In this study, the investigators will establish a workflow to generate unique patterns of the donor-reactive T cell repertoire using mixed lymphocyte reactions to select alloreactive T cell clones prior to transplantation Tissue infiltrating as well as blood bound T cells will be characterized based on:
Kidney transplant recipients receiving a non lymphodepletional induction therapy at the investigators center will be included in this study.
Alloreactive T cells are defined prior to transplantation via a mixed lymphocyte reaction of donor and recipient PBMC's.
Following transplantation PBMC's will be sampled at management (3 and 12 months) and for-cause biopsies and fifteen patients with histological proven acute T cell mediated rejection will be compared to 15 patients without histopathological signs of alloimmune response in time matched for-cause biopsies.
T cell receptor beta chains of T cells found in the circulation and the allograft biopsy will be sequenced via Next generation sequencing.
Abundance of alloreactive T cells of the overall repertoire pre-and post-transplant and their presence in the allograft will be assessed.
The diversity of the overall repertoire and alloreactive repertoire will be compared between these two groups.
