Project description:Acute allograft rejection is a leading cause for the failure of organ allotransplantation. Identifying the genes involved in the rejection process provides clues to study the mechanisms, and to provide specific gene targets for monitoring, predicting and preventing acute allograft rejection. Using a mice model of skin acute allograft rejection and SAGE method, we analyzed gene expression in the CD4+ T cells of the mice, the cell type known to play critical roles in acute allograft rejection. Our study identifies 402 SAGE tags significantly different from these from the control. From these SAGE tags, we identified 91 increasingly and 85 decreasingly expressed genes, and many genes have not been linked with acute allograft rejection before. Functional classification of these genes shows that apoptosis, transcription regulation, cell growth and maintenance and signal transduction are among the most frequently changed functional groups. Our study provides a genome-wide view for the genes involving acute allograft rejection in the CD4+ T cells, and indicates that acute allograft rejection involves multiple genes in different functional categories. The genes identified from the study provide candidates for further studying the mechanisms and for monitoring, predicting and preventing acute allograft rejection.

Project description:The data set contains 67 array (lymphochip cDNA array), published in N Engl J Med 2003 Jul 10;349(2):125-38. PMID: 12853585. TITLE: Molecular heterogeneity in acute renal allograft rejection identified by DNA microarray profiling. BACKGROUND: The causes and clinical course of acute rejection vary, and it is not possible to predict graft outcome reliably on the basis of available clinical, pathological, and genetic markers. We hypothesized that previously unrecognized molecular heterogeneity might underlie some of the variability in the clinical course of acute renal allograft rejection and in its response to treatment. METHODS: We used DNA microarrays in a systematic study of gene-expression patterns in biopsy samples from normal and dysfunctional renal allografts. A combination of exploratory and supervised bioinformatic methods was used to analyze these profiles. : We found consistent differences among the gene-expression patterns associated with acute rejection, nephrotoxic effects of drugs, chronic allograft nephropathy, and normal kidneys. The gene-expression patterns associated with acute rejection suggested at least three possible distinct subtypes of acute rejection that, although indistinguishable by light microscopy, were marked by differences in immune activation and cellular proliferation. Since the gene-expression patterns pointed to substantial variation in the composition of immune infiltrates, we used immunohistochemical staining to define these subtypes further. This analysis revealed a striking association between dense CD20+ B-cell infiltrates and both clinical glucocorticoid resistance (P=0.01) and graft loss (P<0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Systematic analysis of gene-expression patterns provides a window on the biology and pathogenesis of renal allograft rejection. Biopsy samples from patients with acute rejection that are indistinguishable on conventional histologic analysis reveal extensive differences in gene expression, which are associated with differences in immunologic and cellular features and clinical course. The presence of dense clusters of B cells in a biopsy sample was strongly associated with severe graft rejection, suggesting a pivotal role of infiltrating B cells in acute rejection.

Project description:Acute lung rejection is a risk factor for chronic rejection, jeopardizing the long-term survival of lung transplant recipients. At present, acute rejection is diagnosed by transbronchial lung biopsies, which are invasive, expensive, and subject to significant sampling error. In this study, we sought to identify groups of genes whose collective expression in BAL cells best classifies acute rejection versus no-rejection. BAL samples were analyzed from 32 unique subjects whose concurrent histology showed acute rejection (n=14) or no rejection (n=18). Global BAL cell gene expression was measured using Affymetrix U133A microarrays. The nearest shrunken centroid method with 10-fold cross validation was used to define the classification model. 250 runs of the algorithm were performed to determine the range of misclassification error and the most influential genes in determining classifiers. The estimated overall misclassification rate was below 20%. Seven transcripts were present in every classifier and 52 transcripts were present in at least 70% of classifiers; these transcripts were notable for involvement with T-cell function, cytotoxic CD8 activity, and granulocyte degranulation. The proportions of both lymphocytes and neutrophils in BAL samples increased with increasing probability of acute rejection; this trend was more pronounced with neutrophils. We conclude that there is a prominent acute rejection-associated signature in BAL cells characterized by increased T-cell, CD8+ cytotoxic cell, and neutrophil gene expression; this is consistent with established mechanistic concepts of the acute rejection response.

