Enhanced production of interferon-gamma by T lymphocytes cloned from rejected kidney grafts.

Seventy-seven T cell clones were generated from cell blasts infiltrating rejected kidney allografts. All clones, either CD4 or CD8, displayed cytolytic activity evaluated by lectin-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (LDCC) and natural killer activities. Furthermore, both types of clones were able to produce IFN-gamma following PHA stimulation. These data suggest that the graft infiltrate is characterized by T cell clones with cytolytic potential responsible for the killing of graft cells. The production of IFN-gamma, enhancing the class II MHC expression, may amplify the recipient immune response.

[Surgical technique aspects in multiorgan transplantation: personal experience].

The Authors report their experience with multiorgan transplantation performed in 3 patients affected by multifocal cancer of the liver, either primitive (2 cases) or secondary (1 case). The rationale for this new approach was the unfeasible single liver transplantation taking into account the extracapsular diffusion of the neoplasia.
