ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the clinical efficacy of adult donor dual kidney transplantation.Methods:Retrospective analysis of case data of 13 adult donor kidney dual kidney transplantation (DKT) performed in the The Second Xiangya Hospital of Central South University from September 2016 to December 2020. For 13 donors, the average age and BMI were (53.5±12.4)years and (24.3±2.8) kg/m 2, respectively. Their mean Serum creatinine (SCr) at admission and before procurement was (132.9±54.1)and (228.7±112.4)μmol/L, respectively. 3 of them had diabetes mellitus history, and 8 had hypertension history. 11 met the United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) DKT criteria and 6 met Remuzzi score DKT criteria. For 13 recipients, the average age and BMI were (39.3±8.9)years and (20.2±2.4)kg/m 2, respectively. All of them received ABO blood type-matched kidney transplants. 2 of them had their grafts transplanted in the bilateral iliac. In 12 cases, the grafts filled rapidly and urinated immediately when opening blood flow. In 1 case, the grafts were dark in color and vascular showed weak pulsation after opening blood flow. The time to recovery of perioperative graft function (from the day of surgery to the natural reduction of SCr to the normal range 44-133μmol/L), the occurrence of delayed graft function (DGF), acute rejection (AR), ureteral and surgical incision complications, as well as the recipients’ final follow-up SCr, eGFR, urinary protein, and grafts outcome were observed. Risk factors affecting outcomes were assessed by univariate logistic regression analysis. Results:The SCr dropped to the normal range at discharge in 10 recipients, and the average recovery time was (13.8±13.0) days. In other 3 cases SCr at discharge were 300.0, 149.0, 152.5μmol/L. 4 cases had DGF, 4 had AR, 1 experienced urinary fistula, and 1 experienced incisional dehiscence, which were treated with anti-rejection, J-tube implantation, continuous catheterization to maintain bladder void, secondary suturing, respectively. The follow-up time ranged from 4 to 54 months, with a median of 28(15.5, 31.0) months. At the final follow-up time, 10 cases had good graft function, 2 suffered impaired kidney function, and 1 experienced graft failure. The average SCr and eGFR except for graft failure patient were (144.2±101.3)μmol/L and (52.9±21.2)ml/min, respectively. 4 had positive urine protein. Univariate logistic regression analysis showed that donor age, BMI, history of diabetes mellitus and hypertension, and SCr were not significantly correlated with recipients’ DGF and graft impairment ( P>0.05), and due to the small sample size, multifactorial logistic regression analysis was not performed. Conclusion:The short to medium-term effects of adult donor DKT coule be safe and feasible.

ABSTRACT

Objective: Immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN) is one of the most common types of kidney disease, and kidney transplantation is the most effective treatment for end-stage renal disease. This study aims to analyze the clinical curative effect of renal transplantation for adults with IgAN and to discuss the efficacy and safety of kidney transplantation for IgAN at the perioperative period and medium- and long-term follow-up. Methods: This retrospective study included the clinical and follow-up data of 81 adult patients with IgAN who underwent kidney transplantation at the Second Xiangya Hospital, Central South University from January 2018 to January 2022. Of the 81 patients whose age at (34.1±9.9) years old, 47 (58.0%) were male. The body mass index was (20.8±3.2) kg/m2, and the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) mismatch number was 3.5±1.2. The estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and daily 24-hour urine output for the recipients on the 1st, 5th, and 7th day after kidney transplantation and when they were discharged were analyzed. The recovery of the transplanted kidney and occurrence of complications were comprehensively evaluated. The eGFR, urinary protein, and occult blood were evaluated at the 6th, 12th, 24th, 36th, and 48th month and at the last follow-up. Results: The follow-up time was (25.7±15.8) months. No primary non-function