Presentations by Binnaz Handan Ozdemir

• Tue-15 from 19:30 - 20:15 in room Channel 9
  Oral Abstracts Session — Heart and Lung Abstract Session
  Comparison of pure antibody-mediated rejection with mixed cellular and antibody-mediated rejection in regards to the pathological features, development of cardiac allograft vasculopathy (CAV) and cardiovascular mortality (CVM) in heart transplant patients
• Wed-16 from 10:30 - 11:15 in room Channel 6
  Oral Abstracts Session — Kidney Transplantation: Desensitization and other complications
  Rapamycin prevents interstitial fibrosis through decreasing peritubular capillary (PTC) VEGF expression and angiogenesis while inducing glomerular sclerosis and proteinuria through decreasing glomerular VEGF expression
• Wed-16 from in room E-Poster Hall
  Poster Session — Basic and Translational Sciences
  Increased level of serum cholesterol and apoptosis together induces the development of liver fibrosis and early allograft loss
• Wed-16 from in room E-Poster Hall
  Poster Session — Kidney
  Hypercholesterolemia (HC) increases the risk of acute rejection (AR) and leads to chronic rejection (CR) through decreasing endothelial cell surface antigens and increasing both epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EndoMT)
• Wed-16 from in room E-Poster Hall
  Poster Session — Kidney
  Glomerular deposits of Von Willebrand factor (vWF) and loss of endothelial cell surface antigens on peritubular capillaries (PTCs) showed a strong association with worse graft outcome in recipients with antibody-mediated rejection (ABMR)
• Wed-16 from in room E-Poster Hall
  Poster Session — Kidney
  Comparison of rapamycin with cyclosporin, and tacrolimus in regards to the development of epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of tubular cells and endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EndoMT) of peritubular capillaries (PTCs)
• Wed-16 from in room E-Poster Hall
  Poster Session — Liver
  Multifactorial effect of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) on the microscopic regeneration of liver allograft in recipients who underwent transplantation from living donors
• Wed-16 from in room E-Poster Hall
  Poster Session — Liver
  Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) prevents the apoptotic and anti-angiogenic effect of hypercholesterolemia on hepatocytes in liver allografts
