OBJECTIVE To investigate the changes of T cell and in an ex vivo study of pig-to-man renal xenotransplantation.
METHODOLOGY Twenty-five pig kidneys and 12 human kidneys(as control)were perfused with human fresh blood in an ex vivo model of pig-to-man renal xenotransplantation.T cells labeled with immunofluorescent McAbs were analyzed by flow cytometer before and after perfusion.
RESULTS In the first minute of xenogenic perfusion,human T cells decreased 52%(from 67.8±3.4 to 32.4±2.1),and the magnitude of T cell decrease lessened there after.No significant change was observed in control group before and after perfusion.
CONCLUSION In this study,it is found that human T cells may play a role in the cell-mediated xenogeneic rejection of pig-to-man renal xenotransplantation possibly by adhering to procine renal endothelial cells during the perfusion.