occurred in any patient during the perioperative period time. Fifty-one (63.0%) patients had immediate graft function recovery, and 16 (19.8%) patients had slow graft function recovery. Delayed recovery of graft function was observed in 14 (17.3%) patients. A total of 19 perioperative complications occurred, including 9 patients with acute rejection, 5 patients with urinary fistula, 1 thrombosis in both lower limbs, and 4 lymphatic fistula. The eGFR at 6th, 12th, 24th, 36th, and 48th month of follow-up were (65.3±22.9), (67.6±23.0), (64.3±21.8), (65.9± 24.7), and (68.7±31.2) mL/(min·1.73 m2), respectively. The eGFR remained high during the medium- and long-term follow-ups. At the longest follow-up of 56 months, eGFR fluctuation was still mild, and the positive rate of urine protein and occult blood was low. IgAN recurred in 4 transplanted kidneys, accounting for 4.94% of the total patients, without severe renal insufficiency. Three patients had kidney dysfunction due to severe pneumonia, rejection, and stone in the transplanted kidney. The overall survival rate of the transplanted kidney was higher than 95%, and the survival rate of all patients was 100% till Januray 2022. Conclusion: Renal transplantation for adults with IgAN had a remarkable short-term effect. The recipients can be beneficial significantly to favorable midium- and long-term outcomes. IgAN recurrence is infrequent and rarely causes severe renal function damage.

ABSTRACT

Objective: Shortage of kidney allografts is a major barrier to end-stage renal disease patients receiving kidney transplantation, and it is necessary to enlarge the donor pool and find better ways of using available allografts. The global incidence of nephrolithiasis is increasing, nephrolithiasis affects approximately 10% of adults worldwide, and it also affects the kidney donors. However, there is little information about the use of cadaveric kidney allografts with nephrolithiasis. This study aims to evaluate the safety and outcome of kidney transplantation with allografts from the deceased donors with nephrolithiasis. Methods: A total of 520 deceased donors who was at least 10 years old, and 945 adult recipients with single kidney transplantation at the Department of Kidney Transplantation, the Second Xiangya Hospital from 2016 to 2020 were included in this study. The donors were divided into 2 groups according to nephrolithiasis diagnoses: The donors with nephrolithiasis (D+) and the donors without nephrolithiasis (D?). The recipients were assigned into 3 groups according to their donors and the allografts they received: The allografts from donors without nephrolithiasis (D?K?), the allografts without nephrolithiasis from donors with nephrolithiasis (D+K?), and the allografts with nephrolithiasis (D+K+). The demographic and clinical data of enrolled subjects were retrospectively analyzed. The allograft discard ratio between different donors were analyzed. The one-year survival of allografts and recipients, as well as the allograft function and the complications of kidney transplantation were compared. Results: Fifty out of 520 donors had nephrolithiasis, and the nephrolithiasis incidence was 9.6%. We recovered 1040 kidneys, and total discard rate was 4.4% (46/1040). The D+ group had a rate of 7% discard. The donors with kidney discard accounted for 12% in the D+ group, and this was higher than that of donors in the D? group (5.1%, P<0.05). The total incidence of delayed graft function (DGF) was 7.5%, and there were no significant differences in the incidence of DGF in recipients among the D?K?, D+K?, and D+K+ group (7.5% vs 6.5% vs 8.2%, P>0.05). During the one-year follow-up, 8 allografts lost function and 19 recipients died with a functional allograft. Recipients in the D?K?, D+K?, and D+K+ groups also had no significant difference between a one-year allograft and patient survival rate (P>0.05). However, recipients in the D+K+ group had a higher level of serum creatinine [(139.2±62.46) μmol/L vs (117.19±51.22) μmol/L, P<0.05] and lower estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR; (56.67±23.31) mL/(min·1.73 m?2) vs (66.86±21.90) mL/(min·1.73 m?2), P<0.05] compared with recipients in the D?K? group at 12 months after