Methods Donor bone marrow cells (BMCs)were harvested simultaneously with donor cardiac graft using modified perfusion method (PM) ,then stored in a -80 ℃ refrigerator after filtration and centrifugation. Whole BMCs (IBM-BMT) (monocytes 1.2 ×107/kg,CD34+ cells 2.38× 105/kg) in host iliac bones were injected into the bone marrow cavity 40 days after heart transplantation. Preconditoning regimens that consisted of fludarabine, antithymoctye globin and total lymphoid irradiation were performed 3 days before BMT. Tacrolimus (Tac) was administrated intravenously after BMT or orally in conjunction with mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) 3 weeks later.Cyclosporine and MMF were orally administrated 6 weeks later. Donor chimerism was detected using short tandem repeats-polymerase chain reaction in monocytes from peripheral blood at the 2nd,4th, 8th or 12th week after BMT or BMCs at the 4th, 8th or 12th week after BMT. Intramyocardium electrocardiography examination or endomyocardial biopsy was performed weekly or monthly respectively. Mixed lymphocyte reactions (MLR) were performed 3 months after BMT. Results Donor chimerism in monocytes in peripheral blood or BMCs in iliac bones measured at the 1 st,2nd and 3rd month after BMT was 26.3%, 19.1%,4.8% ,and 46.3%, 24.4%, 7.6%, respectively. After 3-month follow-up, there was no rejection confirmed by endomyocardial biopsy or intramyocardium electrocardiography. Echocardiography revealed that the diastolic and systolic function of the cardiac graft was maintained well 3 months after BMT. MLR revealed donor-specific hyporesponsiveness while immunocompetence was preserved to third-party antigens. Conclusion These findings indicate that the two-stage BMT strategy is a safe and feasible method for the induction of donor-specific tolerance via stable mixed chimerism and needs to be further confirmed after a long-term observation. 相似文献

A new strategy for organ allografts that does not require recourse to immunosuppressants is established in mice. The strategy includes sublethal (7 Gy) irradiation followed by the injection of donor bone marrow cells (BMCs) via the portal vein (P.V.) and organ allografts 1 day after irradiation. Irradiation doses (< or =7 Gy) are found to allow the recipients to survive without the need to reconstitute the BMCs, as the recipient hematolymphoid cells can gradually recover. One hundred percent of recipients irradiated with 7 Gy followed by either P.V. or i.v. injection of donor BMCs accept organ allografts (the skin, pancreas, and adrenal glands) for more than 1 year. However, organ allograft survival rates decrease when irradiation doses are reduced; the skin graft survival rate of mice treated with 6.5 Gy and P.V. injection of BMCs is 79%, whereas that of mice treated with 6.5 Gy and i.v. injection is 50%, indicating that the P.V. injection of BMCs induces persistent tolerance more effectively than the i.v. injection. H-2 typing reveals that almost all the hematolymphoid cells (>98%) in the peripheral blood and hematolymphoid organs are donor-derived even 1 year after the treatment (7 Gy and P.V.). The T cells are tolerant to both donor-type and host-type MHC determinants. The major mechanism underlying the persistent tolerance induced by this strategy seems to be because of clonal deletion. This simple and safe strategy would be of great advantage for human organ transplantation. 相似文献

