  • Dendritic cells (DCs) and regulatory T cells(Tregs) are supposed to contribute to the inductionand maintenance of graft acceptance and trans-plant tolerance. Transplant recipients with fun-ctioning grafts were shown to possess increasedcirculating lineage-HLA-DR+CD11c-CD123+

    plasmacytoid dendritic cells type 2 (DC2) pre-cursors, forkehead/winged helix transcriptionfactor (Foxp3)-expressing CD3+CD4+CD25+

    regulatory T cells (Treg), CD3+CD8+CD28- Tsuppressor lymphocytes (Ts), TGF-2-producing Thelper lymphocytes type 3 (Th3), TCR+CD4-CD8-

    T, and NK Treg cells. However, the contributionof these cell subsets to the establishment andmaintenance of graft acceptance is unclear.

    DCs start out on every immune reaction. Theycan initiate or suppress an immune responseagainst antigen. Their diagnostic and therapeuticutilization are major research topics in trans-plantation medicine. One goal of studies in trans-plantation-immunology is the identification oftransplanted patients, whose immunosuppressivetreatment can be reduced or potentially discon-tinued without a subsequent impairment of graftfunction. The induction of tolerogenic DCs andtheir immunological monitoring in the patientblood would be an option for the realization ofthis goal. In experiments with cell cultures andanimals, DCs were identified as target cells ofimmunosuppressive drugs. Clinical studies withtransplant recipients showed alterations of DCsubpopulations in the patient blood depending onthe immunosuppressive drugs and their dosage.Up to now, no DC subpopulation could be identi-fied in the blood of transplant recipients thatwould allow prospectively a discontinuation of theimmunosuppressive protocol. Further studies invitro and in vivo are necessary to define the DCsubsets that are relevant for the induction and

    maintenance of graft acceptance and transplanttolerance.

    Treg and Ts were shown to produce IL-10 butnot IFN- and it was suggested that IL-10 might inpart account for the immunosuppressive effect ofTreg and Ts. Recently, we described in long-termstable kidney transplant recipients a domination ofmyeloid IL-10-producing DC1. In contrast to ourexpectation, the patients showed abnormally highIFN- and IL-2, and low IL-10 plasma levels. Morethan 10 years posttransplant, some patients showedIFN- plasma levels three-times higher than healthycontrols. We confirmed these data in another studyand speculated that the abnormally increased IFN-plasma levels might be associated with IFN--producing Treg and might contribute to graft ac-ceptance2. In a further study we showed that renaltransplant recipients with good long-term graftfunction had more often detectable CD3+CD4+

    CD25+Foxp3+IFN-+ peripheral blood lymp-hocytes (PBL) late posttransplant than patients withimpaired graft function3. Apparently, CD3+CD4+

    CD25+Foxp3+IFN-+ PBL may contribute to themaintenance of immunological quiescence andabsence of CD3+CD4+CD25+Foxp3+IFN-+ PBLpromotes chronic graft dysfunction. In a currentstudy we show that high IFN- plasma levels areassociated with low numbers of B lymphocytes andactivated CD8+ T lymphocytes in the blood ofpatients with good long-term graft function. Theselow B and T cell counts might be involved in preven-ting the development of an immunological allores-ponse against the graft and support the maintenanceof graft acceptance.

    An immunosuppressive capacity of CD3+

    CD4+CD25+IFN-+ Treg in mice was describedby Sawitzki et al. and Wood et al.4,5. As proposedby Wood et al., IFN- might indirectly preventfurther T-cell activation by creating a microenvi-

  • ronment that influences the function of antigen-presenting cells as a result of IFN--induced nitricoxide synthase, indoleamine-2,3-dioxygenase andheme oxygenase-1 expression5.

    Obviously, IFN- mediated immune mecha-nisms orchestrate interactions of DCs, Tregs, IFN-producing Tregs, IFN- plasma levels, B cells andcytotoxic T lymphocytes late posttransplant thatmight contribute to the establishment and mainte-nance of graft acceptance.

