Project description:Background: As an “immune-privileged organ”, the rate of spontaneous and operational tolerance was higher after liver transplantation (LT) compared with other solid organs. However, modern immunosuppression regimens still have multiple complications, which require a deeper understanding of the real mechanism of inducing immune tolerance. Methods: Homogenic and allogeneic rat LT models were established, and recipient tissue was collected on postoperative day 7. The degree of LT rejection was evaluated by liver pathological changes and liver function. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were detected by transcriptome sequencing and identified by RT-PCR. The functional properties of DEGs were characterized by the Gene Ontology (GO), Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) and Reactome pathway analyses. The cells infiltrating the graft and recipient spleen and peripheral blood were evaluated by immunofluorescence assays and flow cytometry. Result: A total of 1465 DEGs were screened, including 1177 up-regulated genes and 288 down-regulated genes. GO enrichment and KEGG pathway analysis indicated that DEGs were involved in several immunobiological processes, including immune system process, immune response, regulation of immune response, T cell activation, cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction, allograft rejection, Th1,Th2 and Th17 cell differentiation. Reactome results showed that PD-1 signaling was also enriched. Further research confirmed that the expression of multiple immune cell markers increased, and most marker of T cell exhaustion changed significantly. Flow cytometry results showed that the proportion of Treg decreased in the allogeneic group, while CD4+PD-1+ T and CD8+PD-1+ T cells increased. Conclusion: This study, to our knowledge, was the first to reveal the impact of liver transplantation rejection on the liver at the omics level. Our results revealed that the progression of LT rejection involves multiple immune cells, activation of various immune pathways and special changes of immune checkpoints, which provides potential reference for potential risk assessment and pathogenesis. However, further clinical validation is also needed.

Project description:Ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) remains the major reason for impaired donor graft function and increased mortality post-liver transplantation. The mechanism of IRI involves multiple pathophysiological processes and numerous types of cells. However, a systematic and comprehensive single-cell transcriptional profile of intrahepatic cells during liver transplantation is still unclear. We performed a single-cell transcriptome analysis of 14,313 cells from liver tissues collected from pre-procurement, at the end of preservation and 2 h post-reperfusion. We made detailed annotations of mononuclear phagocyte, endothelial cell, NK/T, B and plasma cell clusters, and we described the dynamic changes of the transcriptome of these clusters during IRI and the interaction between mononuclear phagocyte clusters and other cell clusters. In addition, we found that TNFAIP3 interacting protein 3 (TNIP3), specifically and highly expressed in Kupffer cell clusters post-reperfusion, may have a protective effect on IRI. In summary, our study provides the first dynamic transcriptome map of intrahepatic cell clusters during liver transplantation at single-cell resolution.

Project description:The study aims to evaluate the efficacy of liver transplantation in the context of non-resectable colorectal liver metastasis. The primary endpoint is the overall survival in this group of patients while the secondary endpoint is the disease-free survival.
Patients included in this protocol will be evaluated either for whole or partial liver transplantation from deceased or living donors.
Type of different transplantations proposed are as follows:
1. Whole liver graft or partial liver (split) from a deceased donor
2. Partial liver graft retrieved from a deceased donor and orthotopically implanted after having performed a left hepatectomy in the recipient.
3. Partial liver graft retrieved from a deceased donor and heterotopically implanted if total hepatectomy can not be performed.
4. Partial liver graft retrieved from a living donor and orthotopically implanted after having performed total hepatectomy.
5. Partial liver graft retrieved from a living donor and orthotopically implanted after having after having performed a left hepatectomy in the recipient.
6. Partial liver graft retrieved from a living donor and heterotopically implanted if total hepatectomy can not be performed.
In cases 2-3-5-6 total hepatectomy of native liver can be secondarily performed after having achieved a proper graft hypertrophy in order to avoid a small for size syndrome

Project description:BackgroundAs an "immune-privileged organ", the liver has higher rates of both spontaneous tolerance and operational tolerance after being transplanted compared with other solid organs. Also, a large number of patients still need to take long-term immunosuppression regimens. Liver transplantation (LT) rejection involves varieties of pathophysiological processes and cell types, and a deeper understanding of LT immune response is urgently needed.MethodsHomogenic and allogeneic rat LT models were established, and recipient tissue was collected on postoperative day 7. The degree of LT rejection was evaluated by liver pathological changes and liver function. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were detected by transcriptome sequencing and confirmed by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. The functional properties of DEGs were characterized by the Gene Ontology (GO), Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG), and Reactome pathway analyses. The cells infiltrating the graft and recipient spleen and peripheral blood were evaluated by immunofluorescence and flow cytometry.ResultA total of 1,465 DEGs were screened, including 1,177 up-regulated genes and 288 down-regulated genes. GO enrichment and KEGG pathway analysis indicated that DEGs were involved in several immunobiological processes, including T cell activation, Th1, Th2 and Th17 cell differentiation, cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction and other immune processes. Reactome results showed that PD-1 signaling was enriched. Further research confirmed that mRNA expression of multiple immune cell markers increased and markers of T cell exhaustion significantly changed. Flow cytometry showed that the proportion of Treg decreased, and that of PD-1+CD4+ T cells and PD-1+CD8+ T cells increased in the allogeneic group.ConclusionUsing an omic approach, we revealed that the development of LT rejection involved multiple immune cells, activation of various immune pathways, and specific alterations of immune checkpoints, which would benefit risk assessment in the clinic and understanding of pathogenesis regarding LT tolerance. Further clinical validations are warranted for our findings.

