Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Spontaneous tolerance to liver allograft has been reported previously in outbred pig models, but the lack of genetic background did not allow to analyze the impact of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) on tolerance induction. A model of semi-identical liver allograft was therefore developed in inbred miniature swine in order to mimic the clinical situation of living related liver transplant (parent into infant) and to study a protocol for inducing tolerance to liver allograft. METHODS:SLAdd (class Id/d, class IId/d) pigs received orthotopic liver allograft from heterozygous SLAcd (class Ic/d, class IIc/d) miniature swine. Eight animals did not receive immunosuppression. Fourteen SLAdd animals had a 12-day course of FK506 and were divided in two subgroups. In subgroup FK-1, six pigs received a daily intramuscular injection of FK506 at 0.1-0.4 mg/kg, in order to reach daily trough levels between 7 and 20 ng/ml; in subgroup FK-2, eight additional animals received two daily injections of FK506 at 0.05 mg/kg regardless of the daily trough levels. Graft survival, liver biological tests, histology, cellular and humoral immune responses, as well as detection of microchimerism were assessed in all groups. RESULTS:All untreated animals rejected their allograft and died within 28.1 +/- 9.5 days. These rejector animals developed a significant anti-donor cellular and humoral immune response. No peripheral or lymphoid tissue microchimerism was detected in this group. In contrast, long-term survival was obtained in five FK-treated animals (112, 154, 406, 413, and 440 days), whereas several pigs died with a normal allograft function from either overimmunosuppression or intercurrent causes. All FK-treated pigs developed a specific anti-donor unresponsiveness in both cell mediated lymphocytotoxicity and mixed lymphocyte reaction and did not develop anti-donor alloantibodies. The study of the anti-donor immune response by mixed lymphocyte reaction, during the first postoperative week, demonstrated a specific anti-donor unresponsiveness in the peripheral blood from the first posttransplant day. Although microchimerism was detectable in the peripheral blood for several postoperative weeks (maximum 10 weeks) in FK-treated animals, donor cells or DNA were not detected during the long-term follow-up in peripheral blood or lymphoid tissues. CONCLUSIONS:Spontaneous tolerance to semi-identical orthotopic liver allograft did not occur, whereas a 12-day course of FK506 allowed long-term graft acceptance. All FK-treated animals developed in vitro signs of specific immune unresponsiveness and transient peripheral microchimerism. The specific anti-donor cellular unresponsiveness occurred on the first postoperative day after surgery and was of long-term duration. The study of the early immunological events in this model could be of major importance regarding clinical living related liver transplantation.
