Hyperacute/acute/chronic rejection describe the speed of rejection in organs such as the kidney.... Acute rejection occurs within two weeks of grafting, due to prior sensitization of the recipient to histocompatibility antigens. Chronic rejection occurs later due to the development of sensitivity to graft antigens. This sometimes occurs after the cessation of immunosuppression necessitated by infection. 1, record 2, English, - chronic%20rejection

We are seeking someone with experience in surgery, microsurgery and immunology to join a team of investigators studying transplant immunology. This person will participate in two areas of cardiac transplant research : Accelerated graft arteriosclerosis in allografts and hyperacute rejection of xenografts. The mechanisms of accelerated arteriosclerosis are being investigated by a multidisciplinary research program using cardiac and carotid artery transplants in both mice and rats. 1, record 3, English, - accelerated%20graft%20arteriosclerosis

Le rejet chronique, d'étiologie multiple mais avant tout immunologique, est responsable d'une altération progressive et irréversible de la fonction du greffon. Histologiquement, il réalise une vasculopathie chronique spécifique de l'organe greffé, essentiellement fibrosante et proliférante. Les lésions d'artériosclérose accélérée du greffon diffèrent de celles de l'athérome classique, car elles sont diffuses et circonférentielles, avec hyperplasie concentrique de l'intima, respectant la limitante élastique interne et d'évolution rapide en quelques mois. 1, record 3, French, - art%C3%A9rioscl%C3%A9rose%20acc%C3%A9l%C3%A9r%C3%A9e%20du%20greffon

Hyperacute/acute/chronic rejection describe the speed of rejection in organs such as the kidney. Hyperacute reactions occur within minutes of implantation and are caused by preformed recipient antibody to the graft. Acute rejection occurs within two weeks of grafting, due to prior sensitization of the recipient to histocompatibility antigens. Chronic rejection occurs later due to the development of sensitivity to graft antigens. This sometimes occurs after the cessation of immuno-suppression necessitated by infection. 1, record 5, English, - hyperacute%20rejection

Le rôle des anticorps dans le rejet est évident lorsque le receveur a été présensibilisé (par une grossesse, une transfusion sanguine ou une transplantation précédente) aux antigènes HLA présents sur le greffon. La greffe dans ces conditions conduit presque toujours à un rejet suraigu, entraînant la destruction du greffon en quelques heures ou même quelques minutes après sa revascularisation. 2, record 5, French, - rejet%20suraigu
