Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) has been shown to prolong survival of rat cardiac allografts independently from immunosuppressive treatment. Furthermore, long-term treatment reduces the development of chronic graft vascular disease after experimental heart transplantation. The aim of the present study was to determine whether treatment with the LMWH reviparin has a beneficial effect on chronic rejection in a rat renal allograft model. METHODS:Kidneys of Fisher (F344) rats were transplanted into unilaterally nephrectomized Lewis (LEW) recipients. LEW-->LEW isografts served as controls. Animals were treated with cyclosporine (5 mg/kg/d) for the first 10 days. Nephrectomy of the remaining kidney was performed after 10 days. Allografted animals were treated either with reviparin (2 mg/kg/d subcutaneously) for 24 weeks (Allo-24), from week 12 to 24 (Allo-12), or with vehicle for 24 weeks. Proteinuria was determined at regular intervals. Kidneys were harvested after 24 weeks for histomorphological and immunohistochemical evaluation. RESULTS:No major bleeding complications were observed in reviparin-treated animals. Proteinuria was significantly reduced in allografted animals both by early as well as by late-onset treatment with reviparin. Transplant glomerulopathy was diminished in Allo-24 and in Allo-12 groups compared to vehicle-treated animals, whereas tubulointerstitial inflammation was influenced only in animals immediately treated with reviparin. Immunohistochemical studies demonstrated a marked reduction of renal monocyte and T-cell infiltration as well as expression of MHC II by treatment with reviparin. CONCLUSIONS:Treatment with the LMWH reviparin significantly improved chronic renal allograft rejection in the F344-to-LEW rat model, both after early and late start of therapy. Although the exact mechanisms of this beneficial effect remain unclear, our data offer a potential new therapeutical approach for prevention of chronic allograft nephropathy.