INTRODUCTION: Islet transplantation is a therapeutic approach to prevent diabetes complications. However, the side effects of the required lifelong immunosuppressive regimens to prevent graft rejection restrict the impact of type 1 diabetes. One strategy to overcome these limitations is tolerance induction and graft acceptance through hematopoietic chimerism. In this study we investigated whether tolerance to major histocompatibility complex (MHC) and minor-disparate islet allografts could be induced by minimal nonmyeloablative conditioning and whether more persistent donor-specific islet allografts were accepted if the grafts were implanted with simultaneous bone marrow cells. METHODS: The donor and recipient mice were BALB/c(H-2(b)) and C57BL/6(H-2(d)), respectively. In group 1 streptozotocin-induced diabetic C57BL/6(H-2(d)) mice received only 500 islets of BALB/c(H-2(b)). Group 2 recipients conditioned with antilymphocyte serum, 100 cGy total body irradiation and cyclophosphamide were given islet cells of BALB/c(H-2(b)), but group 3 were simultaneously given 30 x 10(6) BALB/c(H-2(b)) mice BMCs and islet cells similar to group 2. RESULTS: We obtained 5% to 6% allogeneic donor chimerism and 60% graft survival at 80 days after islet transplantation in group 3. We observed lymphocyte infiltration around the islet without destruction of endocrine cells and the presence of strong insulin/glucagon-stained cells in group 3. CONCLUSION: This minimal nonmyeloablative conditioning therapy induced donor chimerism and immune tolerance between MHC- and minor-disparate (BALB/c-->C57BL/6) mice and long-term islet graft survival was obtained through cotransplantation of bone marrow cells. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: We have established a new method for the transplantation of allogeneic pancreatic islets (PIs) using sublethal irradiation (9 Gy) plus simultaneous transplantation of PIs and bone marrow cells (BMCs) via the portal vein (PV) followed by intravenous (i.v.) injection of donor BMCs (9 Gy + PV + i.v.). METHODS: Approximately 600 PIs of Brown Norway (BN: RT1An, RT1Bn) rats were transplanted into the liver of streptozotocin-induced diabetic Fischer 344 (F344: RT1Al, RT1Bl) rats via the PV. BMCs (3x108) of BN rats were injected via the PV or i.v. into the recipients simultaneously. In some groups, additional i.v. injections of BMCs from BN rats were given 5 days after the PI transplantation. RESULTS: All the recipients (10 of 10) in the 9 Gy + PV + i.v. group showed normoglycemia for more than 1 year, whereas PIs were rejected within 30 days after transplantation in the group of 9 Gy + i.v. + i.v. CONCLUSIONS: These results suggest that simultaneous transplantation of PIs and BMCs via the PV is effective in inducing persistent tolerance. 相似文献

Active role of chimerism in transplantation tolerance induced by antilymphocyte serum, sirolimus, and bone-marrow-cell infusion 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
BACKGROUND: A regimen consisting of antilymphocyte serum (ALS), sirolimus, and donor bone-marrow-cell (BMC) infusion induces indefinite skin allograft survival across fully mismatched mouse strain combinations. We investigated the role of chimerism in this transplantation tolerance model. MATERIALS: B10.A (H-2a) mice were treated with ALS on day -1 and 2, sirolimus, and infusion of (C57BL/6xDBA/2)F1 (B6D2F1, H-2(b/d)) BMCs on day 7 relative to DBA/2 (D2) skin grafting on day 0. At postgraft days 30, 50 and 120, the recipient mice were injected intravenously with splenocytes prepared from either naive or D2 mixed chimeric B10.A mice that had been sensitized in vivo to B6. Changes in chimerism and graft survival were monitored. RESULTS: Although D2 skin grafts were rejected with a median survival time of 63.8 days in B10.A mice given ALS and sirolimus alone, they survived more than 200 days in all B10.A mice given ALS, sirolimus, and B6D2F1 BMCs. Chimerism became evident 21 days postgrafting and progressively increased thereafter to 20% at postgraft day 200. Infusion of anti-B6 presensitized cells resulted in depletion of chimeric donor cells and subsequent graft rejection regardless of the timing of injection. Injection of presensitized cells in mice given ALS and sirolimus alone had no effect on graft survival. Injection of presensitized cells that were cytotoxic to alloantigen expressed by BMCs but tolerant to skin reduced, but did not deplete, established chimerism and allowed continued allograft survival. CONCLUSIONS: Chimeric donor cells play a major role in both the early and late phases of transplantation tolerance induced by the ALS, sirolimus, and BMC regimen. 相似文献

