A major obstacle to successful organ transplantation in sensitized recipients is antibody-mediated hyperacute rejection. We hypothesized that human recombinant soluble complement receptor type 1 (sCR1), which inhibits activation of the complement cascade at multiple stages, would delay this process. Using a well-established model of hyperacute rejection, 21 Lewis rats each received three successive ACI rat skin grafts which resulted in high serum titers of ACI-specific antibodies. These hypersensitized Lewis rats then received heterotopic ACI cardiac allografts. Immediately prior to allograft reperfusion, sCR1 at 3 mg/kg (n= 11) or an equivalent volume of phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) (n= 10) was administered intravenously. Five minutes following allograft reperfusion, hemolytic complement activity was reduced by 63 ± 2% (SEM) in the sCR1 group vs 25 ± 3% in the PBS group (P< 0.0001, Wilcoxon rank sum test (WRST)). Graft survival in the sCR1 group was prolonged to 32.0 ± 4.47 hr vs 3.25 ± 0.81 hr in the PBS group (P< 0.0001, WRST). Serial histologic examination of allografts showed that sCR1 therapy prevented the early development of luminal platelet thrombi in the allograft coronary vessels. This study demonstrates that a single 3 mg/kg dose of sCR1 significantly prolongs ACI cardiac allograft survival in the hypersensitized Lewis rat recipient. Complement inactivation, mediated by sCR1, may prove useful for transplantation in sensitized recipients.