transplantation. During the first year after transplantation, 4 recipients developed urolithiasis, and recipients who received allografts from the D+ group donors had a higher incidence of urolithiasis than those who received allografts from the D? group donors (2.2% vs 0.2%, P<0.05). There were no significant differences in the incidence of urinary tract infections and ureteral strictures at 1 year between recipients of D+ and D? donors (both P>0.05).Conclusion: The cadaveric kidney allografts with nephrolithiasis could be safely used for transplantation, and the short-term outcome is acceptable. However, nephrolithiasis in donors may increase the rate of kidney discard, disturb the short-term function of allografts, and increase the risk of urolithiasis in recipients. Further research with a long-term study is needed to verify the long-term outcome of kidney transplantation using cadaveric kidney allografts with nephrolithiasis.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the correlation between the prognosis of patients infected with BK virus after renal transplantation and their peripheral blood related indexes.Methods:131 patients from the Renal Transplantation Department of the Second Xiangya Hospital of Central South University who underwent renal transplantation and firstly infected with BK virus after the surgery during the period from August 2018 to August 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. 93 males (71.0%) and 38 females (29.0%). The average age was (37.5±11.3) years old. 109 cases underwent cadaveric kidney transplant (83.2%) and 22 cases underwent relatives kidney transplant (16.8%). The onset time of the first infection with BK virus after renal transplantation was (188.7±16.6) days, and the serum creatinine was (127.5±39.5) μmol/L. 25 patients (19.1%)infected with BK virus were positive in blood and urine at the same time, and 106 patients (80.9%)infected with BK virus were positive only in urine. Among 131 patients infected with BK virus, 70 patients were treated by lowering the blood concentration of tacrolimus to enhance immunity, 12 patients were treated by switching tacrolimus to cyclosporine, and 49 patients had incomplete follow-up data. The DNA load of BK virus in 25 patients [5.6(2.4, 12.3)×10 3copies/ml] positive in blood, white blood cell count(WBC)(5.8±2.0)×10 9/L, hemoglobin(Hb)(122.0±22.4)g/L, platelet count(PLT)(187.1±63.1)×10 9/L, neutrophil count(NEUT)(3.9±1.7)×10 9/L, lymphocyte count(LYM)(1.5±0.8)×10 9/L, monocyte count(MONO)(0.4±0.2)×10 9/L, neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio(NLR)2.2(1.7, 3.5), derived neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio(dNLR)1.7(1.3, 2.6), platelet to lymphocyte ratio(PLR)121.3(86.3, 227.3), monocyte to lymphocyte ratio(MLR)0.2(0.1, 0.4) and lymphocyte to monocyte ratio(LMR)4.7±2.6. The DNA load of BK virus in 106 patients [20.4(0.4, 2 570.0)×10 5copies/ml] positive in urine, WBC 6.6(4.8, 9.1)×10 9/L, Hb(129.0±24.5)g/L, PLT 188.0(147.3, 226.5)×10 9/L, NEUT 4.6(3.0, 6.6)×10 9/L, LYM(1.7±0.8)×10 9/L, MONO 0.4(0.3, 0.5)×10 9/L, NLR 2.8(1.9, 3.9), dNLR 2.1(1.5, 3.0), PLR 120.5(87.0, 163.2), MLR 0.2(0.1, 0.4), LMR 4.5(2.8, 6.7). 70 patients infected with BK virus treated by lowering the blood concentration of tacrolimus were divided into BK virus rise group and BK virus decline group according to the change of BK virus DNA load in blood and urine before and after treatment (the grouping principle of this study gives priority to the change of BK virus DNA load in blood, followed by the change of BK virus DNA load in urine). The WBC, Hb, PLT, NEUT, LYM, MONO, NLR, dNLR, PLR, MLR, LMR, tacrolimus blood concentration and change difference, blood creatinine and change difference were analysed between two groups. Results:The BK virus DNA load in 25 patients positive in blood was correlated with NLR and dNLR ( r=0.5062, P=0.0098; r=0.5738, P=0.0027), and there was no correlation between the BK virus DNA load in blood with the WBC ( r=-0.0185, P=0.9302), Hb ( r=0.0912, P=0.6646), PLT ( r=-0.3931, P=0.0519), NEUT ( r=0.2438, P=0.2401), LYM ( r=-0.3035, P=0.1402), MONO ( r=-0.3279, P=0.1096), PLR( r=0.1054, P=0.6161), MLR( r=0.0738, P=0.7257), LMR( r=-0.0738, P=0.7257).

