Two patients with primary hepatic malignancy were treated by hepatectomy and orthotopic liver transplantation. In both cases the donor liver was infused with cold solutions and kept chilled without continuous perfusion. There was immediate satisfactory hepatic function in both transplants.The first patient died after 11 weeks from overwhelming bacterial and fungal infections probably secondary to hepatic infarction due to thrombosis of the recipient hepatic artery. The thrombus occurred at the site of the arterial clamp. In an attempt to control the growth before transplantation, the patient had been treated with large doses of chlorambucil, which resulted in extreme marrow depression and septicaemia.The second patient developed cholestatic jaundice during the second and third weeks after transplantation, with histological evidence of mild rejection, which was controlled by increasing the dose of immunosuppressive agents. He is now well, having returned to work six weeks after the operation.Though the first patient showed no evidence of rejection, it is concluded that patients receiving liver allografts should receive immunosuppressive therapy.  相似文献

Background

Cytokines have been implicated in the acute rejection of solid organ transplantation. Many studies have investigated the association between recipient or donor IL-4 polymorphism and acute rejection, with different studies reporting inconclusive results.

Methods

We searched PUBMED and EMBASE until June 2012 to identify eligible studies investigating the association between IL-4 polymorphism with acute rejection after solid organ transplantation. Statistical analysis was performed using STATA10.0.

Results

A total of 12 studies were included. Pooled ORs suggested 1) no significant association was detected between recipient or donor IL-4 − 590C/T polymorphism and acute rejection of solid allograft; 2) no significant association was detected between recipient IL-4 − 33C/T polymorphism and acute rejection of solid allograft; 3) when stratified by transplantation type, IL-4 − 590C/T polymorphism was associated with acute rejection of liver transplantation (T/T + C/T vs. C/C: OR = 0.36, 95%CI = 0.14–0.90); 4) significantly decreased risk of acute rejection was detected in recipient IL-4 − 590*T-negative/donor T-positive genotype pairs than all other recipient–donor IL-4 − 590T/C pairs (OR = 0.14, 95%CI = 0.03–0.66).

Conclusions

Our meta-analysis suggested that recipient IL-4 − 590C/T polymorphism was associated with acute rejection of liver transplantation, but nor renal or heart transplantation. It was also suggested that combined recipient IL-4 − 590*T-negative/donor T-positive genotype may suffer decreased risk of acute rejection of solid allograft. Further well-designed studies with larger sample size were required to verify our findings, with focus on the association of IL-4 polymorphism with acute rejection in patients with liver transplantation and studies investigating combined recipient–donor genotype.  相似文献

The insufficiency of liver functions remains one of the major causes of death. The liver transplantation is the most effective method for treating severe liver diseases. The shortage of donor organs and high risk of graft rejection are the main problems for liver transplantation. Stem cells and isolated hepatocytes are the alternative means for repopulating liver after various injuries instead of liver transplantation. This review analyses achievements in therapy of liver insufficiency by means of stem cells in model experiments on animals as well as in clinical practice and also perspectives of employment of stem cells for treatment of liver insufficiency.  相似文献

Increasingly, bone marrow transplant (BMT) is the treatment of choice for certain hematologic diseases. BMT is, however, a risky procedure with many potentially serious complications. Some complications are the result of the conditioning regimen, a stage of transplantation that includes large doses of chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy. Conditioning-induced neutropenia and thrombocytopenia often result in infection, bleeding, and mucositis. Veno-occlusive disease (VOD), a chemotherapy-induced hepatotoxicity, can cause a mild to severe form of liver disease. Other complications are directly attributable to the engrafted new marrow. Graft-versus-host disease, a rejection process initiated by immunocompetent donor T lymphocytes, is a complication frequently observed in allogeneic BMT. Approximately 14-28 days after the day of transplant, signs of engraftment begin to appear. When specific discharge criteria are met, the BMT patient is discharged from the hospital. Specific follow-up medical care is ongoing for about one year after BMT.  相似文献

