A 30-yr-old woman underwent kidney transplantation from a flow cytometric lymphocyte crossmatch-negative donor. Immunosuppression consisted of tacrolimus, mycophenolate mofetil, basiliximab and three days of steroid. On day 5 post-transplant, she developed acute rejection and underwent anti-rejection therapy consisting of steroid pulse and deoxyspurgualin. Retrospective analyses of anti-human leukocyte antigen antibody revealed high flow panel reactive antibody (PRA) in the pre-transplant serum without donor specific antibody (DSA) and positive DSA at the time of rejection. Anti-rejection therapy was successful in treating cellular rejection but her graft function further deteriorated after three months post-transplant and graft biopsy revealed chronic allograft nephropathy with positive staining for C4d in peritubular capillary, suggesting the presence of chronic antibody-mediated rejection. Pre-transplant positive flow PRA without DSA may also be a risk for acute and chronic rejection.
一名30岁女性接受了来自流式细胞术淋巴细胞交叉配型阴性供体的肾移植。免疫抑制方案包括他克莫司、霉酚酸酯、巴利昔单抗以及三天的类固醇。移植后第5天,她发生了急性排斥反应,并接受了由类固醇冲击治疗和脱氧精胍菌素组成的抗排斥治疗。对人类白细胞抗原抗体的回顾性分析显示,移植前血清中存在高群体反应性抗体(PRA),但无供体特异性抗体(DSA),而在排斥反应发生时DSA呈阳性。抗排斥治疗成功地治疗了细胞性排斥反应,但移植后三个月她的移植肾功能进一步恶化,移植肾活检显示慢性移植肾肾病,肾小管周围毛细血管C4d染色阳性,提示存在慢性抗体介导的排斥反应。移植前无DSA的阳性流式PRA也可能是急性和慢性排斥反应的一个风险因素。
