Abstract

Distinct lymphocyte populations have been identified that either promote or impede the establishment of chimerism and tolerance through allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT). Natural killer T (NKT) cells have pleiotropic regulatory properties capable of either augmenting or downmodulating various immune responses. We investigated in this study whether NKT cells affect outcome in mixed chimerism models employing fully mismatched nonmyeloablative BMT with costimulation blockade (CB). The absence of NKT cells had no detectable effect on chimerism or skin graft tolerance after conditioning with 3Gy total body irradiation (TBI), and a limited positive effect with 1Gy TBI. Stimulation of NKT cells with alpha-galactosylceramide (alpha-gal) at the time of BMT prevented chimerism and tolerance. Activation of recipient (as opposed to donor) NKT cells was necessary and sufficient for the alpha-gal effect. The detrimental effect of NKT activation was also observed in the absence of T cells after conditioning with in vivo T-cell depletion (TCD). NKT cells triggered rejection of BM via NK cells as chimerism and tolerance were not abrogated when NKT cells were stimulated in the absence of both NK cells and T cells. Thus, activation of NKT cells at the time of BMT overcomes the effects of CB, inhibiting the establishment of chimerism and tolerance.

Abstract

Between October 1989 and December 1994 in 13 (four single and nine bilateral lung transplantations) of 124 lung transplantations, pulmonary allografts were considered to be too large to fit into the recipient thoracic cavity.In all these patients (emphysema n = 6, fibrosis n = 4, pulmonary hypertension n = 3), the transplanted lungs were trimmed by extra anatomic wedge resections with the use of mechanical stapling devices to reach an acceptable size.No postoperative complication attributable to the tailoring procedure was observed.Tailoring of the lung is a safe and efficient method to overcome moderate size disparities between donor and recipient lungs.

Abstract

Incidence, aetiology, diagnosis and treatment of round lesions in the lungs were analysed in 64 patients after lung transplantation (33 men, 31 women; mean age 45 [21-68] years; postoperative survival2 weeks). These lesions were found in 8 patients 1-10 months (median of 5.8 months) after the transplantation, singly in two, multiple in six. In six patients it was an incidental finding, further elucidated by computed tomography or fine-needle biopsy. The aetiology varied from B-cell "lymphoma" (posttransplant lymphoproliferative disorder-PTLD) in three patients, aspergilloma in two, and bacterial abscess in one. Two patients died of septicaemia (Aspergillus; Pseudomonas aeruginosa/Staphylococcus aureus), while four had a full remission. The solitary lesions disappeared without specific treatment in 2-3 weeks. If round lesions are noted after lung transplantation, rapid histological and microbiological diagnosis and aggressive treatment are necessary to combat an otherwise high death-rate. PTLD and infection (bacterial or mycotic) are the most frequent causes.

Abstract

Background Kidney recipients maintaining a prolonged allograft survival in the absence of immunosuppressive drugs and without evidence of rejection are supposed to be exceptional. The ERA-EDTA-DESCARTES working group together with Nantes University launched a European-wide survey to identify new patients, describe them and estimate their frequency for the first time. Methods Seventeen coordinators distributed a questionnaire in 256 transplant centres and 28 countries in order to report as many operationally tolerant patients (TOL; defined as having a serum creatinine