Project description:Nearly one third of patients with colorectal cancer develop liver metastases. It is well known that the achievement of a R0-situation is one of the most important factors for a positive long-term outcome. Despite further advantages in multimodal treatment concepts, only 20 - 30 % of the patients with metastases can be resected in curative intention.
Recent studies, especially from Norway, have shown that liver transplantation might be a feasible option in well selected patients since the complete hepatectomy with subsequent liver transplantation can be an option for the achievement of a R0 situation.
In this study, we pursue the strategy of two-stage hepatectomy combined with a left-lateral living donor liver transplantation.
Inclusion criteria are as follows: non-resectable liver metastases of a primary colorectal carcinoma with an assumed portal-venous drainage of the tumor and at least a "stable disease" after a period of eight weeks systemic chemotherapy. Patients are excluded from the study if there is an extrahepatic tumor burden (with the exception of resectable lung metastases) or if the patient is not suitable for liver transplantation due to co-morbidities.
The transplantation itself will be undertaken as a living donor liver transplantation where the left lateral liver lobe (liver segments 2 & 3) from a healthy volunteer donor will serve as graft. Prior transplantation, a left hemihepatectomy in the recipient is performed and the left lateral graft will be transplanted in this position. At the end of the transplantation procedure, the right portal vein will be closed to induce a rapid growth of the graft. The second step, and therefore the completion of the operation is performed after a growth period of the transplanted left-lateral lobe: in this procedure, the right hemi-liver of the recipient will be removed and the patient is supposed to be free of tumor at this point in time.

Project description:Regulatory T cells restore tolerance in preclinical models of immune-mediated diseases and are therefore a promising alternative to conventional immune-suppression for preventing graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) in patients receiving allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Adaptive CD4+ Type 1 regulatory T (Tr1) cells specific for alloantigens are induced in vitro by interleukin-10 (IL-10). Therefore, we evaluated whether infusion of Tr1 cells could promote immune-competence to foreign antigens and long-term alloantigen-specific tolerance. In this phase 1-2 trial, we performed adoptive transfer with IL-10-induced alloantigen-specific Tr1 cells (IL-10-DLI), without immune-suppression, in patients with high-risk hematopoietic malignancies transplanted with CD34+ cells from haploidentical donors. Donor T cells, primed ex vivo with host antigen-presenting-cells and IL-10, are anergic towards host-HLA antigens and contain host-specific Tr1 cells but also memory T cells able to respond to pathogens. Nineteen patients were enrolled in the trial. Twelve received IL-10-DLI. Seven were not evaluable because of early death/relapse, whereas five immune-reconstituted (>100/µl CD3+ T cells) at median day 28 after IL-10-DLI. T-cell counts and function progressively normalized in patients who received 105 CD3+ T cells/kg, whereas a higher dose (3x105 CD3+ T cells/kg) caused acute grade III GvHD in one patient. Four patients are alive, in disease remission and immune-suppression-free at a median follow-up of 3.3 years, three of them were analyzed by microarrays; their T-cell receptor repertoire and gene expression profiles are comparable to those of healthy subjects. Cell therapy with IL-10-DLI is feasible, safe, and provides immune-competence. This trial is the first step towards widespread use of Tr1 cells as adjuvant treatment in allogeneic HSCT (IS/11/6172/8309/8391). Keywords: classification of clinical samples Whole blood samples of three healthy donors and three different patients collected at various time points after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) before and after the subsequent administration of IL-10 anergized T cells were analysed on a custom Agilent 8x15K 60mer oligonucleotide microarray encomprising 4610 probes in triplicates. The microarray is dedicated to transplantation research and was designed based on current literature and published and unpublished data provided by the RISET consortium. For the probe selection procedure we specially focused on the detection of multiple transcript variants of a gene, on optimized hybridization properties of the probes, and on the avoidance of crosshybridization. The RISET 1.0 platform (GPL10370) is a precursor of the RISET 2.0 microarray (GPL8136).

Project description:Pancreatic islet transplantation stands out as a promising therapeutic avenue for type 1 diabetes patients grappling with glycemic instability and hypoglycemia unawareness. Given the persistent scarcity of donor organs, there is growing anticipation that pig-to-human islet xenotransplantation will emerge as the definitive beta cell replacement therapy for this condition. The liver is the site of preclinical pig-to-NHP islet transplantation as well as allogeneic clinical transplantation, yet there’s still a lack of understanding on the pathology of the liver after the transplantation procedure. Based on our observations of post-transplantation periportal pathologic changes in primate models, we have conducted a retrospective study examining the hepatic pathology in pig-to-NHP islet recipients with short-term graft survival, employing a state-of-the-art spatial transcriptomic platform within the vicinity of the islet implantation site. Post-transplantation liver tissue could be easily distinguished into three regions based on transcriptional profiles, consistent with its histology. A notable elevation in adipogenesis and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) pathways could be identified, which included increased expression of SREBF1, CEBPA, IGF1, and TNFRSF12A. We furthermore discovered that, despite the decreased severity of the multifocal white lesions indicated by gross examination at 33 days post-transplantation, there was still evidence of NAFLD at the transcriptional level. These results prompt further research into the relationship between intrahepatic islet transplantation and hepatic microenvironment.
