Project description:After kidney transplantation (KT), donor-specific hyporesponsiveness (DSH) of recipient T cells develops over time. Recently, apoptosis was identified as a possible underlying mechanism. In this study, both transcriptomic profiles and complete V(D)J variable regions of TR transcripts from individual alloreactive T cells of kidney transplant recipients were determined with single-cell RNA sequencing. Alloreactive T cells were identified by CD137 expression after stimulation of peripheral blood mononuclear cells obtained from KT recipients (N = 7) prior to and 3-5 years after transplantation with cells of their donor or a third party control. The alloreactive T cells were sorted, sequenced and the transcriptome and T cell receptor profiles were analyzed using unsupervised clustering. Alloreactive T cells retain a highly polyclonal T Cell Receptor Alpha/Beta repertoire over time. Post transplantation, donor-reactive CD4+ T cells had a specific downregulation of genes involved in T cell cytokine-mediated pathways and apoptosis. The CD8+ donor-reactive T cell profile did not change significantly over time. Single-cell expression profiling shows that activated and pro-apoptotic donor-reactive CD4+ T cell clones are preferentially lost after transplantation in stable kidney transplant recipients.

Project description:African Americans are at greater risk to reach end-stage renal disease and this risk may carry over in a kidney transplant recipient after kidney transplantation.Linking the five-yr patient data of a large dialysis organization to the Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients, we identified 13 692 hemodialysis patients who underwent first kidney transplantation. Mortality or graft failure and delayed graft function risks were estimated by Cox's regression (hazard ratio [HR] and 95% confidence interval) and logistic regression, respectively.Patients were 48 ± 14 yr old and included 39% women and 26% patients with diabetes. After adjusting for several relevant clinical and transplant-related variables, African American donor race was associated with higher all-cause mortality, with HR of 1.39 (1.09-1.78) for all-cause mortality, 1.80 (1.17-2.76) for cardiovascular mortality, 1.30 (1.03-1.64) for death-censored graft loss and 1.31 (1.10-1.57) for combined outcome over the six-yr observation period. In the non-African American recipient subcohort, but not in the African American recipient subcohort, African American donor race was associated with higher risk of death-censored graft loss (2.24 [1.44-3.49]) in our fully adjusted model.African American donor race was associated with increased all-cause and cardiovascular mortality and graft loss.

Project description:Complications due to long-term administration of immunosuppressive therapy increase the morbidity and mortality of liver transplant recipients. Discontinuation of immunosuppressive drugs in recipients spontaneously developing operational tolerance could substantially lessen this burden. However, this strategy results in the development of rejection in a high proportion of recipients who require lifelong immunosuppression. Thus, there is a need to identify predictive factors of successful drug withdrawal and to define the clinical and histological outcomes of operationally tolerant liver recipients. Methods. We enrolled 102 stable liver transplant recipients in an immunosuppression withdrawal trial in which drugs were gradually discontinued over a 6-9 month period. Patients with stable graft function and no signs of rejection in a liver biopsy conducted 12 months after cessation of immunosuppressive therapy were considered operationally tolerant. Results. Out of the 98 recipients who completed the study, immunosuppression discontinuation was successful in 41 recipients and rejection occurred in 57. Rejection episodes were mild and were resolved in all cases. Development of tolerance was independently associated with time elapsed since transplantation, recipient age, and male gender. No histological damage was apparent in protocol biopsies performed after successful drug withdrawal.