As for 70 patients infected with BK virus, there were 37 patients in the BK virus rise group and 33 patients in the BK virus decline group. In the two groups, age [(38.4±12.0)years old and(39.0±9.0)years old], gender [male /female: (23/14) cases and(27/6)cases], blood type [A+ /B+ /AB+ : (22/13/20)cases and (26/6/1)cases], donation type [relatives donnation/cadaveric donation: (29/8)cases and (27/60)cases], blood creatinine(after treatment)[123.0(98.4, 140.5)μmol/L and 132.0(107.1, 162.4)μmol/L] and change difference before and after treatment [0(-15.7, 10.5)μmol/L and -2.0(-9.1, 15.0)μmol/L], tacrolimus blood concentration (after treatment)[(6.7±2.0)ng/ml and(6.5±1.5)ng /ml] and tacrolimus concentration change difference [-1.4(-3.8, 0.6)ng/ml and -1.2(-2.2, 1.3)ng/ml] had no significant difference( P<0.05). The MONO of the two groups was statistically different [0.3(0.2, 0.5)×10 9/L and 0.4(0.3, 0.6)×10 9/L, P=0.033], and there was no difference between the two groups in WBC[6.6(4.1, 8.8)×10 9/L and 6.8(5.4, 8.9)×10 9/L], Hb[(133.2±25.3)g/L and(131.6±20.6)g/L], PLT[185.0(151.0, 231.5)×10 9/L and 196.0(149.0, 234.0)×10 9/L], NEUT[4.3(2.4, 6.4)× 10 9/L and 4.2(3.1, 5.5)×10 9/L], LYM[1.7(1.1, 2.2)×10 9/L and 1.8(1.1, 2.3)×10 9/L], NLR[2.5(1.9, 3.8)and 2.4(1.9, 3.7)], dNLR [2.0(1.5, 2.8)and 1.9(1.4, 2.5)], PLR [114.9(85.1, 159.4)and 111.3(77.1, 159.6)], LMR(4.6±2.6 and 5.2±2.4), MLR[0.2(0.2, 0.4)and 0.2(0.2, 0.4)]( P<0.05). Conclusions:There is a positive correlation between the blood BK virus DNA load and NLR, dNLR in renal transplant recipients infected with BK virus. The rise of MONO correlates with good prognosis of BK virus.

ABSTRACT

The effect of living kidney transplantation between identical twins is satisfied, but it is rarely reported. From October 2019 to February 2021, two recipients received kidney transplantation from their twin sisters in the Second Xiangya Hospital of Central South University. The primary disease of the two recipients was acute glomerulonephritis in 1 case and diabetic nephropathy in 1 case. Two recipients received tacrolimus/cyclosporine+ mortemycophenol ester+ methylprednisolone after surgery. The patients were followed up for 3.0 and 1.5 years, respectively, with renal function recovering well.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the clinical efficacy of single-center infant kidney donor adult dual kidney transplantation to explore the difference of different operation methods and the operation options of different donor kidney conditions so as to improve the success rate of children kidney donor adult dual kidney transplantation and reduce complications.Methods:A total of 42 cases of infant and adult dual kidney transplantations at Department of Kidney Transplantation in The Second Xiangya Hospital of Central South University from December 2012 to May 2019 were divided into two groups according to whether or not donor kidney fulfilled the criteria of three " 5" . According to different surgical approaches, they were divided into three groups of A (classical En-Bloc operation), B (separated dual kidney transplantation) and C (modified operation). The clinical data and prognoses were analyzed.Results:The median follow-up period was 55(11-92) months. The estimated glomerular filtration rate was 123.4(92.2-156.6) ml/min for operation A, 97.2(81.3-116.6) ml/min for operation B and 133.9(133.9-133.9) ml/min for operation C. In donor group not fulfilling the " 5" principle, no thrombotic event occurred for operation A/C and 3 cases of transplantation for operation B. There were single renal embolism ( n=2) and dual renal embolism ( n=1)(3/5, 