The C3 component of complement has different roles in kidney disease and its local production in donor kidney may affect allograft function and rejection after organ transplantation. A single base substitution in c3 gene (rs2230199), defines two common allelic variants with different mobility on gel electrophoresis: S (Slow) and F (Fast). In order to evaluate the effect of this polymorphism on acute renal allograft rejection, one hundred samples of donor and recipients were collected and genotyping was done by PCR-RFLP method. The allelic frequencies were: C3S=0.791, C3F=0.209. There was no significant association between recipient's genotype and acute rejection (p value<0.05). No correlation between donor genotype and acute rejection was also present. Patients were divided into four groups, according to the recipient and donor genotypes: SS recipients and FS or FF donor, SS recipient and donor, FF or FS recipient and SS donor and FS or FF recipient and donor. There was no significant difference in rate of acute rejection between groups. Although the results didn't find any association between C3 complement polymorphisms and acute allograft rejection, there was no acute rejection in FS or FF donors and SS recipient group.  相似文献

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Diagnosis of acute rejection is a complex and persistent problem in liver transplantation. Focused on the use of proprietary impedance technology a porcine liver model was designed to provide immediate information for differentiation of normal and acute rejecting tissue by an implantable telemetric device. METHODS: Electrical impedance was analyzed by electrodes implanted in vitro and in vivo in the liver of pigs, where impedance is derived from measurements of voltage transients produced in response to programmed current pulses. Consequent electric recordings in porcine livers after transplantation and after mere laparotomy were evaluated in relation to biochemical parameters and histological results of liver biopsies. RESULTS: Acute rejection was correctly predicted in all cases and correctly excluded in the remaining 32 biopsy related impedance recordings (P<0.004). Impedance measurements not only correlated with the diagnosis from liver biopsy specimen (r=0.84, P<0.0001) but also exemplified the severity of histological acute rejection. CONCLUSION: Impedance analysis reveals evident physiologic relation of acute liver graft rejection and electrical organ properties. Electrodes implanted in transplanted porcine livers allow running less invasive monitoring and thus early detection of rejection. The technology may have broad value in providing an immediate diagnosis of acute rejection, reducing unnecessary patient anxiety and eliminating the significant expenses associated with multiple referrals, expensive sample handling and tissue analysis.  相似文献

Graft arteriosclerois (GA), also called allograft vasculopathy, is a pathologic lesion that develops over months to years in transplanted organs characterized by diffuse, circumferential stenosis of the entire graft vascular tree. The most critical component of GA pathogenesis is the proliferation of smooth muscle-like cells within the intima. When a human coronary artery segment is interposed into the infra-renal aortae of immunodeficient mice, the intimas could be expand in response to adoptively transferred human T cells allogeneic to the artery donor or exogenous human IFN-γ in the absence of human T cells. Interposition of a mouse aorta from one strain into another mouse strain recipient is limited as a model for chronic rejection in humans because the acute cell-mediated rejection response in this mouse model completely eliminates all donor-derived vascular cells from the graft within two-three weeks. We have recently developed two new mouse models to circumvent these problems. The first model involves interposition of a vessel segment from a male mouse into a female recipient of the same inbred strain (C57BL/6J). Graft rejection in this case is directed only against minor histocompatibility antigens encoded by the Y chromosome (present in the male but not the female) and the rejection response that ensues is sufficiently indolent to preserve donor-derived smooth muscle cells for several weeks. The second model involves interposing an artery segment from a wild type C57BL/6J mouse donor into a host mouse of the same strain and gender that lacks the receptor for IFN-γ followed by administration of mouse IFN-γ (delivered via infection of the mouse liver with an adenoviral vector. There is no rejection in this case as both donor and recipient mice are of the same strain and gender but donor smooth muscle cells proliferate in response to the cytokine while host-derived cells, lacking receptor for this cytokine, are unresponsive. By backcrossing additional genetic changes into the vessel donor, both models can be used to assess the effect of specific genes on GA progression. Here, we describe detailed protocols for our mouse GA models.  相似文献