  • Introduction

    The goal of this brief review is to introduce thetopic of recipient sensitization in kidney trans-plantation, assess the risk it poses and discusssome of the different protocols used to addressthis most vexing problem in transplantation.Finally, some of the alternatives, such as ABOincompatible transplantation and a paired kidneyexchange protocol1.

    Sensitization is defined as the presence ofantibodies against Class I and/or Class II HLAmolecules, specifically, HLA-A, HLA-B, HLA-DR, DQ. It may include sensitization against asingle or multiple donors, leading to a positivedonor-specific cross match. It represents asignificant obstacle to transplantation, as itincreases the waiting time. In the US nearly 30%of the 67,070 patients in the deceased donorwaiting list are sensitized, with these patientshaving to wait three times longer than thenonsensitized ones for suitable match2.

    Ways that a patient can become sensitizedinclude exposure to non-self HLA molecules (pre-vious pregnancies, previous transplant or bloodtransfusions, or use of tissue allografts or homo-grafts for vascular reconstruction in congenitalheart surgery), viral infections (CMV), or non-infectious immune stimulation (vaccination, use ofleft ventricular assist devices). There are differentlevels of sensitization and these can be assessed bymeasuring the antibody level with differenthistocompatibility techniques. The combination ofa high PRA (50-80%) and a positive crossmatchindicate a high level of donor-specific antibodyresulting in a high risk of antibody mediatedrejection (AMR). Even when a classic cytotoxicitycrossmatch is negative, a low level of donor-specific antibody with a high-moderate risk of

    AMR can be detectable by more sensitive assaysusing flow cytometry or Luminex.

    Basic concepts in the management of HLA-sensitized patients

    These include a) suppression of the T-cellresponse, b) elimination of pre-formed antibodies,c) inhibition of residual antibody and thecomplement system cascade, and d) depletion ofantibody producing cells or their precursors(Nave, memory and plasma B-cells).

    Efforts to suppress the T-cell response includethe use of induction therapy with depleting and non-depleting antibodies, such as Thymoglobulin or IL-2receptor blockers. These are effective in T-celldependent B-cell responses, but ineffective inmemory B-cell responses. Elimination of preformedantibody is done with plasma exchange (plasma-pheresis, double filtration plasmapheresis, andimmunoabsorption plasmapheresis), whereasinhibition of residual antibody and complementsystem is done with IVIG or CMV-Ig. Its methods ofaction include anti-idiotypic activity, inhibition of thecomplement system, FcRII -mediated inhibitionof antibody production, and enhanced catabolism ofendogenous IgG3-5. Finally, depletion of B cells thateventually differentiate to antibody producingplasma cells is achieved primarily with Rituximab6.Rituximab is a genetically engineered chimericmurine/human monoclonal anti-CD20 antibody, thefirst of its type to be approved by the FDA fortreatment of cancer (lymphoma). Its actions includeantibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity,complement-dependent cytotoxicity and apoptosis.

    All of the above are part of the transplantphysicians armamentarium in bringing highly-sensitized renal patients successfully to trans-plantation. The main modalities to achieve thatinclude:

    In this review we will discuss desensitizationprotocols in some more detail.

    Desensitization protocols

    One of the more successful desensitizationprotocols is the one by the transplant team fromthe University of California Los Angeles Cedars-Sinai Medical Center (7). In the 1990s theydeveloped the IVIg-PRA/CMX test to determinewhether IVIg could inhibit PRA (Panel ReactiveAntigen) or CMX (crossmatch) positivity ofpatients sera in vitro. Briefly, if the IVIg in vitrotest shows any inhibition of the crossmatch test,then the highly-sensitized patients are treated withIVIg monthly x4 until a negative or acceptableCMX (living-donor) or deceased-donor transplantbecomes available. Modification of antibodyscreens and antibody specificity by IVIg treatmentcan be monitored as usual and used to guidefuture therapy. If no inhibition is seen then thework-up stops and the patient is referred forplasma exchange therapy. These patients who failin vitro IVIg inhibition or who have very high-titeranti-HLA antibody enter a protocol that includesfive plasma exchange treatments followed by IVIg2 g/kg x1 and Rituximab 375 mg/m2 x1. Thesepatients are usually awaiting living-donor renaltransplantation, although this has also been usedin patients with prolonged (more than 5 years)time on the deceased-donor waiting list. At thetime of the transplant the patients receive IVIG2gm/kg and Campath 30mg SQ, as well as steroids,Tacrolimus and MMF. Finally, a month post-transplant they receive another dose of IVIG.