BACKGROUND. Induction of donor-specific tolerance to tissue or organ allografts can readily be achieved by administration of allogeneic bone marrow to neonatal rodents; however, in adult recipients induction of transplantation tolerance by this strategy generally requires intensive cytoablative conditioning. Described here is a novel method of promoting transplantation tolerance that involves inoculation of donor bone marrow into the thymus of transiently immunosuppressed adult recipients. METHODS. Prospective Wistar-Furth recipients were inoculated with allogeneic Lewis bone marrow cells (BMCs) either intrathymically or intravenously in conjunction with a single dose of antilymphocyte serum 2 to 3 weeks before receiving donor-strain cardiac allografts. Recipients were monitored for graft survival and examined for presence of hematopoietic chimerism. RESULTS. Intrathymic but not intravenous inoculation of donor BMCs led to permanent survival of donor-strain cardiac allografts, whereas third-party Dark agouti cardiac allografts were rejected promptly. Persistence of donor chimerism was demonstrated in the thymus of Wistar-Furth recipients of intrathymic Lewis BMCs for as long as 3 weeks after BMC inoculation. CONCLUSIONS. Intrathymic inoculation of BMCs concurrently with a single dose of antilymphocyte serum induces donor-specific unresponsiveness to rat cardiac allografts. The unresponsiveness may be the result of deletion or functional inactivation of alloreactive clones maturing in a thymus bearing donor alloantigen. Intrathymic inoculation of BMCs deserves further evaluation as a possible clinical strategy for the induction of transplantation tolerance. 相似文献

Successful allogeneic leg transplantation in rats in conjunction with intra-bone marrow injection of donor bone marrow cells 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10
BACKGROUND: We have recently established a new method for bone marrow transplantation (BMT) in mice: bone marrow cells are directly injected into the intra-bone marrow (IBM) cavity. IBM-BMT induces persistent donor-specific tolerance and enhances the rapid recovery or reconstitution of the hematolymphoid system of donor origin without any signs of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) or graft failure. Furthermore, the prior injection of fludarabine can reduce the irradiation dose to the sublethal level (4.5 Gy x 2). Therefore, we hypothesize that IBM-BMT plus fludarabine is applicable to allogeneic leg transplantation in rats. METHODS: Brown Norway (BN; RT1An) rats were injected intravenously with 50 mg/kg of fludarabine phosphate, followed by sublethal fractionated irradiation (4.5 Gy x 2) 1 day before IBM-BMT. The hind limbs from Fischer 344 (F344; RT1Al) rats were transplanted on day 0, and bone marrow cells (3 x 10(7) cells/50 microL) obtained from the donor F344 rats were injected into the bone marrow cavity of the left tibias of the recipient BN rats. RESULTS: The hematolymphoid cells in the recipient BN rats were completely reconstituted by the cells of the donor F344 rats. The limbs transplanted from the donor F344 rats were accepted for >1 year without any clinical signs of rejection (10 of 10). The lymphocytes of the BN rats showed tolerance to both donor-type and recipient-type major histocompatibility complex determinants in mixed lymphocyte reaction, but showed a significant response to the third-party major histocompatibility complex determinants. CONCLUSIONS: Using a combination of the injection of fludarabine, low-dose irradiation, and IBM-BMT, we have succeeded in allogeneic limb transplantation without using any immunosuppressants after the operation. This strategy would be applicable to the transplantation of other vascularized organs in humans. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Xenotransplantation holds great promise in clinical medicine, but is limited by the vigorous rejection response elicited against solid organs transplanted across species barriers. In this study, we investigated the role of anti-CD40L monoclonal antibody (mAb) in inducing xenogeneic mixed chimerism and donor-specific heart transplantation tolerance. METHODS: One day before heart transplantation, mice were injected intraperitoneally with anti-mouse CD8/NK1.1/Thy1.2 mAbs. On day 0, the mice received 3 Gy total body irradiation (TBI), an intravenous injection of unseparated bone marrow (BM) harvested from F344 rats, and an intraperitoneal injection of hamster antimouse CD40L mAb, MR1. Heart grafts from F344 rats were heterotopically transplanted into the abdomen of B6 mouse recipients. Using flow cytometric analysis of peripheral white blood cells, we assessed donor hematopoiesis at various times after bone marrow transplantation (BMT). RESULTS: Chimerism subsided gradually and disappeared completely 18 weeks after BMT. The cardiac graft survived permanently, even after the mixed chimerism disappeared. To determine if the mice acquired donor-specific tolerance, second rat heart grafts were transplanted 120 days after the first heart transplantation. The second transplanted hearts were also accepted over 60 days. Histological analysis revealed no remarkable vasculopathy in the coronary vessels at any stage. CONCLUSIONS: These findings clearly show that costimulatory blockade plays an important role in inducing xenochimerism, and that transient mixed chimerism can induce permanent acceptance of rat to mouse cardiac xenografts. Transplantation of xenogeneic bone marrow cells under costimulatory blockade at the time of heart transplantation may induce transplantation tolerance. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: We previously demonstrated that even a low dose of bone marrow cells (BMCs) established donor-specific tolerance if mixed with splenocytes (SPLCs). In this study, T-cell subsets CD4 (CD4SP) and CD8 (CD8SP) of donor SPLCs were investigated for their contribution to the enhancement of BMC engraftment leading to donor-specific tolerance in sublethally irradiated mice. METHODS: Sublethally irradiated C57BL/6 recipient mice were intravenously injected BMCs mixing with CD4SP or CD8SP harvested from BALB/c donor mice. The degree of chimerism in the peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBLs) and in the SPLCs was analyzed using FACS, mixed lymphocyte reaction, and skin graft transplantation 3 months after injection. RESULTS: Recipients injected with 3 x 10(6) donor BMCs admixed with 10 x 10(6) donor CD8SP established chimerism. However, recipients injected with the same dose of BMCs admixed with 5 x 10(6) CD4SP, 10 x 10(6) CD4SP, and 5 x 10(6) CD8SP did not established chimerism. CD8SP contained 44% of Ly6A/E (Stem Cell Antigen-1 (Sca-1))-positive cells based on FACS analysis, whereas only 6% of CD4SP were positive for Ly6A/E. MLR supernates of donor SPLCs chimeric mice using admixture with CD8SP dominated by Th2 cytokines. In contrast, mixting with MLR supernates from failed chimera showed dominant Th1 cytokines. CONCLUSIONS: CD8SP seems to make a major contribution to enhance BMC engraftment and induce donor-specific tolerance. Ly6A/E (Sca-1)-positive cells need to be further investigated for their contribution to the establishment of chimerism. 相似文献