Donor leukocytes play a dual role in rejection and acceptance of transplanted organs. They provide the major stimulus for rejection, and their removal from the transplanted organ prolongs its survival. Paradoxically, administration of donor leukocytes also prolongs allograft survival provided that they are administered 1 wk or more before transplantation. Here we show that administration of donor leukocytes immediately after transplantation induced long-term acceptance of completely MHC-mismatched rat kidney or liver transplants. The majority of long-term recipients of kidney transplants were tolerant of donor-strain skin grafts. Acceptance was associated with early activation of recipient T cells in the spleen, demonstrated by a rapid increase in IL-2 and IFN-gamma at that site followed by an early diffuse infiltrate of activated T cells and apoptosis within the tolerant grafts. In contrast, IL-2 and IFN-gamma mRNA were not increased in the spleens of rejecting animals, and the diffuse infiltrate of activated T cells appeared later but resulted in rapid graft destruction. These results define a mechanism of allograft acceptance induced by donor leukocytes that is associated with activation-induced cell death of recipient T cells. They demonstrate for the first time that posttransplant administration of donor leukocytes leads to organ allograft tolerance across a complete MHC class I plus class II barrier, a finding with direct clinical application.  相似文献

Between May 1968 and 31 December 1976 60 orthotopic liver allografts were transplanted by the Cambridge-King''s College Hospital team. During this period there were changes in the selection of patients and their management. Initially some patients were operated on when they were too ill, often because of a prolonged wait for a donor. There was a high incidence of fatal complications of biliary drainage in patients who survived longer than the first week after operation. Improved results have been due to the development of a simple method of preserving the liver, thereby increasing the pool of potential donors, and by a new technique of biliary drainage, which allows well-vascularised anastomoses without tension, retains the sphincter of Oddi, and leaves access for radiological examination of the biliary tree. Uncontrollable rejection of the liver has occurred in less than 10% of cases. This contrasts strongly with the incidence of rejection among kidney transplants. Six patients have lived for over a year, the longest surviving for more than five years, and 13 patients were still alive at the beginning of 1977.  相似文献

Chemokines activate and recruit specific leukocyte subpopulations. We sought to determine whether neutrophil migration, which can contribute to the development of ischemia-reperfusion injury, correlates with lung allograft rejection. Orthotopic left lung allotransplantation was performed from Brown Norway (donor) to Fisher 344 (recipient) rats. Because the role of activated neutrophils in the development of allograft rejection is believed to be biphasic, we used specific CXC receptor inhibition with antileukinate in 2 dosing regimens. Recipients were allocated into 4 groups; A (early administration) received 2 doses of antileukinate (10.0 mg/kg) intramuscularly 24 h before and immediately after transplantation; B (continuous administration) continuously received antileukinate intraperitoneally (10.0 mg/kg/day) for 7 days after surgery. Groups A or B were compared with individual controls that received PBS alone. The progression of rejection was assessed radiographically. Histologic evaluation of allograft rejection based on pathologic rejection grade, performed on day 7, demonstrated significantly lower histologic rejection in group B compared with the control group (2.1+/-1.0 vs. 3.3+/-0.5; P=0.018), whereas there was no significant difference in group A compared with the control group. There were no significant differences between the aeration scores of groups A or B compared with their control groups. Our data suggest that neutrophils may play a promoting role in the development of allograft rejection, and blockage of neutrophil migration may suppress acute lung allograft rejection.  相似文献

