RESUMO

Few reports assessed endothelial activation biomarkers in kidney allograft biopsies using immunohistochemistry. This retrospective cohort study evaluated the association between posttransplant outcomes and the immunohistochemistry expression of Caveolin-1, Von Willebrand Factor (Vwf), and T-Cadherin in for-cause biopsies diagnosed as interstitial fibrosis and tubular atrophy of unknown etiology. Samples with antibody-mediated changes were excluded. The patients were followed for 3 years after the biopsy or until graft loss/death. Seventy-one (71) samples from 66 patients were included. Eighteen (25.4%) patients lost their grafts, mainly due to chronic rejection (33.3%). Caveolin-1 and T-Cadherin were not associated with graft loss. Vwf had good accuracy in predicting graft failure (AUC 0.637, 95% CI 0.486 to 0.788 P =0.101). The presence of more than 10% of Vwf positivity in the microvasculature (Vwf >10%) was associated with reduced death-censored graft survival (58.2% vs. 85.4% P =0.006), and this result was also observed in the subgroup presenting mild interstitial fibrosis (ci=1) (65.7% vs. 88.6% P =0.033). The multivariate analysis showed that Vwf >10% was an independent risk factor for graft loss (HR=2.88, 95% CI 1.03 to 8.02 P =0.043). In conclusion, Vwf might be an additional tool to predict allograft outcomes in kidney transplant recipients with interstitial fibrosis and tubular atrophy of unknown etiology, probably reflecting immune endothelial activation.