60%)( P<0.05). Urinary protein was positive in the last follow-up: operation A (1/2, 50%) and operation B (3/5, 60%) ( P<0.05). The estimated glomerular filtration rate at the last follow-up was 82.4(80.9-83.9) ml/min for operation A, 71.8(46.1-114.2) ml/min for operation B and 122(83.3-142.4) ml/min for operation C. The 1-year graft survival rate was 100% and 89.5% in three " 5" donor group and 3-year graft survival rate was 100% and 84.2% respectively. Conclusions:Satisfactory outcomes might be obtained during dual kidney transplantation for infants and adults. The incidence of thrombosis, urine leakage and urinary protein is lower in improved kidney transplantation group than that in previously operated group. The problem of graft hyperperfusion injury is well solved. And the long-term follow-up outcome is excellent.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVES@#To examine the changes of coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) and β-galactosyl transferase specific chaperone 1 (C1GALT1C1) in brain of rats with ischemic injury at different time points and to explore the protective mechanism of ultrashort wave (USW) on ischemic brain injury.@*METHODS@#Fifty SD rats were randomly divided into 5 groups (=10 per group): a sham group (control group) and 4 experimental group (ischemia for 2 h). The 4 experimental groups were set as a model 1 d group, a USW 1 d group, a model 3 d group and a USW 3 d group, respectively. Five rats were randomly selected for 2,3,5-triphenyltetrazoliumchloride (TTC) staining in each experimental group, and the remaining 5 rats were subjected to Western blotting and real-time PCR. The percentage of cerebral infarction volume and the relative expression level of CoQ10 and C1GALT1C1 in the brain were examined and compared.@*RESULTS@#The infarct volume percentage after TTC staining was zero in the sham group. With the progress of disease and USW therapy, the infarct volume percentage was decreased in the experimental groups (all <0.05); Western blotting and real-time PCR showed that the relative expression level of CoQ10 in the sham group was the highest, while in the experimental groups, the content of CoQ10 showed a upward trend with the extension of disease and USW therapy, with significant difference (all <0.05). The relative expression level of C1GALT1C1 in the sham group was the lowest, but in the experimental groups, they showed a downward trend with the extension of disease and USW therapy, with significant difference (all <0.05).@*CONCLUSIONS@#Non-caloric USW therapy may upregulate the expression of CoQ10 to suppress the expression of C1GALT1C1 in rats, leading to alleviating cerebral ischemic reperfusion injury.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the influence of nerve growth factor (NGF) on the ability of differentiation and proliferation of regulatory T cells (Tregs) induced by mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs).Methods The MSCs were stimulated directly by NGF.IL-10,TGF-β and HLA-G were tested.The expression of CD4 and CD25 was detected by flow cytometry after co-culture.The expression of CD4,CD25 and Foxp3 was detected by flow cytometry after Transwell co-culture.Results As compared with control group,the expression of IL-10,TGF-β and HLA-G in NGF group was increased (P<0.05 for all).The number of Tregs was increased after the co-culture (P<0.05).The reduction in IL-10 and TGF-β could block the inducing function of NGF (P<0.05).Conclusion NGF can enhance the ability of differentiation and proliferation of Tregs induced by MSC,which is possibly associated with the increases in the expression of IL-10 and TGF-β.

