Uterus transplantation is being more widely implemented in clinical practice. Monitoring of rejection is routinely done for cervical biopsies and is dependent on histopathological assessment, as rejections are clinically silent and nonhistological biomarkers are missing. Until this gap is filled, it is important to corroborate the histopathological diagnosis of rejection through independent methods such as gene expression analysis. In this study, we compared our previously published scoring system for grading rejection in uterus transplant cervical biopsies to the gene expression profile in the same biopsy. For this, we used the Banff Human Organ Transplant gene panel to analyze the expression of 788 genes in 75 paraffin-embedded transplant cervical biopsies with a spectrum of histologic findings, as well as in 24 cervical biopsies from healthy controls. We found that gene expression in borderline changes did not differ from normal transplants, whereas the genes with increased expression in mild rejections overlapped with previously published rejection-associated transcripts. Moderate/severe rejection samples showed a gene expression pattern characterized by a mixture of rejection-associated and tissue injury–associated genes and a decrease in epithelial transcripts. In summary, our findings support our proposed scoring system for rejection but argue against the treatment of borderline changes.
子宫移植在临床实践中的应用越来越广泛。由于排斥反应在临床上并不明显,而且缺乏非组织学生物标志物,因此对排斥反应的监测通常是通过宫颈活检进行的,并依赖于组织病理学评估。在填补这一空白之前,通过基因表达分析等独立方法证实排斥反应的组织病理学诊断非常重要。在本研究中,我们将之前发表的子宫移植宫颈活检排斥反应分级评分系统与同一活检的基因表达谱进行了比较。为此,我们使用 Banff 人类器官移植基因面板分析了 75 例石蜡包埋的移植宫颈活检组织学检查结果以及 24 例健康对照组宫颈活检组织学检查结果中 788 个基因的表达情况。我们发现,边缘变化的基因表达与正常移植无异,而轻度排斥反应中表达增加的基因与以前发表的排斥反应相关转录本重叠。中度/重度排斥样本的基因表达模式表现为排斥和组织损伤相关基因的混合,上皮转录本减少。总之,我们的研究结果支持我们提出的排斥反应评分系统,但反对对边缘变化进行处理。

Time limits on organ viability from retrieval to implantation shape the US system for human organ transplantation. Preclinical research has demonstrated that emerging biopreservation technologies can prolong organ viability, perhaps indefinitely. These technologies could transform transplantation into a scheduled procedure without geographic or time constraints, permitting organ assessment and potential preconditioning of the recipients. However, the safety and efficacy of advanced biopreservation with prolonged storage of vascularized organs followed by reanimation will require new regulatory oversight, as clinicians and transplant centers are not trained in the engineering techniques involved or equipped to assess the manipulated organs. Although the Food and Drug Administration is best situated to provide that process oversight, the agency has until now declined to oversee organ quality and has excluded vascularized organs from the oversight framework of human cells, tissues, and cellular-based and tissue-based products. Integration of advanced biopreservation technologies will require new facilities for organ preservation, storage, and reanimation plus ethical guidance on immediate organ use versus preservation, national allocation, and governance of centralized organ banks. Realization of the long-term benefit of advanced biopreservation requires anticipation of the necessary legal and ethical oversight tools and that process should begin now.
器官从取回到植入的存活时间限制决定了美国的人体器官移植制度。临床前研究表明,新兴的生物保存技术可以延长器官的存活时间,甚至可以无限期延长。这些技术可将器官移植转变为不受地域或时间限制的预定程序,允许对器官进行评估,并可能对受体进行预处理。然而,由于临床医生和移植中心没有接受过相关工程技术的培训,也不具备评估受控器官的能力,因此需要对长期储存血管化器官并进行再活化的先进生物保存技术的安全性和有效性进行新的监管。虽然食品与药物管理局最适合提供这种过程监督,但该机构迄今为止一直拒绝监督器官质量,并将血管化器官排除在 HCT/Ps 监督框架之外。整合先进的生物保存技术将需要新的器官保存、储存和再活化设施,以及关于器官立即使用与保存、国家分配和中央器官库管理的伦理指导。要实现先进生物保存技术的长期惠益,就必须预先制定必要的法律和伦理监督工具,而这一进程现在就应开始。

