Heme oxygenases in pregnancy II: HO-2 is downregulated in human pathologic pregnancies

PROBLEM: We previously reported a diminished expression of the heme-degrading enzymes heme oxygenases (HO)-1 and HO-2 in decidua and placenta from mice undergoing Th1-mediated abortion, strongly indicating the protective effect of HO in murine pregnancy maintenance. Here we investigated whether the expression of HO-1 and HO-2 is also reduced at the feto-maternal interface of pathologic human pregnancies. METHOD OF STUDY: Immunohistochemistry was used to detect HOs expression in placental and decidual first-trimester tissue from patients with: spontaneous abortion (n = 14), choriocarcinoma (n = 14), hydatidiform mole (H-mole) (n = 12), compared with normally progressing pregnancies (n = 15). Further, we investigated early third-trimester decidual and placental tissue from patients with pre-eclampsia (n = 13) compared with fetal growth retardation (n = 14) as age-matched controls. RESULTS: In first trimester tissue, we observed a significant reduction of HO-2 expression in invasive trophoblast cells, endothelial cells, and syncytiotrophoblasts in samples from patients with spontaneous abortion compared with normal pregnancy. H-mole samples showed a diminished expression of HO-2 in invasive trophoblast cells and endothelial cells in comparison with NP, whereas choriocarcinoma samples showed no significant differences compared with the control. In third trimester tissue, HO-2 was also reduced in syncytiotrophoblasts and invasive trophoblast cells from pre-eclampsia compared with samples from fetal growth retardation. HO-1 expression was diminished in all pathologies investigated; however, the differences did not reach levels of significance. CONCLUSIONS: Our data indicate that HOs play a crucial role in pregnancy and low expression of HO-2, as observed in pathologic pregnancies, may lead to enhanced levels of free heme at the feto-maternal interface, with subsequent upregulation of adhesion molecules, allowing enhanced inflammatory cells migration to the feto-maternal interface.     

新免疫抑制剂雷帕霉素抗移植排斥作用的实验研究

作者研究了雷帕霉素（rapamycin;RPM）对C57BL/6J→BALB/c小鼠心肌和皮肤移植的抗移植排斥作用,结果表明 RPM比目前应用于临床器官移植的环孢菌素（Cyclosporine A;CsA）具有更好的抗移植排斥作用。此外还观察了 RPM对正在进行的移植心肌排斥反应的作用,RPM于小鼠心肌移植后第 7天开始给药与0天开始给药组相比较,移植心肌的平均存活天数无明显差异,表明RPM对心肌移植排斥反应有很好的治疗作用。小剂量的RPM与亚治疗剂量的CsA合用还有很好的协同作用。

CD40靶向小干扰RNA抑制大鼠异体肢体移植急性排斥反应后细胞凋亡及P53、P21表达

目的探讨CD40靶向小干扰RNA（即短发夹RNA，shRNA）对大鼠异体肢体移植急性排斥反应及细胞凋亡的影响。方法以纯系SD大鼠为供体，纯系Wistar大鼠为受体，行同种异体右后肢移植。27只大鼠肢体移植后随机分为3组：实验组．注射梭华一Sofast（15μl）-siCD40—2，pSilencer（100μg）载体复合物600μl；空载体对照组，在肢体移植后，即注射Sofast（15μl）-pSilencer4．1-CMVneo（100μg）空载体复合物600μl；生理盐水对照组，在肢体移植注射生理盐水600μl。观察移植物排斥反应征象及存活情况，并于第7天对产生免疫耐受大鼠进行混合淋巴细胞反应（MLR），同时进行组织学检查。结果与其他组相比．实验组移植物发生排斥反应的时间及存活时间均显著延长（P〈0．01）（〉13d），未见排斥反应征象，其他组均于术后近期发生排斥反应；实验组大鼠对供体的淋巴细胞呈现低反应性，移植的供体同系大鼠的肢体得以存活。实验组移植物细胞凋亡率低于其他组。结论在术后不应用免疫抑制剂的情况下，CD40靶向的shRNA干扰可以抗大鼠异体肢体移植急性排斥反应。     

高PRA介导肾移植后延迟性超急排斥反应

目的：了解HLA-A、B、DR、DQ表现型为纯合子的终末期肾脏疾病患者的PRA水平,并研究其与肾移植预后的关系。方法：对2006年8月至2007年8月间在我院登记等待首次肾移植的438例终末期肾脏疾病患者HLA、PRA情况以及其中1例PRA65的HLA纯合子患者肾移植效果进行分析。HLA基因分型采用PCR-SSP技术,PRA、抗体强度及抗体特异性分析采用ELISA技术,数据统计采用SPSS11.5统计软件。结果：438例患者中有HLA纯合子12例,杂合子426例;12例纯合子中PRA阳性者6例,阳性率50,平均HLA抗体强度为55,广泛致敏率达100;426例杂合子中PRA阳性者65例,阳性率15.26,平均HLA抗体强度为28,广泛致敏率为40;纯合子与杂合子之间的PRA阳性率、平均HLA抗体强度和广泛致敏率相比差异均有统计学意义（P〈0.05）,纯合子高PRA的风险大（OR=5.29,95CI：1.67～16.70）;1例PRA65的纯合子患者术前经血浆置换、蛋白免疫吸附、静滴丙种球蛋白治疗使PRA降低至阴性,在舒莱免疫诱导下行尸体肾移植术,供受者HLA抗原2个错配,术后移植肾功能逐渐恢复,第3天开始PRA呈阳性并逐渐升高,伴随临床逐渐出现尿少、血压升高、移植肾区疼痛等排斥反应征象,血清肌酐逐渐升高,移植肾B超见动脉阻力指数逐渐升高,提示急性排斥反应,采用术前有效清除HLA抗体的所有方法再次治疗无效,于术后第36天因移植物失功行移植肾切除。结论：HLA纯合子产生高PRA的风险大;文中1例PRA阳性的HLA纯合子早期移植肾功能恢复随后出现不可逆排斥反应致移植肾失功的情况,提示近年来随着各种有效清除HLA抗体的治疗方法不断用于临床导致了抗体介导的延迟性超急排斥反应（AMDR）的出现从而使移植肾失功;高PRA患者行肾移植术需高度慎重,应尽可能避开受者PRA峰值时的全部抗体谱来选择供体。     

