Project description:Graft acceptance without the need for immunosuppressive drugs is the ultimate goal of transplantation therapy. In murine liver transplantation, allografts are accepted across major histocompatibility antigen complex barriers without the use of immunosuppressive drugs and constitute a suitable model for research on immunological rejection and tolerance. MicroRNA (miRNA) has been known to be involved in the immunological responses. In order to identify mRNAs in spontaneous liver allograft tolerance, miRNA expression in hepatic allografts was examined using this transplantation model. According to the graft pathological score and function, miR-146a, 15b, 223, 23a, 27a, 34a and 451 were upregulated compared with the expression observed in the syngeneic grafts. In contrast, miR-101a, 101b and 148a were downregulated. Our results demonstrated the alteration of miRNAs in the allografts and may indicate the role of miRNAs in the induction of tolerance after transplantation. Furthermore, our data suggest that monitoring the graft expression of novel miRNAs may allow clinicians to differentiate between rejection and tolerance. A better understanding of the tolerance inducing mechanism observed in murine hepatic allografts may provide a therapeutic strategy for attenuating allograft rejection.

B10.BR mice were used as donors and B10.D2 mice were used as recipients. Liver allo-transplantation surgery on the mice was performed in this combination. Three mice from each group were sacrificed, and the liver grafts were removed on days 5, 8, 14 and 100 after transplantation. Total RNA, including miRNA was isolated. 100ng of total RNA was labeled by Cy3 and used as probe for hybridization to the microarray.

Project description:Acute rejection of human allografts has been viewed mostly through the lens of adaptive immunity, and the intragraft landscape of innate immunity genes has not been characterized in an unbiased fashion. We did RNA sequencing of 34 kidney allograft biopsy specimens from 34 adult recipients; 16 were categorized as Banff acute T-cell mediated rejection (TCMR) and 18 as normal. Computational analysis of intragraft mRNA transcriptome identified significantly higher abundance of mRNA for pattern recognition receptors in TCMR compared to normal biopsies, as well as increased expression of mRNAs for cytokines, chemokines, interferons, and caspases. Intragraft levels of calcineurin mRNA were higher in TCMR biopsies suggesting under immunosuppression compared to normal biopsies. Cell-type enrichment analysis revealed higher abundance of dendritic cells and macrophages in TCMR biopsies. Damage associated molecular patterns, the endogenous ligands for pattern recognition receptors, as well markers of DNA damage were higher in TCMR. mRNA expression patterns supported increased calcium flux and indices of endoplasmic, cellular oxidative, and mitochondrial stress were higher in TCMR. Expression of mRNAs in major metabolic pathways were decreased in TCMR. Our global and unbiased transcriptome profiling identified heightened expression of innate immune system genes during an episode of TCMR in human kidney allografts.

Project description:Pathogenic antibodies produced by alloreactive B cells mediate antibody-mediated rejection (ABMR) after kidney transplantation, but the mechanisms controlling these antibodies remain poorly understood. Follicular Regulatory T (Tfr) cells modulate follicular helper T (Tfh) cell-mediated B cell responses but their roles in controlling alloreactive antibody are unknown. Here, we studied the developmental signals and functions of Tfr cells in allogeneic kidney transplantation. We show that costimulatory blockade alters the development of Tfr cells disproportionately by decreasing germinal center (GC)-like Tfr cells and increasing follicular-like Tfr cells. Functionally, Tfr cell deletion resulted in accelerated rejection and increases in donor-specific B cells in both draining lymph nodes and kidney allografts. Mechanistically, Tfr cell deletion increased GC B cell expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as IL-15. Neutralization of IL-15 compensated for the loss of Tfr cells and prolonged kidney transplant recipient survival. Together these data demonstrate the signals for Tfr cell development and how these cells restrain rejection by limiting alloreactive B cell responses.

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. A disease state experiment design type is where the state of some disease such as infection, pathology, syndrome, etc is studied.

Project description:Kidney transplant recipients are currently treated with nonspecific immunosuppressants that cause severe systemic side effects. Current immunosuppressants were developed based on their effect on T-cell activation rather than the underlying mechanisms driving alloimmune responses. Thus, understanding the role of the intragraft microenvironment will help us identify more directed therapies with lower side effects. To understand the role of the alloimmune response and the intragraft microenvironment in cellular rejection progression, we conducted a Single nucleus RNA sequencing (snRNA-seq) on one human non-rejecting kidney allograft sample, one borderline sample, and T-cell mediated rejection (TCMR) sample (Banff IIa). We studied the differential gene expression and enriched pathways in different conditions, in addition to ligand-receptor (LR) interactions.Pathway analysis of T-cells in borderline sample showed enrichment for allograft rejection pathway, suggesting that the borderline sample reflects an early rejection. Hence, this allows for studying the early stages of cellular rejection. Moreover, we showed that focal adhesion (FA), IFNg pathways, and endomucin (EMCN) were significantly upregulated in endothelial cell clusters (ECs) of borderline compared to ECs TCMR. Furthermore, we found that pericytes in TCMR seem to favor endothelial permeability compared to borderline. Similarly, T-cells interaction with ECs in borderline differs from TCMR by involving DAMPS-TLRs interactions. Our data revealed novel roles of T-cells, ECs, and pericytes in cellular rejection progression, providing new clues on the pathophysiology of allograft rejection.
