儿童肝移植免疫耐受的研究进展

Research progress on immune tolerance after pediatric liver transplantation

  • 摘要: 肝移植术后免疫耐受是指在肝移植受者中通过各种方式停用免疫抑制剂,且受者肝功能长期维持稳定。目前,实现免疫耐受的方法包括被动免疫耐受、主动操作性免疫耐受和诱导性免疫耐受,多项临床试验证明了其安全性和可行性。相比成人,儿童肝移植受者具有更好的免疫耐受潜质,特别是活体肝移植受者,但预测个体能否达到免疫耐受仍是一大挑战。本文总结了儿童受者免疫耐受的特点、免疫耐受的诱导、操作性免疫耐受、诱导性免疫耐受及受者筛选与耐受标志物的相关研究进展,以期为儿童肝移植术后免疫抑制剂方案的制定提供参考,从而降低患儿的免疫抑制剂总体暴露量,减少免疫抑制剂相关不良反应。

     

    Abstract: Immune tolerance after liver transplantation refers to discontinuing use of immunosuppressants in varying patterns and maintaining the long-term stability of liver function of the recipients. At present, immune tolerance may be achieved by passive immune tolerance, active operational immune tolerance and induced immune tolerance. Multiple clinical trials have confirmed the safety and feasibility of these approaches. Compared with adults, pediatric recipients undergoing liver transplantation have better potential of immune tolerance, especially the living donor liver transplant recipients. Nevertheless, it remains a challenge to predict whether a certain individual may achieve immune tolerance. In this article, research progresses on the characteristics of immune tolerance in pediatric recipients, induction of immune tolerance, operational immune tolerance, induced immune tolerance, screening of recipients and tolerance markers were reviewed, aiming to provide reference for the formulation of postoperative immunosuppressant regimens, reduce the overall exposure to immunosuppressants and lower the risk of adverse reactions induced by immunosuppressants in children undergoing liver transplantation.
