Non-HLA antibodies including angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1R) may also play a role in AMR, impact graft function and survival. Data is limited in paediatric KT cohorts. We aimed to assess the prevalence and effect of pre-transplant AT1R antibodies on rejection, graft function and survival in paediatric KT recipients. This was a retrospective cohort study conducted across two paediatric centres including KT recipients with a pre-transplant AT1R antibody level. Outcomes included rejection, de novo DSA formation, graft function, failure, proteinuria and hypertension. Of 71 individuals, 72% recorded a positive pre-transplant AT1R Ab level (≥17 U/mL). Over a median follow-up of 4.7 years, AT1R Ab positivity demonstrated a trend towards increased risk of rejection however was not statistically significant (HR 3.45, 95% CI 0.97–12.35, <i>p</i>-value 0.06). Sensitivity analysis with AT1R Ab levels of ≥25 U/mL (HR 2.05 95% CI 0.78–5.39, <i>p</i>-value 0.14) and ≥40 U/mL (HR 1.32, CI 95% 0.55–3.17, <i>p</i>-value 0.53) validated this. De novo DSA formation occurred more frequently with AT1R Ab positivity (41% vs. 20%, <i>p</i>-value 0.9). AT1R Ab was not associated with hypertension, proteinuria, graft failure or dysfunction. In conclusion, this cohort study demonstrated a high prevalence of pre-transplant AT1R Ab positivity (72%). AT1R Ab positivity demonstrated a trend towards increased risk of rejection and de novo DSA formation however did not meet statistical significance. There was no association between AT1R Ab and hypertension, proteinuria, graft failure or dysfunction.</p>","PeriodicalId":13172,"journal":{"name":"HLA","volume":"104 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.9,"publicationDate":"2024-09-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/tan.15649","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142153891","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Traditional cPRA methods focus on a limited number of HLA loci using physical cytotoxicity tests. However, advancements such as the Luminex single antigen (LSA) assay, which uses mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) of individualised HLA antigens for antibody evaluation, provide a foundation for a more precise assessment. We developed cPRAdictor, a novel cPRA calculation tool using a large series of HLA-type individuals in France with NGS. cPRAdictor was applied to a cohort of 5962 kidney transplant candidates in Paris. We analysed how extending the range of HLA specificities could affect cPRA values. Implementing cPRAdictor revealed and allowed quantification of the significant discrepancies in cPRA values that appeared when HLA loci C and DP, and antigen-specific antibodies were taken into account. Notably, over 43% of the immunised transplant candidates showed an increase in calculated cPRA values when considering C/DP loci and antigen-specific antibodies, negatively impacting their eligibility and prioritisation in the transplantation programme. These findings highlight the necessity of revisiting cPRA calculation methodologies to include a broader spectrum of immunological data, as more exhaustive and precise information regarding anti-HLA antibodies in patients' sera and donor and recipient HLA typing are available prospectively. This will strongly improve both accuracy and equity at the organ allocation step, especially for highly sensitised candidates for whom organ offers are very limited in number.</p>","PeriodicalId":13172,"journal":{"name":"HLA","volume":"104 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.9,"publicationDate":"2024-09-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/tan.15675","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142153892","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
