Background: KEPs (kidney exchange programs) facilitate living donor kidney transplantations (LDKT) for patients with incompatible donors, who are typically higher risk than non-KEP patients because of higher sensitization and longer dialysis vintage. We conducted a comparative analysis of graft outcomes and risk factors for both KEP and non-KEP living donor kidney transplants.
Methods: All LDKTs performed in the Netherlands between 2004-2021 were included.

Obesity is associated with several comorbidities that cause high mortality rates worldwide. Thus, the study of adipose tissue (AT) has become a target of high interest because of its crucial contribution to many metabolic diseases and metabolizing potential. However, many AT-related physiological, pathophysiological, and toxicological mechanisms in humans are still poorly understood, mainly due to the use of non-human animal models.

New approaches to achieve facile and reversible dihydrogen activation are of importance for synthesis, catalysis, and hydrogen storage. Here we show that low-coordinate magnesium oxide complexes [{(nacnac)Mg}(μ-O)] , with nacnac = HC(RCNDip), Dip = 2,6-PrCH, R = Me (), Et (), Pr (), readily react with dihydrogen under mild conditions to afford mixed hydride-hydroxide complexes [{(nacnac)Mg}(μ-H)(μ-OH)] . Dehydrogenation of complexes is strongly dependent on remote ligand substitution and can be achieved by simple vacuum-degassing of (R = Pr) to regain .

Donor-specific antibodies (DSAs) are essential causes of graft rejection in haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (haplo-HSCT). DSAs are unavoidable for some patients who have no alternative donor. Effective interventions to reduce DSAs are still needed, and the cost of the current therapies is relatively high.

Background/purpose: Bone reconstruction in the maxillofacial region typically relies on autologous bone grafting, which presents challenges, including donor site complications and graft limitations. Recent advances in tissue engineering have identified highly pure and proliferative dedifferentiated fat cells (DFATs) as promising alternatives. Herein, we explored the capacity for osteoblast differentiation and the osteoinductive characteristics of extracellular vesicles derived from DFATs (DFAT-EVs).
