Clinical application progress of immune induction regimen for kidney transplantation / 器官移植

ABSTRACT

With the development of immunosuppressants and optimization of immunosuppressive regimens, the survival rates of kidney transplant recipients and grafts have been significantly increased, whereas the incidence of acute rejection and delayed graft function have also been significantly reduced. However, the standard triple immunosuppressive regimen (calcineurin inhibitor+antimetabolite+glucocorticoid) still cannot effectively control the rejection of transplant kidney. Consequently, immune induction before transplantation has been proposed. Immune induction therapy may delay the application time and reduce the dosage of calcineurin inhibitor, lower the incidence of short-term acute rejection after operation, and improve the middle- and long-term prognosis of the recipients. In this article, research progresses on monoclonal antibody-based immune induction regimen, polyclonal antibody-based immune induction regimen and mesenchymal stem cell-based immune induction regime were investigated, aiming to provide reference for optimizing the immune induction regime for kidney transplantation.
