描述抗原依赖性和非依赖性过程被认为通过可能相互协同的途径导致进行性肾移植物衰竭。 T淋巴细胞和巨噬细胞的抑制，慢性肾移植功能障碍的肾脏的共同特征，也被认为是在残肾进行性损伤的总体目标，这一建议是调查的作用，细胞介导的免疫在广泛的肾消融诱导的肾损伤的发展。T细胞共刺激信号抑制剂的可用性为我们提供了新的和高度特异性的工具来阐明T细胞和巨噬细胞在慢性进行性肾病发展中的作用。本提案的目的是研究抑制CD 28-B7和CD 40-CD 40 L途径的影响，以确定它们各自对该模型中慢性进行性器官功能障碍发展的贡献。此外，我们计划研究T细胞共刺激途径的贡献，发展肾损伤的背景下，药理学抑制的肾素-血管紧张素系统一旦损伤建立。我们将检验这样的假设，即阻断T细胞共刺激途径除了阻断肾素-血管紧张素系统提供的保护外，还提供肾保护。更好地理解免疫机制在这种肾损伤模型中的作用，最终可能会为未来慢性进行性肾脏和其他器官疾病患者提供更广泛的治疗选择。
英文摘要
DESCRIPTION Both antigen-dependent and independent processes are thought to contribute to progressive renal allograft failure through pathways that may interrelate synergistically. Infiltrates of T lymphocytes and macrophages, common features of kidneys with chronic renal allograft dysfunction, are also seen in the remnant kidney undergoing progressive injury The overall objectives of this proposal are to investigate the role of cell mediated immunity in the development of renal injury induced by extensive renal ablation. The availability of inhibitors of T cell co-stimulatory signals provides us with novel and highly specific tools to elucidate the role of T cells and macrophages in the development of chronic progressive renal disease. The aim of this proposal is to study the effects of inhibition of the CD28-B7 and CD40-CD40L pathways to determine their respective contributions to the development of chronic progressive organ dysfunction in this model. In addition, we plan to study the contribution of the T cell co-stimulatory pathway to the development of renal injury in the context of pharmacological inhibition of the renin-angiotensin system once injury is established. We will test the hypothesis that blockade of the T cell co- stimulatory pathways provides renal protection in addition to that provided by blockade of the renin-angiotensin system. Better understanding of the role of immune mechanisms in this model of renal injury may ultimately lead to broader therapeutic options for patients with chronic progressive renal and other organ diseases in the future.