ABSTRACT

Objective To compare the clinical efficacy of kidney transplantations from donors with acute kidney injury (AKI) and without AKI,and summarize the experience of evaluation and application.Methods The clinical data of 240 kidney transplantations from donation after citizen's death (DCD) performed in our hospital between November 2011 and March 2015 were retrospectively analyzed.The recipients were classified into AKI group (n =37) and non-AKI group (n =203) according to donors' renal function and urine output.Basic characteristics and evolution of the donors and recipients were compared between the two groups.Results The donor serum creatinine was significantly higher in the AKI group than that in the non-AKI group (P<0.01).Most transplant recipients accepted ATG for immune induction therapy in the AKI group,while Basiliximab was given in the non-AKI group,which was significantly different (P<0.01).Delayed graft function developed more frequently and longer in the AKI group than in the non-AKI group (P<0.01).However,patient and graft survival rates did no differ between the AKI and non-AKI groups (P>0.05).There was no significant difference in other indexes between the two groups (P>0.05).Conclusion The transplants from donors with AKI showed higher incidence of delayed graft function but no effect on 1-year allograft and patient survival.This type of kidney transplantation is safe and effective.

Objective To explore the prevention and treatment strategies for the infectious renal artery rupture after renal transplantation of organ donation after citizens death (DCD).Methods The clinical data of 5 donors and their corresponding recipients with infectious renal artery rupture after renal transplantation were retrospectively analyzed with review of the literature.Results The corresponding donors of 5 recipients had the potential risk factors for donor-transmitted infection (DTI):1 case of traumatic rupture of small intestine,2 cases of digestive tract injury when resecting the donor kidney from DCD donors,1 case of severe pneumonia and 1 case of multiple renal contusion.The pathogenic microorganisms were found in the culture of kidney preservation solution,including klebsiella pneumoniae in 1 case,candida albicans in i case,enterococcus.No pathogens were detected in 1 case,and kidney preservation solution taken from the external hospital was not cultured in 1 case.The pathological examination on the resected renal grafts revealed the necrosis of the arteries and the infiltration of lymphocytes.The culture of bacteria and fungi in the removed vessel walls of renal grafts and the iliac tissues showed there were 2 cases positive for candida albicans (case 2 and case 4),1 case for cryptococcus neoformans (case 1),1 case for klebsiella pneumonia (case 5).No pathogenic bacteria were detected in 1 case,but the possibility of fungal infection was more likely.In case 1,the second kidney transplantation was performed 10 months later after artery re-transplantation,and the kidney function was normal during the follow-up period.In case 4,the second kidney transplantation was performed 2 months later after transplant nephrectomy due to the refractory rejection,the transplanted kidney experienced a rapid loss of graft function,and the blood dialysis was given continuously.The remaining 3 patients survived so far,waiting for re-transplantation.No case of bleeding occurred again in the 5 recipients.Conclusion Renal graft artery rupture is one of most severe complications after renal transplantation.It is the key for preventing infectious renal artery rupture to screen strictly infection of donors and recipients,and to use sensitive and wide coverage antimicrobial to the donors before the removal of donor kidney and during the perioperative period after renal transplantation.Early detection and operation as soon as possible is the only treatment to save the lives of the recipients.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To gain an insight into the transplantation with donor kidneys from extended criterion donation after cardiac death (DCD) and to improve the management during and after renal transplantation@*METHODS@#Renal transplantation in 2 patients who used organs from small pediatric donors (<3 years) was performed. The graft kidneys were procured from 1 donor aged 11 months and the other 1 year and 7 months. The 2 donors were diagnosed as brain death caused by serious infantile hepatitis syndrome and severe craniocerebral injury, respectively. After the cardiac death, en bloc organ resection was performed. En bloc kidneys were transplanted to 2 adult recipients who were 37 and 41 years old, respectively.