Induction of hematopoietic chimerism and subsequent donor-specific immune tolerance via bone marrow transplantation is an ideal approach for islet transplantation to treat type-1 diabetes. We examined the potential of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in the induction of chimerism and islet allograft tolerance without the incidence of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). Streptozotocin-diabetic rats received a conditioning regimen consisting of antilymphocyte serum and 5 Gy total body irradiation, followed by an intraportal co-infusion of allogeneic MSCs, bone marrow cells (BMCs) and islets. Although all the recipients rejected the islets initially, half of them developed stable mixed chimerism and donor-specific immune tolerance, shown by the engraftment of donor skin and second-set islet transplants and acute rejection of a third-party skin. The engraftment of the primary islet allografts with stable chimerism was achieved by the addition of a 2-week peritransplant administration of 15-deoxyspergualin (DSG). Without MSCs, none of the recipients treated with DSG developed chimerism or reversal of diabetes. GVHD was not observed in any of the recipients infused with MSCs (0/15), whereas it occurred in 4/11 recipients without MSCs. These results indicate a potential use of MSCs for induction of hematopoietic chimerism and subsequent immune tolerance in clinical islet transplantation. 相似文献

Allogeneic chimerism established with a mixture of low dose bone marrow cells and splenocytes in sublethally irradiated mice 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
BACKGROUND: Allogeneic chimerism has been established in graft-accepting recipients and the donor cells in the host may act in a major way to facilitate the induction of tolerance. In this study, we examined the effects of allogeneic chimerism after injecting donor bone marrow cells (BMCs) mixed with splenocytes (SPLCs) to the sublethally conditioned recipients. METHODS: In BALB/c(H-2(d)) to B6(H-2(b)) combination, B6 recipients were irradiated at 7.5 Gy and were injected a mixture of donor BMCs and SPLCs intravenously. On day 90 after injection, the degree of chimerism in peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) and in the splenocytes was checked by flow cytometry. RESULTS: In groups which were injected varying BMCs, when > 45 x 10(6) BMCs were injected into B6, a large percentage of donor cells were detected in PBL and in the spleen. In contrast, when < 30 x 10(6) BMCs were injected into B6, only a small percentage of donor cells were detected. In the groups which were injected 3 x 10(6) BMCs with varying SPLCs, when > 10 x 10(6) SPLCs were added, a large percentage of donor cells were detected in PBL and SPLCs, but a small percentage of donor cells were detected with the addition of < 3 x 10(6) SPLCs. A high percentage of chimeric mice showed donor specific tolerance in vitro, mixed lymphocyte responses, and in vivo, skin grafting. In contrast, only a small percentage of chimeric mice showed no donor specific tolerance by skin grafting. CONCLUSION: These findings suggested that even a low dose of BMCs can establish a state of allogeneic chimerism and donor specific tolerance if combined with SPLCs. 相似文献

Robust tolerance to fully allogeneic islet transplants achieved by chimerism with minimal conditioning 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
