Inflammation in Areas of Tubular Atrophy in Kidney Allograft Biopsies: A Potent Predictor of Allograft Failure

Abstract: Further, these results did not qualitatively change after additional adjustments for C4d staining or donor specific antibody. Stepwise regression identified the most significant markers of graft failure which include iatr score. We propose that a more global assessment of inflammation in kidney allograft biopsies to include inflammation in atrophic areas may provide better prognostic information. Phenotypic characterization of these inflammatory cells and appropriate treatment may ameliorate late allograft fai… Show more

“…After censoring for death, however, similar findings remain, and it is likely that chronic alloimmune damage is a major cause of graft loss in this cohort as reported elsewhere. [28][29][30][31][32] Finally, HLA typing methods have evolved, such that the HLA antigens identified in one donor may be more fully resolved than the other donor or in the recipient. 33 Where this resolution discrepancy existed, we classified the antigens as equivalent.…”

“…The preponderance of abnormalities in this study featured immunologic injury including acute rejection (12) and antibody-mediated injury (13). Moreover, the presence of inflammation in the allograft, in areas of fibrosis and TA, was an independent negative feature of allograft failure (14). Thus, IF/TA is not an idiopathic and independent feature of a large proportion of failing allografts but identification of coincident pathology is important in defining outcome.…”

“…При этом авторы отмечают значительно более тяжелый прогноз клеточного отторжения, если оно сопро-вождается распространенным интерстициальным фиброзом [23]. С другой стороны, Gago с соавто-рами продемонстрировали ключевую роль Т-кле-точного отторжения в формировании интерстици-ального фиброза, сочетание которого с признаками интерстициального воспаления ассоциировано с плохим прогнозом по данным целого ряда исследо-ваний [25][26][27]. Таким образом, создается впечатле-ние, что острое клеточное отторжение способствует ускоренному формированию и прогрессированию интерстициального фиброза, который в конечном счете приводит к утрате функции почечного транс-плантата.…”