@*RESULTS@#The recipients were followed-up for 6 months. Both of them developed large volume of bloody drainage in the early post-operational period and relieved after relevant treatment. The kidney grafts functioned well and no other surgical complications or acute rejections happened during the follow-up.@*CONCLUSION@#Based on modified peri-operative techniques, it is safe to perform renal transplantation with kidneys procured from cardiac death donors who are younger than 3 years old, an important source to increase the number of organs available for transplantation, yet the vascular complications require attention.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To better understand the pre-operation evaluation of donor kidneys from extended criteria donation after cardiac death and to improve the management during and after renal transplantation.@*METHODS@#Both of the donor kidneys were from the donor who underwent liver transplantation 5 years ago in the Center of Organ Transplantation of Central South University. The donor was admitted because of liver function deterioration which led to hepatic coma, brain death, hepatorenal syndrome and cardiac death sequentially. Deceased donor score (DDS) and "zero point" kidney biopsy were applied to evaluate the donor kidney. After thorough examination of the donor and the renal function, renal transplantation was performed on 2 recipients.@*RESULTS@#The recipients were followed up by 6 months, both of whom developed pulmonary infection and relieved after treatments. The kidney grafts functioned well and no surgical complication and no acute rejection occurred during the follow-up.@*CONCLUSION@#Proper evaluation of the donor organs ensures the safety of renal transplantation with kidneys from cardiac death donors who underwent liver transplantation, which is an important way to increase the number of organs for transplantation, yet the long-term effects need further observation.

ABSTRACT

Objective To compare the efficacy and safety of twice-daily tacrolimus (Tacrolimus BID; Prograf) vs once-daily prolonged release tacrolimus (Tacrolimus QD; Advagraf), combined with steroids and mycophenolate mofetil in preventing acute rejection in De Novo renal transplantation patients. Methods 241 patients from 11 centers were randomized into two groups with 3 months observation period post-transplantation. Advagraf was administered as a single oral dose in the morning (initially 0. 1-0. 15 mg/kg every day) and Prograf was administered in two equal oral doses 12h apart (initially 0. 1-0. 15 mg/kg). Study visits were scheduled for days 1, 3, 7, 14, 28, 56, 84post-transplantion. The efficacy, safety, compliance and adverse effects were compared between two groups. Results Totally 223 patients completed the study. The two groups were comparable in age,gender and primary disease. There were 12 episodes of acute rejection in each group. There was no graft loss or patient death in both groups. The incidence of drug related adverse events was 32. 1 %and 33. 3% respectively in the control and experimental groups. Dosage was decreased in both groups and there was significant difference in each group. The trough level was similar at the initiate period.Twenty-eight days post-transplantation the trough level in the Advagraf group was lower than in the Prograf group. Conclusion Advagraf has the same efficacy, safety and drug related adverse effects as Prograf. It is practical and feasible for Advagraf substitute for Prograf in clinical practice.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To determine the expression and mechanism of osteoactivin (OA) in the kidney by establishing SD rat model of acute cyclosporine A (CsA) toxicity.@*METHODS@#SD rats were fed with normal diet for a week, which they were then randomly divided into 3 groups: an experimental group (gavage with cycloporin A and olive oil), a vector group (gavage with olive oil), and a control group (gavage with normal saline). SD rats were killed 2 days, 1 week, or 2 weeks after the gavage to examine the serum creatinine (SCr) and body weight. HE staining was used to detect the kidney histopathological change. Immunohistochemistry was used to observe the staining degree and area of OA. Western blot was used to detect the OA protein.The mRNA expressions of the OA, matrix metalloproteinase-13(MMP-13), and collagen type III(Col III) were examined by RT-PCR.@*RESULTS@#The body weight and SCr of the rats in the experimental group 1 week and 2 days after the gavage had no significant difference compared with the vector group or the control group (P>0.05).On the end of 2nd week, the rats' body weight was significantly reduced, and SCr significantly increased compared with the vector group or the control group (P<0.001).The main histopathological changes in the experimental group were inflammatory cell infiltration, vacuolar degeneration of interstitial cells, or tubular epithelial cell necrosis. Intense OA expression located in the tubular epithelium and interstitial fibroblasts in the kidney of the experimental group was observed by immunohistochemistry. After CsA gavage, the relative mRNA expressions of OA, MMP-13, and Col III significantly increased with time. Western blot did not find the expression of OA protein in the control and the vector group, which increased with time in the experimental group.