Project description:BackgroundLong-term kidney transplant survival at the population level is consistently favorable, but this survival varies widely at an individual level due to both recipient and donor factors. The distinct contribution of recipient and donor factors to individual post kidney transplant outcome remains unclear. Comparing outcomes in deceased donor (DD) recipients with potential but non-actualized living donors (DD1) to those recipients with actualized living donors (LD), and to DD recipients without potential living donors (DD0) may provide transplant candidates with more information about their own post-transplant prognosis.MethodsWe conducted an observational retrospective cohort study of kidney transplant candidates presenting to our centre for evaluation between 01/01/06 and 31/12/18, and who also received a transplant during that time. Patients were followed to 31/08/2019. Candidates were classified as DD0, DD1, or LD based on whether they had an identified living donor at the time of initial pre-transplant assessment, and if the donor actualized or not. Primary outcome was 5-year death-censored graft survival, adjusted for common pre- and post-transplant donor and recipient risk factors. Secondary outcomes analyzed included patient survival and graft function.ResultsThere were 453 kidney transplant recipients (LD = 136, DD1 = 83, DD0 = 234) who received a transplant during the study period. DD0 and DD1 did not differ in key donor organ characteristics. The 5-year death censored graft survival of DD1 was similar to LD (p = 0.19). DD0 graft survival was inferior to LD (p = 0.005), but also trended inferior to DD1 (p = 0.052). By multivariate Cox regression analysis, LD demonstrated similar 5-year graft survival to DD1 (HR for graft loss 0.8 [95% CI 0.25-2.6], p = 0.72) but LD graft survival was superior to DD0 (HR 0.34 [0.16-0.72], p = 0.005). The 5-year patient survival in DD1 was similar to LD (p = 0.26) but was superior to DD0 (p = 0.01).ConclusionsDD recipients with potential but non-actualized living donors exhibit similar mid-term graft and patient survival compared to LD recipients. Having an identified living donor at the time of pre-transplant assessment portends a favorable prognosis for the recipient.

Project description:Anti-HLA Donor Specific Antibody (DSA) detection post kidney transplant has been associated with adverse outcomes, though the impact of early DSA screening on stable patients remain unclear. We analyzed impact of DSA detection through screening in 1st year stable patients (n = 736) on subsequent estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), death censored graft survival (DCGS), and graft failure (graft loss including return to dialysis or re-transplant, patient death, or eGFR < 20 ml/min at last follow up). Patients were grouped using 1st year screening into DSA+ (Class I, II; n = 131) or DSA- (n = 605). DSA+ group were more DR mismatched (p = 0.02), more sensitized (cPRA ≥90%, p = 0.002), less Caucasian (p = 0.04), and had less pre-emptive (p = 0.04) and more deceased donor transplants (p = 0.03). DSA+ patients had similar eGFR (54.8 vs. 53.8 ml/min/1.73 m2, p = 0.56), DCGS (91% vs. 94%, p = 0.30), and graft failure free survival (76% vs. 82%, p = 0.11). DSA timing and type did not impact survival. Among those with a protocol biopsy (n = 515), DSA detected on 1st year screening was a predictor for graft failure on multivariate analysis (1.91, 95% CI 1.03-3.55, p = 0.04). Overall, early DSA detection in stable patients was an independent risk factor for graft failure, though only among those who underwent a protocol biopsy.

Project description:BackgroundBK virus (BKV) is a significant cause of nephropathy in kidney transplantation. The goal of this study was to characterize the course and source of BKV in kidney transplant recipients.MethodsWe prospectively collected pretransplant plasma and urine samples from living and deceased kidney donors and performed BKV polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and immunoglobulin G (IgG) testing on pretransplant and serially collected posttransplant samples in kidney transplant recipients.ResultsAmong deceased donors, 8.1% (17/208) had detectable BKV DNA in urine prior to organ procurement. BK viruria was observed in 15.4% (6/39) of living donors and 8.5% (4/47) of deceased donors of recipients at our institution (P = .50). BKV VP1 sequencing revealed identical virus between donor-recipient pairs to suggest donor transmission of virus. Recipients of BK viruric donors were more likely to develop BK viruria (66.6% vs 7.8%; P < .001) and viremia (66.6% vs 8.9%; P < .001) with a shorter time to onset (log-rank test, P < .001). Though donor BKV IgG titers were higher in recipients who developed BK viremia, pretransplant donor, recipient, and combined donor/recipient serology status was not associated with BK viremia (P = .31, P = .75, and P = .51, respectively).ConclusionsDonor BK viruria is associated with early BK viruria and viremia in kidney transplant recipients. BKV PCR testing of donor urine may be useful in identifying recipients at risk for BKV complications.

