(Submitter supplied) The purpose of this study was to validate differentially expressed immune system related genes described in previous studies that identified tolerant LTx recipients after immunosuppressive drug (IS) weaning. Blood was collected of tolerant LTx recipients (TOL), a control group of LTx recipients with regular IS regimen (CTRL), a group of LTx recipients with minimal IS regimen (MIN) and healthy controls (HC), and groups were matched on age, sex, primary disease, time after LTx, and cytomegalovirus serostatus after LTx. more...

(Submitter supplied) mmunosuppressive drugs can be completely withdrawn in up to 20% of liver transplant recipients, commonly referred to as ‘operationally’ tolerant. Immune characterization of these patients, however, has not been performed in detail, and we lack tests capable of identifying tolerant patients among recipients receiving maintenance immunosuppression. In the current study we have analyzed a variety of biological traits in peripheral blood of operationally tolerant liver recipients in an attempt to define a multiparameter ‘fingerprint’ of tolerance. more...

(Submitter supplied) Liver biopsy samples were obtained as part of the LITMUS trial (ClinicalTrials.gov NCT02541916). All samples were obtained from liver transplant recipients prior to immunosuppression withdrawal. Percutaneous liver biopsies were performed under local anaesthesia using an 18-gauge Jamshidi needle. A 0.5cm portion of the biopsy to be used for gene expression was stored in RNAlater (Qiagen) for 24 hours at 4 °C and then transferred to -80 °C. more...

(Submitter supplied) Complications due to long-term administration of immunosuppressive therapy increase the morbidity and mortality of liver transplant recipients. Discontinuation of immunosuppressive drugs in recipients spontaneously developing operational tolerance could substantially lessen this burden. However, this strategy results in the development of rejection in a high proportion of recipients who require lifelong immunosuppression. more...

(Submitter supplied) In clinical organ transplantation complete cessation of immunosuppressive therapy can be successfully accomplished in selected recipients providing a proof-of-principle that allograft tolerance is attainable in humans. The intra-graft molecular pathways associated with human allograft tolerance, however, have not been comprehensively studied before. In this study we analyzed sequential liver tissue samples collected from liver recipients enrolled in a prospective multicenter immunosuppressive withdrawal clinical trial. more...

(Submitter supplied) Long-term allograft survival generally requires lifelong immunosuppression. Rarely, recipients display spontaneous operational tolerance with stable graft function in the absence of immunosuppression. The lack of biological markers of this phenomenon precludes identification of potentially tolerant patients in which immunosuppression could be tapered and hinders the development of new tolerance inducing strategies. more...

(Submitter supplied) BACKGROUND: Assessment of gene expression in peripheral blood may provide a noninvasive screening test for allograft rejection. We hypothesized that changes in peripheral blood expression profiles would correlate with biopsy-proven rejection and would resolve after treatment of rejection episodes. METHODS AND RESULTS: We performed a case-control study nested within a cohort of 189 cardiac transplant patients who had blood samples obtained during endomyocardial biopsy (EMB). more...

(Submitter supplied) To study the gene expression dynamics in cytomegalovirus (CMV) DNAemic patients after kidney transplantation, we performed RNA sequencing (RNAseq) on 31 DNAemic patients at 4 timepoints (baseline, 1 week post-DNAemia, 1 month post-DNAemia, and a long-term timepoint 9-18 months post-DNAemia) matched with 31 non-DNAemic patients at 2 timepoints (baseline and long-term).

(Submitter supplied) Being able to identify patients in whom immunological tolerance has been established or is developing would allow an individually tailored approach to post-transplant management of kidney allograft recipients. Ex vivo immunological monitoring was performed on samples from five groups of European renal transplant recipients (“IOT samples”): ten drug-free tolerant recipients who were functionally stable despite remaining immunosuppression-free for more than one year (Tol-DF); also functionally stable patients on minimal immunosuppression (<10 mg/day prednisone, s-LP); stable patients maintained with calcineurin inhibitors (s-CNI); stable patients maintained on CNI-free immunosuppression regimen (s-nCNI); patients showing signs of chronic rejection (CR) and healthy controls (HC). more...

(Submitter supplied) Survival of solid organ grafts depends on life-long immunosuppression, which results in increased rates of infection and malignancy. Induction of tolerance to allografts would represent the optimal solution for controlling both chronic rejection (CR) and side effects of immunosuppression. Although spontaneous ‘‘operational tolerance’’ can occur in human kidney transplantation, the lack of noninvasive peripheral blood biological markers of this rare phenomenon precludes the identification of potentially tolerant patients in whom immunosuppression could be tapered as well as the development of new tolerance inducing strategies. more...

(Submitter supplied) The objective of this study was to uncover distinct cellular and genetic signatures of transplant operational tolerance (TOT) in kidney transplant recipients (KTRs) through single cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) using peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). PBMCs were isolated from 12 KTRs, including those with TOT (TOT, n = 4), stable allograft function on maintenance immunosuppression (STA, n = 4) and biopsy-proven allograft rejection (BPAR, n = 4). more...

(Submitter supplied) Operational tolerance (OT) after kidney transplantation is defined as stable graft acceptance without the need for immunosuppression therapy. However, it is not clear which cellular and molecular pathways are driving tolerance in these patients. In this first-of-its-kind pilot study, we assessed the immune landscape associated with OT (Tol) using the single-cell analyses. Peripheral mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from a kidney transplant recipient (KTR) with OT, a healthy individual (HC), and a KTR with normal kidney function standard of care immunosuppression (SOC) were evaluated. more...

(Submitter supplied) The ability to identify a robust means for both pediatric and adult liver transplant recipients for minimization and weaning of immunosuppression is greatly needed. We analyzed 298 samples from pediatric (n=83) and published adult (n=57) liver transplant recipients, and the public available cell or tissue specific samples (n=158). Biomarkers were first identified from the integration of the cross-platform analysis of Stanford pediatric and adult studies and validated in independent samples from UCLA on microarray. more...

(Submitter supplied) Transplant recipients spontaneously accepting their grafts in the absence of immunosuppression demonstrate the feasibility of attaining allograft tolerance in humans. Previous studies have identified blood transcriptional and cell phenotypic markers specific for either liver or kidney tolerant recipients, but the two settings have not been directly compared yet employing the same platforms. To identify potential similarities in immune parameters between recipients tolerant to different organs, we analyzed blood samples from tolerant and non-tolerant liver and kidney recipients employing whole genome expression microarrays. more...
