BACKGROUND: Donor-specific HLA antibody (DSA) is associated with the risk of allograft loss due to antibody-mediated rejection (ABMR). The majority of de novo DSA after kidney transplantation is directed toward donor HLA-DQ antigens. A HLA-DQ antigen is a heterodimer consisting of an alpha and beta chain. Traditionally, HLA-DQA1 typing has not been part of the pretransplant evaluation. Therefore, DQ alpha proteins are not usually taken into account in the interpretation of HLA-DQ antibody reactions.
METHODS: We hereby present a case of a kidney transplant recipient with 0% pretransplant panel reactive antibody. She received kidney allograft from her husband. Two years after transplantation, she experienced abdominal swelling, and enlargement of transplanted kidney was identified. A biopsy of the allograft kidney demonstrated chronic active ABMR. DSAs were investigated using immunoglobulin G (IgG) and C1q single antigen bead (SAB) assay. HLAMatchmaker analysis was performed to identify eplets that explain the antibody reactivity patterns.
RESULTS: The IgG SAB analysis of a patient's serum at the time of rejection showed positive reactions with all DQ2-carrying beads with mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) > 10000. However, the C1q assay demonstrated strong reaction to only HLA-DQA1∗05:01-DQB1∗02:01-carrying bead with MFI = 22462, whereas weak or no reactions against other HLA-DQ2-carrying beads were found. High-resolution HLA typing revealed that HLA-DQA1∗05:01 and DQB1∗02:01 were mismatched donor antigens. HLAMatchmaker analysis showed that the antibodies were reactive toward 40GR3 eplet on DQA1 and 45GE3 eplet on DQB1.
CONCLUSIONS: This case highlights the clinical significance of antibodies specific to both DQ alpha and DQ beta chains after kidney transplantation.