Project description:The transmission of cancer from a donor organ is a rare event but has important consequences. Aim of this systematic review was to summarize all the published evidence on cancer transmission in kidney recipients. We reviewed published case reports and series describing the outcome of recipients with donor-transmitted cancer until August 2019. A total of 128 papers were included, representing 234 recipients. The most common transmitted cancers were lymphoma (n = 48, 20.5%), renal cancer (42, 17.9%), melanoma (40, 17.1%), non-small cell lung cancer (n = 13, 5.6%), neuroendocrine cancers comprising small cell lung cancer (n = 11, 4.7%) and choriocarcinoma (n = 10, 4.3%). There was a relative lack of glioblastoma and gastrointestinal cancers with only 6 and 5 cases, respectively. Melanoma and lung cancer had the worst prognosis, with 5-years overall survival of 43% and 19%, respectively; while renal cell cancer and lymphomas had a favorable prognosis with 5-years overall survival of 93 and 63%, respectively. Metastasis of cancer outside the graft was the most important adverse prognostic factor. Overall reporting was good, but information on donors' cause of death and investigations at procurement was often lacking. Epidemiology of transmitted cancer has evolved, thanks to screening with imaging and blood tests, as choriocarcinoma transmission have almost abolished, while melanoma and lymphoma are still difficult to detect and prevent.

Project description:Using the Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients, we examined the association between donor-recipient biologic relationship and long-term recipient and allograft survival among glomerulonephritis (GN) patients. Four GN types were studied: membranous nephropathy, IgA, lupus-associated nephritis, and focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS). We identified all adult primary living-donor recipients between 2000 and 2018 (n = 19,668): related (n = 10,437); unrelated (n = 9,231). Kaplan-Meier curves were generated for the recipient, death-censored graft survival and death with functioning graft through ten years post-transplant. Multivariable Cox proportional hazard models were used to examine the association between the donor-recipient relationship and outcomes of interest. There was an increased risk for acute rejection by 12 months post-transplant among the unrelated compared to the related group in IgA (10.1% vs. 6.5%, p<0.001), FSGS (12.1% vs. 10%, p-0.016), and lupus nephritis (11.8% vs. 9.2%; p-0.049). The biological donor-recipient relationship was not associated with a worse recipient or graft survival or death with functioning graft in the multivariable models. These findings are consistent with the known benefits of living-related-donor kidney transplants and counter the reports of the potential adverse impact of the donor-recipient biologic relationship on allograft outcomes.

Project description:Socioeconomically deprived individuals with renal disease are less likely to receive a live-donor kidney transplant than less-deprived individuals. This qualitative study aimed to identify reasons for the observed socioeconomic disparity in live-donor kidney transplantation.A qualitative study using face-to-face in-depth semistructured interviews.A UK tertiary renal referral hospital and transplant centre.Purposive sampling was used to select deceased-donor transplant recipients from areas of high socioeconomic deprivation (SED) (19 participants), followed by a low SED comparison group (13 participants), aiming for maximum diversity in terms of age, gender, ethnicity, primary renal disease and previous renal replacement therapy.Participants were interviewed following their routine transplant clinic review. Interviews were digitally audio-recorded and transcribed verbatim. Transcripts were coded using NVivo software and analysed using the constant comparison method described in Grounded Theory.Themes common and distinct to each socioeconomic group emerged. 6 themes appeared to distinguish between individuals from areas of high and low SED. 4 themes were distinct to participants from areas of high SED: (1) Passivity, (2) Disempowerment, (3) Lack of social support and (4) Short-term focus. 2 themes were distinct to the low SED group: (1) Financial concerns and (2) Location of donor.Several of the emerging themes from the high SED individuals relate to an individual's lack of confidence and skill in managing their health and healthcare; themes that are in keeping with low levels of patient activation. Inadequate empowerment of socioeconomically deprived individuals by healthcare practitioners was also described. Financial concerns did not emerge as a barrier from interviews with the high SED group. Interventions aiming to redress the observed socioeconomic inequity should be targeted at both patients and clinical teams to increase empowerment and ensure shared decision-making.