The effect of widely different doses of Trichinella spiralis muscle larvae on time to rejection of intestinal adults and on host survival was assessed in mice of the three rejection phenotypes; strong, intermediate, and weak. Rejection is weak with doses of less than 50 larvae per mouse. At these doses all mice rejected worms at a similar rate and no phenotypic variation was evident among strains. In contrast, rejection time was shortest for all strains and phenotypic variation among strains was evident in the range 50-100 muscle larvae/mouse. Above this dose the time taken to rejection increases monotonically with dose for all mouse strains examined. Despite this, the relative strength of rejection (i.e., phenotype) of a given strain of mouse was not changed at higher doses. Based on an end point of 98% rejection of the infective dose, time to rejection was predictable to +/- 1 day for all mouse strains and doses tested over the range 100-1000 worms administered. The principal reason for the increased time to complete rejection with larger worm doses was a delay in the initiation of intestinal rejection. This delay was evident above a dose of 50-100 larvae per mouse and occurred in all strains. Once begun, rejection was faster and eliminated more worms in unit time at higher doses (400-800 more) than at lower doses of worms. This appeared to be due to a stronger immune response of the host at higher doses. However, the increase in the rate of rejection was still not as great as the increase in the dose. We postulate that the delay in rejection with increased dose is due to a requirement for a "critical mass" of effectors/worm required to cause rejection. As dose increases, more time is required to reach the level at which worm rejection commences. Deaths due to higher doses of worms also occurred in a strain-specific manner and were temporally biphasic. The intestinal phase of infection produced mortality from 1 to 5 days after infection and the strongest rejection phenotype (NFS) was also the most resistant to intestinal deaths. Deaths occurring after Day 5 were due to the parenterally migrating newborn larvae. The weakest rejection phenotype, that of the B10 congenics, was also the least resistant to intestinal deaths. An experimental formula describing 98% worm rejection time with different doses was derived from the data.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)  相似文献

CD4 T cells are both necessary and sufficient to mediate acute cardiac allograft rejection in mice. This process requires "direct" engagement of donor MHC class II molecules. That is, acute rejection by CD4+ T cells requires target MHC class II expression by the donor and not by the host. However, it is unclear whether CD4+ T cell rejection requires MHC class II expression on donor hemopoietic cells, nonhemopoietic cells, or both. To address this issue, bone marrow transplantation in mice was used to generate chimeric heart donors in which MHC class II was expressed either on somatic or on hemopoietic cells. We report that direct recognition of hemopoietic and nonhemopoietic cells are individually rate limiting for CD4+ T cell-mediated rejection in vivo. Importantly, active immunization with MHC class II(+) APCs triggered acute rejection of hearts expressing MHC class II only on the somatic compartment. Thus, donor somatic cells, including endothelial cells, are not sufficient to initiate acute rejection; but they are necessary as targets of direct alloreactive CD4 T cells. Taken together, results support a two-stage model in which donor passenger leukocytes are required to activate the CD4 response while direct interaction with the somatic compartment is necessary for the efferent phase of acute graft rejection.  相似文献

Severe burn patients lack adequate skin donor sites to resurface their burn wounds. Patients with severe burn injuries to areas such as an entire face are presently reconstructed with skin grafts that are inferior to normal facial skin. This study was designed in part to determine whether human skin allografts would survive, repopulate, and persist on patients with immunosuppression and after discontinuation of immunosuppression. Small split-thickness skin grafts were synchronously transplanted at the time of renal transplantation from six renal transplant donors to recipients. All six patients were immunosuppressed with the usual doses of renal transplant immunosuppressants (methylprednisolone, cyclosporine, prednisone, and azathioprine). The skin allografts were biopsied when rejection was suspected and at various intervals. Special histologic studies were performed on skin biopsy specimens. Class II DNA tissue typing was performed on transplanted and autogenous skin biopsy specimens of four patients. Fluorescent in situ hybridization was performed successfully on skin biopsies of four patients' transplanted skin and on two of these four patients' autogenous skin. All six human skin allografts sustained a 100 percent take and long-term clinical survival. DNA tissue typing performed on skin allograft biopsy specimens from patients taking immunosuppressants all revealed donor and recipient cells. DNA tissue typing performed on autogenous skin biopsies from the same patients all revealed only recipient cells. Fluorescent in situ hybridization performed on allograft and autogenous specimens from patients taking immunosuppressants revealed transplanted donor cells with rare recipient cells in the allograft and only recipient cells in the autogenous skin. This study of six patients proves that it is possible for human skin allografts to survive indefinitely on patients taking the usual dosages of immunosuppressants used for renal transplantation. There was minimal repopulation of skin allografts by autogenous keratinocytes and fibroblast while patients were taking immunosuppressants. Immunosuppression was discontinued in two patients after renal transplant rejection after 6 weeks and 5 years. When immunosuppression was discontinued after 5 years in one patient, the skin allograft cells were destroyed and replaced with autogenous cells, but the skin graft did not reject acutely and persisted clinically. It is hypothesized that the acellular portion of the skin allograft was not rejected acutely because of relatively low antigenicity and because it acted as a lattice for autogenous cells to migrate into and replace rejected allograft skin cells. No chimerism was seen in autogenous skin in the skin-renal transplant patients in this study.  相似文献