BACKGROUND: Whether mixed chimeras induced by nonmyeloablative conditioning are tolerant to challenge with donor allogeneic islet grafts is unknown. Here we investigate whether our nonmyeloablative, costimulation blockade-free and sirolimus (SRL)-based protocol could facilitate mixed chimerism via bone marrow transplantation (BMT) and induce islet allograft tolerance. METHODS: After low dose (1-3 Gy) total body irradiation (TBI, day -1), with or without prior lymphocyte depletion, C57BL/6 mice were transfused with 40 x 10(6) BALB/c bone marrow cells (day 0) and received SRL (3 mg/kg/day) for 4 weeks. Chimerism was monitored by flow cytometry and the recipients were rendered diabetic chemically and challenged with donor islets. RESULTS: Mixed chimerism was achieved in mice treated with TBI 3 Gy/SRL but it declined over time in 60% (9/15) of them. Long-term stable chimerism was established in 100% of recipients over 50 weeks with either antilymphocyte serum (ALS, 9/9), anti-CD4 (4/4), or anti-CD4 plus anti-CD8 (5/5) prior to BMT. TBI conditioning could be reduced to 1 Gy, with 90% (9/10) maintaining chimerism in the long-term. When TBI was substituted with cyclophosphamide (CTX) or busulfan (BUS), all mice remained chimeric in the long-term. The chimeras showed no proliferative response to donor antigen and accepted both first and second donor-specific islet grafts indefinitely while rejecting third-party grafts. CONCLUSIONS: This data provides the first evidence that stable fully allogeneic chimeras induced with BMT after nonmyeloablative conditioning with SRL and lymphocyte-depleting antibodies exhibit robust donor-specific tolerance to islet grafts. 相似文献

We have recently demonstrated that mixed xenogeneic chimerism and donor-specific tolerance can be produced across a species barrier using a nonmyeloablative conditioning regimen (1). This regimen involves pretreatment of B10 mice with mAbs against CD4+, CD8+, Thy1+, and NK1+ cells, followed by a low dose (3 Gy) of whole-body irradiation and a higher dose (7 Gy) of local irradiation to the thymus and administration of T cell-depleted (TCD) F344 strain rat BMC. Although initial mixed chimerism and de novo maturation of donor rat T cells can be demonstrated in such animals, chimerism is gradually lost, and is no longer detectable by 6 months following BMT (1). When rat skin was grafted onto such animals 4 months following BMT, however, donor-specific skin graft survival was markedly prolonged, while non-donor type rat skin grafts were rapidly rejected (1). These results suggested that a state of donor-specific T cell tolerance existed, and that loss of chimerism was not due to a T cell-mediated immune mechanism. In order to evaluate the possibility that a humoral mechanism might mediate delayed loss of xenogeneic bone marrow grafts, we have now examined sera at various times for the presence of antibody against donor cells. Groups of animals not receiving the complete tolerizing mAb pretreatment regimen produced antidonor lymphocytotoxic antibody in response to BMT and skin grafting. Flow cytometric studies demonstrated high levels of IgM and of IgG of all subclasses against rat BMC and spleen cells in these control mice immunized by BMT. In contrast, such antibodies were not detectable in sera from animals receiving BMT following pretreatment with the tolerance-inducing mAb regimen. Furthermore, the tolerant animals did not develop cytotoxic antibodies or high levels of IgM or IgG against donor BMC after loss of hematopoietic chimerism. Donor-type skin grafts were eventually rejected, but rejection of these and repeat skin grafts did not lead to a cytotoxic antibody response. Low levels of rat BMC-binding IgM antibody were also detected in sera of tolerant mice, but the intensity of staining of rat BMC was lower than that of control animals receiving conditioning without BMT. These results suggest that a state of tolerance exists among cells responsible for T cell-dependent IgG antibody subclasses and natural IgM antibodies in animals receiving BMT following this nonmyeloablative conditioning regimen. 相似文献

