrosis--doctors were preparing me for a
lung
transplant
but refused it). At this time I was being treated with cyclosporine in preparation for the transplant. (Did not want to live with that quality of life).

New, targeted therapy inhibits specific immune cells associated with lupus nephritis
'Intervention targets T cells rather than multiple immune cell types," Prof. Chaim Putterman says. Lupus (systemic lupus erythematosus), an autoimmune disease in which the body recognizes and attacks its own tissues, can affect many organs, including the kidneys. About fifty percent of patients diagnosed

Did any kidney transplant people have high antibodies
Hello I’m on the transplant list I was hoping to get a transplant before dialysis but don’t know if it will happen . I had one offer that didn’t work out I found out then I am going to be hard to match cause I have high antibodies. I wasn’t even aware there was such a thing. How long did you wait before

Shaking
I received a kidney transplant in 2008. For the last few months I have been shaking a lot especially my hands. Taking 4 mg. of Prograf. Doctor increased it because level was low on blood test. Has anyone experienced this kind of shaking? Thanks

Had my third kidney transplant
Hello everyone:) Happy Holidays! 2 weeks ago I received the phone call that they had a kidney for me ..this was very unexpected because I had been told throughout the whole pre transplant process that I would have a living donor through the paired exchange program. My husband would donate to someone