The histological changes in transbronchial biopsy after treatment of acute lung rejection in heart-lung transplants

Transbronchial lung biopsies taken during episodes of acute lung rejection in heart-lung transplant patients were examined histologically. When the diagnosis was confirmed by microscopy, the patients were treated with augmented immunosuppression by high-dose corticosteroids. A second biopsy was obtained an average of 23.5 days after commencement of treatment. These biopsies were examined to determine the histological changes caused by treatment. In most cases, there were both quantitative and morphological differences between the infiltrates in acute rejection and in the remaining perivascular infiltrates after treatment. In acute rejection, 26 of 28 biopsies contained perivascular lymphocytic infiltrates, lymphocytes being large and blast-like. Although 20 of 28 follow-up biopsies still contained perivascular infiltrates, they were smaller and the lymphocytes smaller in size. Half the biopsies in rejection contained neutrophils, but less than half contained eosinophils in the perivascular infiltrates. After treatment, all these cells were less numerous. Another feature of treated rejection was the presence of haemosiderin around vessels suggesting earlier acute vascular injury. However, haemosiderin persists long after the cellular infiltrate has disappeared and cannot be considered a reliable feature of recently treated acute lung rejection. The bronchiolar infiltrates showed a similar pattern of responses to the perivascular infiltrates.     

纳曲酮对移植排异反应的抑制作用

以小鼠心肌组织异位移植和混合淋巴细胞反应为整体和离体模型，观察了阿片受体阻断剂纳曲酮对移植排异反应的影响。结果显示：给动物从术前开始腹腔注射纳曲酮共１０天（每日二次，每次５ｍｇ／ｋｇ）可明显延长移植心肌组织的存活时间；加入纳曲酮（１０－４～１０－８ｍｏｌ／Ｌ）对混合淋巴细胞反应有抑制作用并呈量效关系。同时还观察到，给正常小鼠腹腔注射纳曲酮３天以上，可引起动物脾细胞由ＣｏｎＡ诱导的淋巴细胞转化反应受抑制。以上结果说明纳曲酮可抑制移植排异反应，此作用有可能是通过阻断内源性阿片肽所致。

The emerging role of immunoregulation of fibrinogen-related procoagulant Fgl2 in the success or spontaneous abortion of early pregnancy in mice and humans.

PROBLEM: Abortion of chromosomally normal embryos in the CBA X DBA/2 mating combination is triggered by release of Th1 cytokines (tumor necrosis factor [TNF]-alpha, interferon [IFN]-gamma, and interleukin [IL]-1), which cause abortion via a novel prothrombinase, Fgl2, and polymorphonuclear leukocytes. The site of activation may be maternal vascular endothelium on arteries and veins nourishing the placenta. Activation of coagulation is also prominent in spontaneous abortion of chromosomally normal human embryos. We asked where is Fgl2 up-regulated in the uterus in murine abortions, and if similar Fgl2 expression occurs in human pregnancy failure. METHODS: Control CBA X DBA/2 pregnant mice, or from mice injected with TNF-alpha + IFN-gamma on day 7.5 of gestation, were removed on day 8.5, fixed, sectioned, and subject to in situ hybridization for Fgl2. Sections were also stained for fibrin. Elective first trimester termination samples or biopsies taken early in the course of a recurrent miscarriage were similarly fixed, sectioned, and analyzed by in situ hybridization. Control and cytokine-treated mice were anticoagulated with heparin, an activator of antithrombin III, and/or the direct anti-thrombin inhibitor hirudin. RESULTS: Low level Fgl2 expression localized to basal decidua remote from the embryo was noted in control mice; cytokine treatment, which causes greater than 80% of abortions, produced a striking up-regulation in this area as well as in a band at the junction of decidua and myometrium. Trophoblast also became strikingly positive. Fgl2 expression was associated with increased fibrin staining. Anticoagulation significantly protected against abortions, but doses were limited by the complication of retroplacental hemorrhage. In tissue from normal first trimester pregnancy, minimal Fgl2 positivity was seen in some villous syncytiotrophoblast, in villous stroma, cytotrophoblast, and in some cells in decidua. In spontaneous abortion of normal embryo, striking Fgl2 positivity was seen in syncytiotrophoblast and extravillous cytotrophoblast, in association with areas of thrombus formation. CONCLUSIONS: Fgl2 appears to be physiologically expressed and may protect against the internal danger of maternal and/or fetal bleeding during pregnancy and at parturition; a role in inhibiting transplacental traffic is also possible. External dangers in the form of stress, endotoxin, and antigens eliciting Th1 cytokine responses upregulate Fgl2 prothrombinase in trophoblast as well as in decidua, which results in spontaneous abortion of immunogenetically "weaker" embryos.