Composite tissue allografts (CTAs) are currently accepted in the clinic; however, long-term immunosuppression is still needed for allograft survival. The presence of donor-specific chimerism may induce tolerance. Thirty-six vascularized bone marrow transplantation (VBMT) allotransplantation were performed across MHC barrier under short-term protocol of 7-day alphabeta-TCRmAb and Cyclosporin A therapy to determine the efficacy of VBMT alone and VBMT augmented with donor bone marrow transplantation (BMT) in chimerism induction. Flow cytometry analysis revealed that VBMT supported with donor BMT directly into the bone resulted in chimerism augmentation and maintenance compared to VBMT. In vivo and in vitro tolerance testing showed prolonged survival of donor skin graft up to 35 days and moderate reactivity in MLR assay that suggests only tolerance induction. Transplantation of vascularized bone without chronic immunosuppression provides a substantial source of bone marrow cells, leading to the development of stable donor-specific chimerism. 相似文献

Anti-CD40L monoclonal antibodies can replace anti-CD4 monoclonal antibodies for the nonmyeloablative induction of mixed xenogeneic chimerism 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
BACKGROUND: We have previously demonstrated that xenogeneic bone marrow engraftment and donor-specific tolerance can be induced in mice receiving anti-CD4, -CD8, -Thy-1.2, and -NK1.1 monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) on Days -6 and -1, 3 Gy total body irradiation (TBI), and 7 Gy thymic irradiation on Day 0, followed by injection of T-cell depleted (TCD) rat bone marrow cells. We have recently demonstrated that anti-CD40L mAb treatment is sufficient to completely overcome CD4 cell-mediated resistance to allogeneic marrow engraftment and rapidly induce CD4 cell tolerance in an allogeneic combination. METHODS: We investigated the ability of anti-CD40L mAb to promote mixed xenogeneic chimerism and donor-specific tolerance in B6 mice receiving anti-CD8, -Thy1.2 and -NK1.1 mAbs and 3 Gy TBI followed by TCD bone marrow transplantation (BMT) from F344 rats. RESULTS: Administration of anti-CD4 mAb in this model could be completely replaced by one injection of anti-CD40L mAb. Evidence for deletional tolerance was obtained in mixed chimeras prepared with this anti-CD40L-based regimen. However, anti-NK1.1 and anti-Thy1.2 mAb could not be replaced by anti-CD40L mAb. CONCLUSIONS: These results demonstrate that anti-CD40L in combination with xenogeneic BMT can tolerize preexisting peripheral and intrathymic CD4 cells to xenoantigens. However, anti-CD40L does not prevent NK cell and/or gammaDelta cell-mediated rejection of xenogeneic bone marrow. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Transplant rejection and toxicity associated with chronic immunosuppressive therapy remain a major problem. Mixed hematopoietic chimerism has been shown to produce tolerance to solid organ transplants. However, currently available protocols to induce mixed hematopoietic chimerism invariably require toxic pre-conditioning. In this study, we investigated a non-toxic CTLA4-Ig-based protocol to induce donor-specific tolerance to cardiac allografts in rats. METHODS: Fully mismatched, 4 to 6 week old ACI (RT1.A(a)) and Wistar Furth (RT1.A(u)) rats were used as cell/organ donors and recipients, respectively. Recipients were treated with CTLA4-Ig 2 mg/kg/day (on days 0, 2, 4, 6, 8), tacrolimus 1 mg/kg/day (daily, from days 0 to 9), and a single dose of anti-lymphocyte serum (10 mg) on day 10, soon after total body irradiation (300 cGy) and donor bone marrow (100 x 10(6) T-cell depleted cells) transplantation (BMT). Six weeks after BMT, chimeric animals received heterotopic heart transplants. RESULTS: Hematopoietic chimerism was 18.8 +/- 10.6% at day 30, and was stable (24 +/- 10%) at 1 year post-BMT; there was no graft versus host disease. Chimeric recipients (RT1.A(u)) permanently accepted (>360 days) donor-specific (RT1.A(a); n = 6) hearts, yet rapidly rejected (<9 days) third-party hearts (RT1.A(l); n = 5). Graft (heart) tolerant (>100 days) recipients accepted donor-specific secondary skin grafts (>200 days) while rejected the third-party skin grafts (<9 days). Lymphocytes of graft tolerant animals demonstrated hyporesponsiveness in mixed lymphocyte cultures in a donor-specific manner. Tolerant graft histology showed no obliterative arteriopathy or chronic rejection. CONCLUSIONS: The CTLA4-Ig based conditioning regimen with donor BMT produced mixed chimerism and induced donor- specific tolerance to cardiac allografts. 相似文献

