Perirenal Adipose Tissue Displays an Age-Dependent Inflammatory Signature Associated With Early Graft Dysfunction of Marginal Kidney Transplants.

ABSTRACT: Background: Better understanding of the contribution of donor aging and comorbidity factors of expanded criteria donors (ECD) to the clinical outcome of a transplant is a challenge in kidney transplantation. We investigated whether the features of donor-derived stromal vascular fraction of perirenal adipose tissue (PRAT-SVF) could be indicative of the deleterious impact of the ECD microenvironment on a renal transplant. Methods: A comparative analysis of cellular components, transcriptomic and vasculogenic profiles was performed in PRAT-SVF obtained from 22 optimal donors and 31 ECD deceased donors. We then investigated whether these parameters could be associated with donor aging and early allograft dysfunction. Results: When compared with the PRAT-SVF of non-ECD donors, ECD PRAT-SVF displayed a lower proportion of stromal cells, a higher proportion of inflammatory NK cells. The global RNA sequencing approach indicated a differential molecular signature in the PRAT-SVF of ECD donors characterized by the over-expression of CXCL1 and IL1-? inflammatory transcripts. The vasculogenic activity of PRAT-SVF was highly variable but was not significantly affected in marginal donors. Periorgan recruitment of monocytes/macrophages and NK cells in PRAT-SVF was associated with donor aging. The presence of NK cell infiltrates was associated with lower PRAT-SVF angiogenic activity and with early allograft dysfunction evaluated on day 7 and at 1 month post-transplant. Conclusions: Our results indicate that human NK cell subsets are differentially recruited in the periorgan environment of aging kidney transplants. We provide novel evidence that PRAT-SVF represents a non-invasive and timely source of donor material with potential value to assess inflammatory features that impact organ quality and function.

Project description:Advanced donor age is a risk factor for poor survival following lung transplantation. However, recent work identifying epigenetic determinants of aging has shown that biologic age may not always reflect chronologic age and that stressors can accelerate biologic aging. We hypothesized that lung allografts that experienced primary graft dysfunction (PGD), characterized by poor oxygenation in the first three post-transplant days, would have increased biologic age. We cultured airway epithelial cells isolated by transbronchial brush at 1-year bronchoscopies from 13 subjects with severe PGD and 15 controls matched on age and transplant indication. We measured epigenetic age using the Horvath epigenetic clock. Linear models were used to determine the association of airway epigenetic age with chronologic ages and PGD status, adjusted for recipient PGD risk factors. Survival models assessed the association with chronic lung allograft dysfunction (CLAD) or death. Distributions of promoter methylation within pathways were compared between groups. DNA methyltransferase (DNMT) activity was quantified in airway epithelial cells under hypoxic or normoxic conditions. Airway epigenetic age appeared younger but was strongly associated with the age of the allograft (slope 0.38 per year, 95% CI 0.27-0.48). There was no correlation between epigenetic age and recipient age (P = 0.96). Epigenetic age was 6.5 years greater (95% CI 1.7-11.2) in subjects who had experienced PGD, and this effect remained significant after adjusting for donor and recipient characteristics (P = 0.03). Epigenetic age was not associated with CLAD-free survival risk (P = 0.11). Analysis of differential methylation of promoters of key biologic pathways revealed hypomethylation in regions related to hypoxia, inflammation, and metabolism-associated pathways. Accordingly, airway epithelial cells cultured in hypoxic conditions showed suppressed DNMT activity. While airway methylation age was primarily determined by donor chronologic age, early injury in the form of PGD was associated with increased allograft epigenetic age. These data show how PGD might suppress key promoter methylation resulting in long-term impacts on the allograft.
