Effect of DSA on Vascular Endothelial Cell Injury in NK Cell -Mediated ADCC / 中国实验血液学杂志

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the injury effect of anti-donor specific antibody (DSA) on human umbilical vein enolothelial cells (HUVEC) in NK-mediated antibody-dependent cell cytotoxity (ADCC).@*METHODS@#The peripheral blood of 10 healthy donors was colleced for allo-HSCT of AML patients diagnosed in Department of Hemology of the Tumor Hospital affiliated to Shanxi Medical University, then the peripheral blood NK cells were isolated and used as the effector cells; the HUVEC of passages 9-6 were selected and co-cultured with DSA, then the DSA-binding HUVEC were used as the target cells (CDH group), while the DSA-unbinding HUVEC were used as negative control (UDH group). After co-culture of effecor cells with target cells, the expression of IFN-γ was detected by flow cytometry and the HUVEC activity was detected by using MTT method, so as to indirectily reflect the injury effect of DSA-mediated ADCC on endothelial cells.@*RESULTS@#With the increase of effector-target (ET) ratio, the activity of HUVEC decreased, the expression level of IFN-γ increased. Under the some effector-target ratio (1∶1, 10∶1, 20∶1), the activity of HUVEC in CDH group was significantly lower than that of UDH group, and the expression of IFN-γ was significantly higher than that of the UDH group (P<0.05).@*CONCLUSION@#DSA can damage vascular endothelial cells through the ADCC effect mediated by NK cells.
