IgG antibodies to HLA class I antigens can cause hyperacute rejection of renal allografts. Screening of sera from such transplant candidates is laborious, time-consuming, and expensive when performed by sensitive antihuman globulin-augmented lymphocytotoxicity (AHG-CDC).
Because 60-70% of our transplant screens are negative, we evaluated a solid phase enzyme-linked method (EIA) as a potential prescreen by parallel testing 215 sera by AHG-CDC and by EIA. This EIA method is designed to detect only IgG antibodies, and all positive AHG-CDC sera were retested after dithiothreitol treatment.
There was 96.2% concordance between the tests for IgG antibodies. Seven sera (3.25%) were positive by EIA alone, and one (0.46%) was negative by EIA alone. The EIA method was also less costly ($15.00 versus $105.00) and less time consuming (hours versus days) than AHG-CDC panel testing for large numbers of sera.
We conclude that this EIA method is simple, sensitive, objective, and cost effective as a prescreen for HLA class I antibodies.
抗人白细胞抗原(HLA)I类抗原的IgG抗体可导致肾移植的超急性排斥反应。当通过敏感的抗人球蛋白增强淋巴细胞毒性试验(AHG-CDC)对这类移植候选者的血清进行筛查时,操作繁琐、耗时且昂贵。
由于我们60%-70%的移植筛查结果为阴性,我们通过AHG-CDC和酶联免疫吸附测定法(EIA)对215份血清进行平行检测,评估EIA作为一种潜在预筛查方法的效果。这种EIA方法仅用于检测IgG抗体,所有AHG-CDC阳性血清在经过二硫苏糖醇处理后重新检测。
IgG抗体检测之间的一致性为96.2%。7份血清(3.25%)仅EIA检测呈阳性,1份血清(0.46%)仅EIA检测呈阴性。对于大量血清检测,EIA方法也比AHG-CDC组试验成本更低(15美元对105美元)且耗时更短(数小时对数天)。
我们得出结论,这种EIA方法作为HLA I类抗体的预筛查方法简单、灵敏、客观且具有成本效益。