@*CONCLUSION@#OA expresses in the kidney of SD rats after acute CsA toxicity and mainly expresses in the tubular epithelial cells and renal interstitium. OA is more sensitive to the damage of kidney tissue caused by CsA than by SCr. The early-phase up-regulation of OA expression in the tubular epithelium in response to renal injury caused by acute CsA toxicity might play a key role in triggering the renal interstitial fibrosis via activating expression of MMPs and collagen remodeling in SD rats.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To summarize the study of bone marrow cell infusion-induced immune tolerance. METHODS: The Pubmed database was researched using the computer for articles published from January 2000 to December 2008 using the key words of "bone marrow cells, transplantation immune tolerance" in English. Simultaneously, Chinese Biomedical Literature Database and China Journal Full-text Database were retrieved for articles published from January 2000 to December 2008 using the key words of "bone marrow cells, immune tolerance" in Chinese. Besides, Organ Transplantation, Transplantation Immune Tolerance and Conference Proceedings of English and Chinese were retrieved by hand. Inclusion criteria: relevant mechanism of immune tolerance; scheme of bone marrow cell infusion-induced immune tolerance; advantages and disadvantages of bone marrow cell infusion-induced immune tolerance; articles in the same circle published in recent years or in authorized journals. Exclusion criteria: repetitive studies or irrelevant articles. RESULTS: Mechanism of immune tolerance comprised cleaning, inability, regulation or inhibition, and ignorance. The scheme of bone marrow cell infusion-induced immune tolerance mainly contained bone marrow cell infusion combined with myeloablative pretreatment, bone marrow cell infusion combined with non-myeloablative pretreatment, pretreatment with immunosuppressive drug or chemotherapeutics, pretreatment of costimulatory signaling blockage, bone marrow cell combined with mesenchymal stem cell infusion. Bone marrow cell infusion-induced immune toleranca could induce long-lasting stable specific immune tolerance by effective immune tolerance mechanism, and had been an effective main method for inducing transplanted tolerance. CONCLUSION: Up to now, clinical immune tolerance is still uncontrollable and facultative. Bone marrow cell infusion-induced stable immune tolerance can develop a new space for organ transplantation.

ABSTRACT

Parasitism characteristics of spirometra mansoni sparganum in the living donor kidney are analyzed by present cases and relevant literatures. A female aged 49 years voluntarily donated a kidney to her son. Results of healthy evaluation were accorded with the standards of living donor kidney. During repairing kidney, a sliver cyst was found in the adipose capsule on the kidney ventral surface, near to the renal hilum. The cyst was incised, and a ivory white girdle-shaped worm was obtained. After identification, the worm was identified spirometra mansoni sparganum (living body). Pathological examination showed that the cyst developed granulomatous inflammation, combined with neutrophil and eosinophilic granuiocyte infitration. Following surgery, the donor and recipient were treated with praziquantel. No proglottid or worm ovum was detected by dung detection within 3 months, without any discomfortable symptom. The infection mode and pathway may be by eating unmatured paratenic host meat or infected cyclops. The donor and recipient should be examined for parasitic infection of sparganosis mansoni prior to transplantation. No significant symptom could be detected following parasitism of sparganosis mansoni in the kidney, so it was seldom found. Worm ovum was examined in feces, which could be the evidence for sparganosis mansoni and for case history inquisition. Eosinophilia in the blood always indicated that chronic parasitic infection. Zoogenetic infection test could be tested when necessary. Sparganum antigen could be used for various immunological tests, which could provide evidence for auxiliary diagnosis of immunology. The diagnosis was usually confirmed by obtaining a polypide by surgery or histological examination. CT scanning and magnetic resonance imaging have diagnostic value of renal sparganosis mansoni.
