Brief Summary

Microvascular inflammation, the hallmark histological criteria of antibody-mediated rejection in kidney transplantation, remains an issue in routine practice, due to a lack of reproducibility in its r...

Detailed Description

Antibody-mediated rejection (ABMR) is due to pathogenic antibodies produced by the donor (donor-specific antibodies, DSA) that are directed against Human Leukocyte Antigens (HLA) or other antigens (no...

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Kidney transplant recipients
  • Diagnosis based on the 2019 Banff classification (polyomavirus nephropathy, T cell-mediated rejection, borderline changes)
  • Renal allograft biopsy allowing inclusion with at least 7 permeable glomeruli
  • The microvascular inflammation group with anti-HLA DSA is defined as follows:
  • At least moderate microvascular inflammation: g + ptc \> 2
  • At least one anti-HLA DSA in the serum at the time of biopsy, with a Mean Fluorescence Intensity (MFI) \> 3000 for the immunodominant DSA or the sum of the DSA
  • The microvascular inflammation group without anti-HLA DSA is defined as follows:
  • At least moderate microvascular inflammation: g + ptc \> 2
  • No historical anti-HLA DSA or at the time of biopsy, MFI \< 500
  • The stable graft recipients group is defined as follows:
  • Glomerual Filtration Rate \> 40ml/min, without clinical proteinuria
  • No detectable DSA
  • Protocol biopsy at 1 year posttransplantation without specific lesion or nonspecific severe lesion
  • The chronic nonspecific graft changes group is defined as follows:
  • Moderate to severe interstitial fibrosis and tubular atrophy, in the absence of specific lesions: active rejection (antibody-mediated or T cell-mediated), borderline lesions, recurrent or de novo nephropathy, polyomavirus associated nephropathy.
  • No C4d deposits on peritubular capillaries
  • No detectable anti-HLA DSA at the time of biopsy.
  • The ischemic acute tubular injuries group is defined as :
  • Histological lesions of tubular injuries in the absence of significant microvascular inflammation or C4d deposits
  • No detectable anti-HLA DSA at the time of biopsy

Exclusion

  • Minor patients
  • Mixed rejection (antibody-mediated and T cell-mediated)
  • Recurrent or de novo nephropathy
  • Specific treatment of rejection (T cell-mediated or antibody-mediated) in the last 6 months, excluding induction and
  • Baseline immunosuppressive treatment.
