Abstract:
Objective To establish a hyperacute rejection model in ABO-incompatible renal allotransplantation in nonhuman primates.Method ABO-incompatible renal transplantation was performed using blood group B cynomolgus monkeys as recipients and blood group A cynomolgus monkeys as donors.The transplants were distributed into 2 groups according to whether the recipient monkey was presensitized or not:(1) non-presensitized control group (n =1),not receiving any pretreatment; (2) KLH-conjugated blood group antigen A (KLH-A) presensitized group (n =3),being presensitized by subcutaneous injection of KLH-A 2 weeks prior to ABO-incompatible renal transplantation.The serum anti-blood group A antibody levels were measured using a FACS method.The graft survival time was observed and the pathologic studies were performed using the endpoint renal graft tissue samples.Result In non-presensitized control group,no hperacute rejection was observed during the surgery.With the traditional CsA triple therapy,the renal allograft survived was more than 30 days without obvious rejection,and the serum creatinine level was 263 μmol/L at day 30.After the presentization with KLH-A,recipient monkeys of KLH-A presensitized group had a markedly increased anti-A antibody levels and rapidly rejected the renal allografts from blood group A donors within 1 h after the reperfusion,which was demonstrated to be a hyperacute rejection with the pathologic studies.Conclusion The strategy of presensitization with KLH-conjugated blood group antigen significantly increases the corresponding blood group antibodies and allows the establishment of a hyperacute rejection model in ABO-incompatible renal allotransplantation in nonhuman primates.