The precise roles of mast cells in liver allograft rejection and tolerance are still unknown. This study aimed to explore the roles of mast cells in immune regulation and liver regeneration for tolerance induction by using rat models of orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT). Stem cell factor (SCF) and its receptor c-Kit, which are critical to the migration and development of not only stem cells but also mast cells, significantly increased in the tolerogenic livers as compared with rejected livers. The significant elevation of mast cell tryptase, high-affinity IgE receptor, and histamine suggested the activation of mast cells in liver allografts at the tolerogenic phase after OLT. Immunohistochemical analysis using confocal microscope clearly showed colocalization of mast cells, Foxp3+ Tregs, γδ T cells, and recipient-derived hepatic progenitor cells with higher expression of SCF, IL-9, IL-10, TGF-β1, and IL-17 related to immunoregulation and liver regeneration in the donor grafts of a tolerogenic OLT model. Cross-talk among mast cells and other cells was evaluated by in vitro studies demonstrating that syngeneic bone marrow-derived mast cells (BMMCs) co-cultured with na?ve splenocytes or primary hepatocytes significantly increased the population of splenic γδ T cells by mitogen stimulation or by mast cell degranulation, and also significantly induced the hepatocyte proliferation, respectively. Our results suggested that mast cells in the donor grafts may play important roles in the induction/maintenance of immune tolerance and liver regeneration resulting in the replacement of hepatic cells from donor to recipient.  相似文献

The study aim was to identify risk factors for morphological rejection of aortic and pulmonary valves for transplantation that could be used to optimize donor selection. The files of all Dutch heart valve donors, donating in a 2.5 years period, whose hearts were processed at Heart Valve Bank Rotterdam, were reviewed for all factors that could be relevant for valve rejection and related to outcome of morphological assessment of the valves. Valves were retrieved from 813 deceased Dutch donors, 24.1% also donating organs. For 797 aortic and 767 pulmonary valves, who met retrieval criteria, morphological assessment was done. 69.5% of aortic and 37.5% of pulmonary valves were considered unsuitable for transplantation at morphological assessment. Backward stepwise multivariate logistic regression analysis, showed age, cardiac cause of death, cerebrovascular accident as cause of death or in medical history, and number of cardiovascular risk factors in a donor to be independent risk factors for morphological rejection of aortic valves. Age, sex, weight >100 kg and ruptured aortic aneurysm as cause of death were independent risk factors for morphological rejection of pulmonary valves. Being an organ donor was an independent predictor of morphological approval of aortic and pulmonary valves, while hypertension was an independent predictor for morphological approval of aortic valves. Thus, independent factors were identified that are associated with morphological rejection of aortic and pulmonary valves for transplantation, and that could be used to optimize donor selection by preventing unnecessary retrievals, limiting costs, while improving yield per donor with minimal compromise for availability.  相似文献

A patient with renal failure and insulin-dependent diabetes received renal and segmental pancreatic allografts from the same donor, with exocrine drainage of the pancreas being directed into the bowel. An attempt was made to maintain the serum concentrations of cyclosporin A between 300 and 1000 μg/l to avoid serious nephrotoxicity and rejection. Considerable difficulty was experienced in controlling the serum concentrations even with continuous intravenous infusion. When the concentrations were maintained between 300 and 1000 μg/l function in both allografts was satisfactory.At seven months the patient required no insulin and had good renal function. He was not receiving corticosteroids.  相似文献
