Project description:In clinical organ transplantation complete cessation of immunosuppressive therapy can be successfully accomplished in selected recipients providing a proof-of-principle that allograft tolerance is attainable in humans. The intra-graft molecular pathways associated with human allograft tolerance, however, have not been comprehensively studied before. In this study we analyzed sequential liver tissue samples collected from liver recipients enrolled in a prospective multicenter immunosuppressive withdrawal clinical trial. Tolerant and non-tolerant recipients differed in the intra-graft expression of genes involved in the regulation of iron homeostasis.These results point to a critical role of iron homeostasis in the regulation of intra-graft alloimmune responses in humans and provide a set of novel biomarkers to conduct drug-weaning trials in liver transplantation. The complete database comprised the expression measurements of 48766 probes in liver biopsies. The liver biopsy specimens available for the study were obtained: a) before immunosuppressive drugs were discontinued from tolerant (TOL, n=24) and non-tolerant (Non-TOL, n=29) recipients; b) at the time of rejection from non-tolerant recipients (Non TOL REJ, n=18); In addition, liver tissue samples were also collected from the following control patient groups: a) liver transplant recipients with chronic hepatitis due to recurrent hepatitis C virus infection (HEPC, n=12); b) liver transplant recipients with typical acute cellular rejection taking place during the immediate post-transplant period (REJ, n=9); c) liver transplant recipients under maintenance immunosuppression with normal liver function and normal liver histology 1 year after transplantation (CONT-Tx, n=8); and d) non-transplanted patients undergoing surgery for colorectal liver metastases (CONT, n=10).

Project description:In stable renal transplant recipients with hyperparathyroidism, the vitamin D agonist paricalcitol reduces the level of proteinuria. Animal studies have indicated possible anti-fibrotic and anti-inflammatory effects of paricalcitol. We hypothesised that early introduction of paricalcitol in de novo renal transplant recipients would reduce proteinuria and counteract development of fibrosis in the allograft.

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:In stable renal transplant recipients with hyperparathyroidism, the vitamin D agonist paricalcitol reduces the level of proteinuria. Animal studies have indicated possible anti-fibrotic and anti-inflammatory effects of paricalcitol. We hypothesised that early introduction of paricalcitol in de novo renal transplant recipients would reduce proteinuria and counteract development of fibrosis in the allograft. A single centre, prospective, randomized, open label trial investigating the additional effect of paricalcitol 2ug/day to standard care was performed. Participants were included 8 weeks after engraftment irrespective of PTH-level and followed for 44 weeks. Microarray analyses were performed in kidney biopsies at study end for the investigation of potential effects on gene expression profile. This dataset is part of the TransQST collection.

Project description:Being able to identify patients in whom immunological tolerance has been established or is developing would allow an individually tailored approach to post-transplant management of kidney allograft recipients. Ex vivo immunological monitoring was performed on samples from five groups of European renal transplant recipients (“IOT samples”): ten drug-free tolerant recipients who were functionally stable despite remaining immunosuppression-free for more than one year (Tol-DF); also functionally stable patients on minimal immunosuppression (<10 mg/day prednisone, s-LP); stable patients maintained with calcineurin inhibitors (s-CNI); stable patients maintained on CNI-free immunosuppression regimen (s-nCNI); patients showing signs of chronic rejection (CR) and healthy controls (HC). Among the investigation of other biomarkers and bioassays, gene expression profiles were generated on custom Agilent 8x15K 60mer oligonucleotide microarrays (“RISET 2.0”) on the IOT cohort (training set) and on an independent cohort of patients from the ITN (USA) that contained similar groups of patients and included 23 tolerant recipients (“ITN samples”, test set). Set of genes were identified, whose expression on whole blood allowed the identification of 100% of the tolerant recipients in the training set and 84% in the test set.

Project description:The aim of this study was to investigate the association of gene expression profiles in subcutaneous adipose tissue with percent of total body weight change in 26 kidney transplant recipients. Using multivariate linear regression analysis controlled for race and gender, expression levels of 1553 genes were significantly (p<0.05) associated with weight change. A secondary data analysis was done on a subgroup (n=26) of existing clinical and gene expression data from a larger prospective longitudinal study examining factors contributing to weight gain in transplant recipients.