Chimerism, or the coexistence of tissue elements from more than one genetically different strain or species in an organism, is the only experimental state that results in the induction of donor-specific transplantation tolerance. Transplantation of a mixture of T-cell-depleted syngeneic (host-type) plus T-cell-depleted allogeneic (donor) bone marrow into a normal adult recipient mouse (A + B----A) results in mixed allogeneic chimerism. Recipient mice exhibit donor-specific transplantation tolerance, yet have full immunocompetence to recognize and respond to third-party transplantation antigens. After complete hematolymphopoietic repopulation at 28 days, animals accept a donor-specific skin graft but reject major histocompatibility complex (MHC) locus-disparate third-party grafts. We now report that permanent graft acceptance can also be achieved when the graft is placed at the time of bone marrow transplantation. Histologically, grafts were viable and had only minimal inflammatory changes. This model may have potential future clinical application for the induction of donor-specific transplantation tolerance. 相似文献

Efficacy of donor splenocytes mixed with bone marrow cells for induction of tolerance in sublethally irradiated mice 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
BACKGROUND: High dose of bone marrow cells (BMCs) has been reported to be essential to establish donor-specific tolerance. In clinical settings, a large quantity of BMCs is very difficult to be obtained. Our previous report demonstrated that even a low dose of BMCs could establish donor-specific tolerance if mixed with splenocytes (SPLCs). In the present study, various components of SPLCs were purified or removed and were investigated their contribution for enhancement of bone marrow engraftment leading to donor-specific tolerance in sublethally irradiated mice. METHODS: Sublethally irradiated C57BL/6 recipient mice were intravenously injected 3 x 10(6) BMCs mixed with various components and various numbers of SPLCs harvested from BALB/c donor mice. One week after injection, skin grafting was performed. The degree of chimerism in peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBLs) and in SPLCs was analyzed by FACS 3 months after transplantation. RESULTS: Recipients receiving 3 X 106 BMCs mixed with 10 x 10(6) T cell-enriched SPLCs established chimerism. Recipients receiving BMCs mixed with macrophage-depleted SPLCs also showed chimeirism and donor-specific tolerance. B cell-enriched SPLCs did not help small dose of BMCs to establish chimerism. Irradiated SPLCs were not effective to induce tolerance even with additional infusion to recipients. CONCLUSIONS: Active effects of splenic T cells were more important to help engraftment of small dose of BMCs than B cells, but the interaction between T and B cells might play some roles to enhance BMC engraftment. Splenic macrophages or dendritic cells might have some adverse effects against tolerance induction. Fatal graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) might be avoided by depleting adherent cells from SPLCs, so macrophages or dendritic cells were also considered as key components to induce donor-specific tolerance and prevent GVHD in this model. 相似文献
