Long-term kidney transplant (KT) survival has remained relatively stagnant. Protocol biopsy studies suggest that glomerulosclerosis is a significant contributor to long-term graft failure. We previously demonstrated that podocyte loss in the 1styear post-transplantation predicted long-term allograft survival. However, whether increased podocyte loss continues over the lifespan of a KT remains unclear. We performed a cross-sectional analysis of 1,182 urine samples from 260 KT recipients up to 19-years after transplantation. Urine pellet mRNAs were assayed for podocyte (NPHS2/podocin and nephrin/NPHS1), distal tubule (aquaporin2), and profibrotic cytokine (TGFbeta1). Multivariable generalized estimating equations were used to obtain “population-averaged” effects for these markers over time post-KT. Consistent with early stresses both podocyte and tubular markers increased immediately post-KT. However, only podocyte markers continued to increase long-term. A role for hypertrophic stresses in driving podocyte loss over time is implied by their association with donor BMI, recipient BMI and donor-recipient BMI mismatch at transplantation. Furthermore, urine pellet podocin mRNA was associated with urine TGFbeta1, proteinuria and reduced eGFR, thereby linking podocyte injury to allograft fibrosis and survival. In conclusion we observed that podocyte loss continues long-term post-KT suggesting an important role in driving late graft loss.
