Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Studies have confirmed that urine IP-10 and Fractalkine play an important role in acute rejection following organ transplantation.
OBJECTIVE: To investigate early diagnosis and post-treatment expression of urine IP-10 and Fractalkine in the acute rejection after renal transplantation, through detecting the association of the urine IP-10 and Fractalkine variation according to some cases of nephridial tissue biopsy.
METHODS: According to the postoperative clinical manifestation, laboratory examination and renal biopsy histopathological examination results, we divided 106 patients with renal transplantation allograft patients into acute rejection group ( = 16) and the stable group ( = 90). Healthy volunteers were chosen as normal control group (n = 10). IP-10 and Fractalkine concentration changes were measured by double antibody sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent adsorption.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The urine level of IP-10 and Fractalkine in patients with renal transplantation post-operation was significantly higher than pre-operation group. But one week post-operative, the urine level of IP-10 and Fractalkine was declined in the stable group and to preoperative level after 11 days, and acute rejection group continued high expression. IP-10 with first day postoperative and Fractalkine with third day postoperative compared with stable group showed significant difference  (P < 0.05). It is confirmed that to detect the urine levels of IP-10 and Fractalkine in patients with renal transplantation pre-operation and post-operation has certain clinical significance to early diagnose and treat acute rejection.