The overall number of pancreas transplants in the United States remained relatively unchanged in 2023 at 915 transplants, compared with 918 transplants in 2022. The number of pancreas-after-kidney transplants continued to decline and reached the lowest level in the past decade: 36 transplants in 2023. The proportion of pancreas recipients with type 2 diabetes increased to 25.4% in 2023 from 22.5% in 2022, comparable to the proportion of candidates with type 2 diabetes on the waiting list increasing to 25.2% in 2023 compared with 23.4% in 2022. The number of adult additions to the pancreas waiting list increased in 2023 to 1,876 compared with 1,736 in 2022. The proportion of candidates on the waiting list who are older, obese, or have type 2 diabetes has been increasing. The number of pancreas donors decreased in 2023 compared with 2022; however, the nonuse rate also decreased during the same period. The distribution of volume across transplant centers was relatively unchanged in 2023, with only 5% of centers performing more than 30 transplants a year. Outcomes of pancreas transplants were relatively stable from 2020 to 2022, with 1-year pancreas graft survival rates in adults of 90.8% in simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplant, 87.5% in pancreas transplant alone, and 84.4% in pancreas-after-kidney transplant for transplants performed in 2022. Kidney 1-year graft survival in simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplant was excellent at 96.2% for transplants in 2022.

Risk factors for restrictive allograft syndrome (RAS), a severe phenotype of chronic lung allograft dysfunction (CLAD) after lung transplantation, are currently not well known. In this retrospective nested case-control-study, we analyzed 69 patients with RAS and 69 matched non-CLAD controls to identify clinical risk factors for RAS. Patients with RAS demonstrated overall higher blood eosinophils (P = .02), increased bronchoalveolar eosinophils (P < .001) and lymphocytes (P = .03), and higher incidence of infections, particularly Pseudomonas species infection (P = .003), invasive fungal disease (P < .001, mainly due to Aspergillus species), SARS-CoV-2 (P < .001), and cytomegalovirus infection (P = .04), compared with non-CLAD controls. Antihuman leukocyte antigen (anti-HLA) antibodies, especially persistent donor-specific antibodies (P < 0.001), specifically targeting HLA-DQ and HLA-DR loci, and antibody-mediated rejection (P < .001), were strongly associated with later RAS. Histopathologic lung injury patterns on transbronchial biopsy (P < .001), and persistent chest computed tomography opacities in absence of pulmonary dysfunction (P < .001) were identified as early indicators of later RAS. Proactive detection and management of these risk factors could help mitigate future decline in allograft function and reduce progression to clinical RAS. Future studies should explore early treatment strategies targeting these modifiable factors to preserve allograft function and improve long-term outcomes for lung transplant recipients.

The Dynamics of Deceased Donor Kidney Transplant Decision-Making: Insights from Studying Individual Clinicians' Offer Decisions.

Despite the high demand, over 7,500 recovered kidneys annually go unused, with transplant centers showing significant variation in their offer acceptance practices. However, it remains unclear how much of this variation occurs between individual clinicians within the same center and its impact on allocation efficiency and equity. This study quantified the variability in kidney offer acceptance decisions attributable to clinicians versus enters and examined the role of donor quality in acceptance decisions. We analyzed national transplant registry data (Jan. 2016-Dec. 2020) linked to on-call records from 15 transplant centers, creating a clinician-level dataset with 344,678 deceased donor kidney offers. The primary outcome was the variability in offer acceptance attributable to clinicians versus centers, quantified via hierarchical, mixed effects logistic regression models. To complement KDPI as a measure of donor quality, we incorporated Expected Acceptance Probability (EAP), which adjusts for a broader set of donor characteristics and also recipient factors. Both center-level (0.35, 95% CI: 0.15-0.79) and clinician-level variance (0.10, 95% CI: 0.06-0.18) were significant, with heterogeneity in the KDPI-acceptance association among clinicians. These results underscore the need for further research into the mechanisms driving the clinician-level variation and its implications for organ allocation efficacy, equity, and patient outcomes.

We analyzed national transplant registry data (Jan. 2016-Dec. 2020) linked to on-call records from 15 transplant centers, creating a clinician-level dataset with 344,678 deceased donor kidney offers. The primary outcome was the variability in offer acceptance attributable to clinicians versus centers, quantified via hierarchical, mixed effects logistic regression models. To complement KDPI as a measure of donor quality, we incorporated Expected Acceptance Probability (EAP), which adjusts for a broader set of donor characteristics and also recipient factors. Both center-level (0.35, 95% CI: 0.15-0.79) and clinician-level variance (0.10, 95% CI: 0.06-0.18) were significant, with heterogeneity in the KDPI-acceptance association among clinicians. These results underscore the need for further research into the mechanisms driving the clinician-level variation and its implications for organ allocation efficacy, equity, and patient outcomes.</p>","PeriodicalId":123,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Transplantation","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":8.9,"publicationDate":"2025-01-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143078015","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
