    Notizen: Abstract A newly developed liver/small bowel transplantation model (LSBTx) was used to investigate the tolerogenic effect of a liver allograft toward a simultaneously transplanted small bowel. Small bowel transplantation (SBTx) under high-dose immunosuppression was compared to LSBTx with a lower FK506 dosage. Syngeneic Lewis [(LEW) to LEW] and two fully allogeneic rat strain combinations (Brown Norway-to-LEW and Dark Agouti-to-LEW) were used. Clinical course and histological findings after SBTx demonstrated a chronic rejection of the small bowel allograft within 100 days. However, after LSBTx long-term acceptance (〉 150 days) was achieved after a transient rejection crisis, although initial immunosuppression was significantly lower. Furthermore, indicator heart transplantations demonstrated the induction of donor-specific tolerance in both allogeneic strain combinations. In contrast to other LSBTx rat models, these results reflect observations after human LSBTx, in which the rate of acute and chronic rejection is also significantly lower than after human SBTx.

    Notizen: Abstract Long-term graft acceptance and tolerance induction after allogeneic rat liver transplantation are well described. However, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. In this study we investigated the cellular events within the liver graft during initial immunosuppression and long-term acceptance. Orthotopic liver transplantation was performed in the Dark Agouti (DA)-to-Lewis (LEW) and LEW-to-DA rat strain combination. In order to achieve long-term acceptance, LEW recipients of DA livers were treated with two different short-term therapies. Non-parenchymal cells (NPC) were isolated from liver allografts on days + 10 and + 100 after transplantation and donor-specific leukocytes were immunophenotyped by flow cytometry. Both the monotherapy and triple therapy prolonged graft survival (〉 100 days). Liver allografts from LEW donors into DA recipients were spontaneously accepted across a complete MHC mismatch without immunosuppression. Liver allograft rejection was induced by infiltrating alloreactive immunocompetent cells. But the intensities of cell infiltration in the early and late phases after transplantation did not correlate with eventual outcome. Donor-specific NPC decreased to 18–25 % on day + 10 in both therapeutic groups, but had rebounded to up to 40 % by day + 100. Recurrence of donor-specific cells was caused almost exclusively by rising T cell counts. The persistence of dendritic cells in the late phase after transplantation could be clearly demonstrated. Repopulation by donor-specific T lymphocytes was observed in long-term accepted liver grafts. This recurrence may be based on the differentiation of liver-derived progenitor cells. The persistent coexistence of donor and recipient cells within the liver allograft (intrahepatic chimerism) appears to be characteristic and may be important for long-term acceptance.

    Notizen: Abstract Spontaneous tolerance induction after liver transplantation also supports additional transplants, e. g. a small bowel graft, from the same donor (tolerogenic effect). Chimerism serves as a possible explanation of this phenomenon. Isolated liver (LTx) and combined liver/small bowel transplantation (LSBTx) are compared. LSBTx and LTx were performed in the BN → LEW rat strain combination without immunosuppression. Parenchymal damage during rejection was monitored by sequential standard histology. Donor/recipient populations were identified and further differentiated for immunhistochemical single and double staining. A small number of donor specific leukocytes can be detected on all days in host organs (microchimerism). A significantly larger donor leukocyte population survives long-term in the sinusoids of liver (graft chimerism). Sinusoidal donor leukocytes survive rejection and recover in number after tolerance induction. Rejection of liver allografts and infiltration by host leukocytes are more pronounced after LSBTx than after LTx. Accordingly, during rejection a steeper decline of sinusoidal donor leukocytes is observed after LSBTx and recovery after tolerance induction is not as marked. Microchimerism apparently plays no significant role in either transplantation model. The number of sinusoidal donor leukocytes, however, mirrors closely host immune responses.

    Notizen: Abstract The predictive value of chimerism was evaluated in three different transplantation models in the rat without immunosuppression: small bowel- (SBTx), liver- (LTx), and liver/small bowel transplantation (LSBTx) were performed in the Brown Norway (BN)-to-Lewis- (LEW) strain combination. Immunohistochemistry and flow cytometry were used to identify donor cells in the recipient's spleen. Their number did not change significantly during transient rejection or tolerance after LTx and LSBTx. However, the amount of donor-derived nonparenchymal cells within the liver allograft including antigen-presenting cells (APCs), such as dendritic and Kupffer cells, clearly mirrored the recipient's immune status: as expected, their number decreased during rejection, but recovered considerably during and after tolerance induction. We conclude that donor cells in the periphery of the recipient correlate with the presence of the allograft, but do not seem to influence graft acceptance actively. However, the kinetics of the detected donor APC population in the liver suggests their important role in modifying the recipient's immune response towards tolerance.

    Beschreibung / Inhaltsverzeichnis: Zusammenfassung Wir berichten über eine 23jährige Patientin mit einem seit 5 Jahren bekannten Gardner-Syndrom, die ein bifokales, papilläres Schilddrüsenkarzinom entwickelte. Bei diesem kombinierten Vorliegen einer Polyposis coli mit einem Schilddrüsenmalignom handelt es sich um eine seltene, aber beschriebene Assoziation. Typischerweise liegt histologisch ein multifokaler, papillärer Tumor mit überwiegend guter Prognose vor. Betroffen sind fast ausschließlich Frauen der 2. Lebensdekade. Die Schilddrüsenmanifestation kann der Diagnose einer familiären Polyposis vorausgehen. Bei Patienten mit einer Polyposis coli sollte daher eine konsequente, routinemäßige, klinische Schilddrüsenkontrolle erfolgen, damit bei Verdacht auf das Vorliegen eines Malignoms unverzüglich eine nuklearmedizinische Abklärung, ggf. mit Punktion suspekter Befunde, durchgeführt werden kann. Kann ein Karzinom gesichert werden, u.U. durch eine intraoperative Schnellschnittdiagnostik, sollte— wegen der häufig angetroffenen Multizentrizität dieser Malignome— therapeutisch eine totale Thyreoidektomie mit Ausräumung der zentralen Lymphknotenkompartimente durchgeführt werden.
    Notizen: Abstract We report on the case of a 23-year-old female with a 5-year history of Gardner's syndrome, who developed a bifocal, papillary carcinoma of the thyroid. The combination of familial adenomatous polyposis with a thyroid cancer is a rare but well-documented association. Typically, histology reveals a multifocal, papillary tumour with a predominantly good prognosis. This type of carcinoma is almost exclusively confined to females in their second decade of life, and it may, in fact, precede the onset of the polyposis manifestation. Patients suffering from familial adenomatous polyposis should therefore undergo regular clinical examination of the thyroid gland. If a neoplastic lesion is suspected, immediate scintigraphic evaluation should be carried out, with fine-needle aspiration of equivocal foci if necessary, and/or intraoperative frozen section. When a carcinoma is found, total thyroidectomy with dissection of the central lymph compartments should be considered the treatment of choice because of the high likelihood of the tumour being multicentric.