Project description:CONTEXT Slowly progressive chronic tubulo-interstitial damage jeopardizes long-term renal allograft survival. Both immune and non-immune mechanisms are thought to contribute, but the most promising targets for timely intervention have not been identified. OBJECTIVE In the current study we seek to determine the driving force behind progressive histological damage of renal allografts, without the interference of donor pathology, delayed graft function and acute graft rejection. DESIGN We used microarrays to examine whole genome expression profiles in renal allograft protocol biopsies, and analyzed the correlation between gene expression and the histological appearance over time. The gene expression profiles in these protocol biopsies were then compared with gene expression of biopsies with acute T-cell mediated rejection. PATIENTS Human renal allograft biopsies (N=120) were included: 96 rejection-free protocol biopsies and 24 biopsies with T-cell mediated acute rejection. RESULTS In this highly cross-validated study, we demonstrate the significant association of established, ongoing and future chronic histological damage with regulation of adaptive immune gene expression (T-cell and B-cell transcript sets) and innate immune response gene expression (dendritic cell, NK-cell, mast cell and granulocyte transcripts). We demonstrate the ability of gene expression analysis to perform as a quantitative marker for ongoing inflammation with a wide dynamic range: from subtle subhistological inflammation prior to development of chronic damage, over moderate subclinical inflammation associated with chronic histological damage, to marked inflammation of Banff-grade acute T-cell mediated rejection. CONCLUSION Progressive chronic histological damage after kidney transplantation is associated with significant regulation of both innate and adaptive immune responses, months before the histological lesions appear. This study therefore corroborates the hypothesis that quantitative inflammation below the diagnostic threshold of classic T-cell or antibody-mediated rejection is associated with early subclinical stages of progressive renal allograft damage. We used microarrays to examine whole genome expression profiles in renal allograft protocol biopsies, and analyzed the correlation between gene expression and the histological appearance over time. The gene expression profiles in these protocol biopsies were then compared with gene expression of biopsies with acute T-cell mediated rejection. Human renal allograft biopsies (N=120) were included: 96 rejection-free protocol biopsies and 24 biopsies with T-cell mediated acute rejection.

Project description:Compromised renal function after renal allograft transplantation often results in anemia in the recipient. Molecular mechanisms leading to anemia during acute rejection are not fully understood; inadequate erythropoietin production and iron deficiency have been reported to be the main contributors. To increase our understanding of the molecular events underlying anemia in acute rejection, we analyzed the gene expression profiles of peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) from four pediatric renal allograft recipients with acute rejection and concurrent anemia, using DNA microarrays containing 9000 human cDNA clones (representing 7469 unique genes). In these anemic rejecting patients, an 'erythropoiesis cluster' of 11 down-regulated genes was identified, involved in hemoglobin transcription and synthesis, iron and folate binding and transport. Additionally, some alloimmune response genes were simultaneously down-regulated. An independent data set of 36 PBL samples, some with acute rejection and some with concurrence of acute rejection and anemia, were analyzed to support a possible association between acute rejection and anemia. In conclusion, analysis using DNA microarrays has identified a cluster of genes related to hemoglobin synthesis and/or erythropoeisis that was altered in kidneys with renal allograft rejection compared with normal kidneys. The possible relationship between alterations in the expression of this cluster, reduced renal function, the alloimmune process itself, and other influences on the renal transplant awaits further analysis.

Project description:Acute renal allograft rejection is an important complication in kidney transplantation. Accurate diagnosis of rejection events is necessary for timely response and treatment. We illustrate the usefulness and biological relevance of selected multivariate approaches to detect rejection from genomic and proteomic signals. The data was used to study gene expression changes using whole genome microarray analysis of peripheral blood from subjects with acute rejection (n=20) and non-rejecting controls (n=20) to obtain insight into the molecular and biological causation of acute renal allograft rejection when combined with proteomics (iTRAQ) data for the same patients/time-points.

Project description:Background: Acute T cell-mediated rejection (TCMR) is a common immunological feature in renal transplantation and is associated with reduced graft survival. However, the full immunological profiling of acute TCMR remains unknown. Methods: A fully mismatched acute TCMR model was induced by transplanting the left kidneys from BALB/c mice into C56BL/6J mice. Allografted kidneys were harvested on day 7 (D7) and sorted for CD45+ leukocytes for single cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) . In addition, scRNA-seq data of CD45+ immune cells on day 15 (D15) containing GSE157292 dataset (samples GSM4761000 and GSM4761003) were downloaded from Gene Expression Omnibus. All data obtained from D7 and D15 were integrated and analyzed. Results: We identified 20 major immune cell types among 10921 immune cells, including macrophages, B cells, T cells, dendritic cells, natural killer cells, neutrophils, and basophils in kidney allografts. Macrophages and CD8 T cells constituted the main immune cell populations on both D7 and D15. In the process towards immune regression, the proportion of CD8 T cells dropped significantly by about 25%, mainly due to decreased proliferation and naïve CD8 T cell infiltration. The proportion of both B cells and neutrophils also decreased by about 3 folds. On the contrary, the relative proportion of macrophages and DCs increased significantly, especially by a 4 fold increase in Ly6cloMrc1+ resident macrophages A group of Ly6cloEar2+ macrophages also increased by about 3 folds. Moreover, myeloid cells harbored the richest ligand and receptor (LR) pairs with other cell types, particularly for chemokine ligands such as Cxcl9, Cxcl10, Cxcl16 and Yars. However, macrophages with weak response to interferon gamma (IFNg) contributed to rejection regression. Conclusions: There is a comprehensive single-cell landscape of the kidney allograft immune cells from rejection progression to regression in acute TCMR. Reduction in CD8 T cells, B cells, and neutrophils while increasing in Ly6clo macrophages, including Ly6cloMrc1+ resident macrophages and Ly6cloEar2+ macrophages, may contribute significantly to immune rejection regression during acute TCMR.