    Of the 89 patients who were evaluated andtreated with this protocol from July 2002 toOctober 2005, only 2 (2.2%) failed to respond toIVIg sufficiently to allow transplantation to beperformed. The mean PRA for these recipientswas 83%, and nearly all patients had antibodiesspecific to their donors that were eliminated orreduced b IVIg therapy. The incidence of allograftrejection is 28% with a 3year patient and graft

    survival of 97.5% and 87.1% respectively. Fivegrafts were lost to rejection and the mean serumcreatinine overall at 3 years was 1.4 mg/dl.

    Other protocols include the one from JohnsHopkins University where they used a combinationof plasma exchange and CMV-Ig in 90 patientswith patient and graft survivals at 3 years of 95%and 80.9% respectively. However, the rejectionrate was higher at 62%, but the overall creatinineremained excellent at 1.2 mg/dl at 3 years8. Finally,the Mayo Clinic using a protocol of high dose IVIgand plasma exchange achieved patient and graftsurvival rates at 5 years of 97% and 80%respectively, with a rejection rate of 35%9.

    Costs and Complications

    The complications of IVIg treatment werestudied from 1997 to 2000 in the ICOG2 study ofthe National Institutes of Health, a controlled,clinical, multicenter, double-blinded trial of IVIgversus placebo in highly sensitized patientsawaiting kidney transplantation10. Adverse eventswere similar in both arms of the study (24 IVIgversus 23placebo), with the most common adverseevent in the IVIg arm being headache. Thisusually abated with reduction in the infusion rateand acetaminophen. Ten serious adverse eventswere noted, nine of these in the placebo group.

    Regarding cost, a four dose course of IVIg fora 70-kg person at 2 g/kg would cost $30,000.However, in the ICOG2 study the cost savings wasapproximately $300,000 per patient who received akidney transplant versus those who remained ondialysis for the 5 years of the study. Thus aconsiderable cost savings are realized by beingable to successfully bring these patients totransplantation.

    Future perspectives

    Although Rituximab has been used as part ofdesensitization protocol, it does not delete plasmacells that actually produce antibodies. Therefore,there has been no clear evidence of antibodyreduction reported by Rituximab alone. Toimprove the results of desensitization, treatmentsto block B cell maturation have been extensivelystudied. BAFF (B cell activation factor from thetumor necrosis factor family) and APRIL (AProlifeRation Inducing Ligand) are members of

    46 G. TSOULFAS, TATSUO KAWAI

  • the TNF family and interaction with their threeligands (BAFF-R, TACI and BCMA) is essentialfor B cell/Plasma cell survival, germinal centermaintenance, T-dependent and independentantibody responses and T cell co-stimulation (11).BAFF and APRIL are secreted from various cells,such as T cell, dendritic cells and granulocytes, as asoluble form. BAFF binds to three receptors,BAFF-R, TACI (transmembrane activator andcalcium-modulator and cyclophilin ligandinteractor) and BCMA (B cell maturationantigens), whereas APRIL interacts with TACI,BCMA and proteoglycans.

    Three reagents (Belimumab, BR3 Fc andTACI-Ig) to block BAFF/APRIL are now underactive investigation (12, 13). While Belimumab(anti-soluble BAFF mAb) and BR3-Fc only blockBAFF, TACI-Ig is soluble receptor that block bothBAFF and APRIL. In our preliminary studies inmonkeys, TACI-Ig reduced splenic plasma cellsand significantly decreased alloantibody titerswithout plasma exchange. With these reagentsdirectly affect antibody production, bettertherapeutic interventions will be available forsensitized patients in near future.
