ABSTRACT
Objective To study the relationship between the expression of ICAM-1,HLA-DR in the renal allograft of chronic rejection. Methods The expression of ICAM-1 and HLA-DR was assessed in 20 cadaveric renal allografts with chronic rejection using immunohistological techniqu(ABC method). Results In the renal allograft with chronic rejection,the expression of ICAM-1 was increased on the tubular epithelial cells and interstitial microvascullar endothelium,whereas the expression of HLA-DR was up-regulated,especially on the distal tubules. In addition, the expression of ICAM-1 and HLA-DR was associated with lymphcytes infiltration in the local perivascullar and intertubular structure. Conclusions It is suggested that the increased ICAM-1 and HLA-DR expressions might mediate allograft injury and have a role in the augmentation of the response,either in its induction,especially in the interstitial lymphocytes infiltration and antigen presenting or as a target for the effector arm of the reaction.
