Early activation of coagulation is an important factor in the initiation of innate immunity, as characterized by thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA). In transplantation, systemic anticoagulation is difficult due to bleeding. A novel "cytotopic" agent, thrombalexin (TLN), combines a cell-membrane-bound (myristoyl tail) anti-thrombin (hirudin-like peptide [HLL]), which can be perfused directly to the donor organ or cells. Thromboelastography was used to measure time to clot formation (r-time) in both rhesus and human blood, comparing TLN versus HLL (without cytotopic tail) versus negative control. Both TLN- and HLL-treated rhesus or human whole blood result in significantly prolonged r-time compared to kaolin controls. Only TLN-treated human endothelial cells and neonatal porcine islets prolonged time to clot formation. Detection of membrane-bound TLN was confirmed by immunohistochemistry and fluorescence activated cell sorter. In vivo, perfusion of a nonhuman primate kidney TLN-supplemented preservation solution in a sensitized model of transplantation demonstrated no evidence of TLN systemically. Histologically, TLN was shown to be present up to 4 days after transplantation. There was no platelet deposition, and TMA severity, as well as microvascular injury scores (glomerulitis + peritubular capillaritis), were less in the TLN-treated animals. Despite promising evidence of localized efficacy, no survival benefit was demonstrated.
凝血的早期激活是先天性免疫启动的一个重要因素,其特征为血栓性微血管病(TMA)。在移植过程中,由于出血,全身抗凝治疗存在困难。一种新型的“细胞靶向”药物血栓来欣(TLN),它结合了一种细胞膜结合型(肉豆蔻酰尾)抗凝血酶(水蛭素样肽[HLL]),可以直接灌注到供体器官或细胞中。采用血栓弹力图法测量恒河猴和人类血液中凝血形成时间(r时间),比较TLN与HLL(无细胞靶向尾)及阴性对照。与高岭土对照相比,经TLN和HLL处理的恒河猴或人类全血的r时间均显著延长。只有经TLN处理的人内皮细胞和新生猪胰岛的凝血形成时间延长。通过免疫组织化学和荧光激活细胞分选仪证实了膜结合型TLN的存在。在体内,在一个致敏的移植模型中,向非人灵长类动物肾脏灌注补充了TLN的保存液,未发现TLN进入全身循环的证据。组织学检查显示,移植后4天内TLN均存在。在经TLN处理的动物中,没有血小板沉积,TMA严重程度以及微血管损伤评分(肾小球炎+肾小管周围毛细血管炎)均较低。尽管有证据表明局部疗效良好,但未显示出生存获益。
