Project description:Renal transplantation from hepatitis C (HCV) nucleic acid amplification test-positive (NAAT-positive) donors to uninfected recipients has greatly increased the organ donation pool. However, there is concern for adverse outcomes in these recipients due to dysregulated immunologic activation secondary to active inflammation from acute viremia at the time of transplantation. This includes increased rates of cytomegalovirus (CMV) DNAemia and allograft rejection. In this study, we evaluate transcriptional responses in circulating leukocytes to define the character, timing, and resolution of this immune dysregulation and assess for biomarkers of adverse outcomes in transplant patients. We enrolled 67 renal transplant recipients (30 controls, 37 HCV recipients) and performed RNA sequencing on serial samples from one, 3-, and 6-months post-transplant. CMV DNAemia and allograft rejection outcomes were measured. Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator was utilized to develop gene expression classifiers predictive of clinical outcomes. Acute HCV incited a marked transcriptomic response in circulating leukocytes of renal transplant recipients in the acute post-transplant setting, despite the presence of immunosuppression, with 109 genes significantly differentially expressed compared to controls. These HCV infection-associated genes were reflective of antiviral immune pathways and generally resolved by the 3-month timepoint after sustained viral response (SVR) for HCV. Differential gene expression was also noted from patients who developed CMV DNAemia or allograft rejection compared to those who did not, although transcriptomic classifiers could not accurately predict these outcomes, likely due to sample size and variable time-to-event. Acute HCV infection incites evidence of immune activation and canonical antiviral responses in the human host even in the presence of systemic immunosuppression. After treatment of HCV with antiviral therapy and subsequent aviremia, this immune activation resolves. Changes in gene expression patterns in circulating leukocytes are associated with some clinical outcomes, although larger studies are needed to develop accurate predictive classifiers of these events.

Project description:Recipients of live donor transplant kidneys (LIV) exhibit a significantly longer allograft half-life compared with cadaveric donor organs (CADs). The reasons are incompletely understood. Therefore this study sought to elucidate the genome-wide gene expression profiles in microdissected transplant kidney biopsies obtained from five cadaveric and five matched live donors before transplantation. cDNA microarrays were used to determine the transcripts in isolated glomeruli (G) and the tubulointerstitial (TI) compartment. Data were subjected to hierarchical clustering, maxT adjustment and a jackknife procedure to ensure robustness of reported findings; validation was performed by independent analysis of split biopsies and TaqMan-PCR. One hundred and thirteen sequences representing 62 unique genes (17 redundant features), and 34 ESTs separated G from TI. No difference in gene expression was found in G between LIV and CAD kidneys, but nine genes (two represented twice) and three ESTs were abundantly expressed in the CAD TI compared with LIV. The main biological function of these genes is counter regulation of oxidative stress. Promoter analysis of significant features suggested coregulated gene groups. These data suggest that CAD kidneys exhibit a distinctly different set of transcripts in the TI compartment but not in the G compartment when compared with LIV kidneys. An all pairs experiment design type is where all labeled extracts are compared to every other labeled extract. Computed

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:Transplant candidates are facing incremental mortality risks on the waiting list. Here, we report a novel strategy to expand the donor pool by including hepatitis C seropositive (HCV+) donors. We investigated a pre-exposure prophylactic (PrEP) treatment with direct-acting antivirals (DAA) to allow transplantation for HCV seronegative (HCV-) kidney transplant recipients (KTR) with the aim to prevent HCV infection post transplantation. In this prospective trial, a pan-genotypic PrEP with daclatasvir and sofosbuvir once daily for 12 week was administered at transplantation. The primary endpoint sustained virological negativity (SVN) 12 weeks after the end of PrEP. Seven patients received a transplantation from four HCV+ donors. Accumulated waiting time was 70 ± 31.3 months already. Of note, study subjects underwent transplantation 24.7 ± 16.1 days after given consent. All KTR developed excellent graft function without any rejection episodes. One patient died with a functioning graft due to sepsis 13 months after transplantation. PrEP demonstrated efficacy with no signs of HCV transmission with excellent tolerability. Two out of four HCV+ donors were viremic at the time of explantation. Interestingly, KTR developed HCV antibodies also from non viramic donors. The acceptance of HCV+ donor was safe and reduced waiting time under the protection of PrEP DAA in kidney transplantation.

Project description:In individuals highly exposed to hepatitis C virus (HCV), reinfection is common, suggesting that natural development of sterilising immunity is difficult. In those that are reinfected, some will develop a persistent infection, while a small proportion repeatedly clear the virus, suggesting natural protection is possible. The aim of this study was to characterise immune responses associated with rapid natural clearance of HCV reinfection. Broad neutralising antibodies (BnAbs) and Envelope 2 (E2)-specific memory B cell (MBCs) responses were examined longitudinally in 15 subjects with varied reinfection outcomes. BnAb responses were associated with MBC recall, but not with reinfection clearance. Strong evidence of antigen imprinting was found, and the B cell receptor repertoire showed a high level of clonality with ongoing somatic hypermutation of many clones over subsequent reinfection events. Single cell transcriptomic analyses showed that cleared reinfections featured an activated transcriptomic profile in HCV-specific B cells that rapidly expanded upon reinfection. MBC quality, but not necessarily breadth of nAb responses, is important for protection against antigenically diverse variants, which is encouraging for HCV vaccine development.

Project description:The histological evaluation of liver via biopsy remains as the standard for the diagnosis of both acute cellular rejection (ACR) and recurrent hepatitis C (RHC) after liver transplantation. Nevertheless, it is often difficult to diagnose ACR in HCV-positive recipients because of common co-existing and overlapping morphological changes with RHC. The aim of the study was to identify potential target genes for ACR in recipients with RHC. We analyzed 22 liver biopsy samples obtained from 21 HCV-positive recipients. The clinicopathological diagnoses for the biopsies were ACR-predominant with superimposed RHC in 9 samples (ACR group) and RHC with no ACR (non-ACR group) in the remaining. We compared the transcriptional alterations between the two groups with oligonucleotide microarray and selected 2206 genes which were significantly modulated in ACR. Subsequently we analyzed the regulatory networks in ACR using Ingenuity Pathway Analysis, and focused on 5 genes (IFNAR1, IL-12RB2, NFATC3, BMP2, and CASP8) from the core network as the target genes for ACR. In conclusion, our results demonstrated that novel transcriptome patterns of ACR and concurrent RHC were present and distinct from recipients with only RHC, suggesting that gene expression profiling may have a role in the diagnosis of ACR in recipients with hepatitis C.
