Increased Soluble Flt-1 Correlates With Delayed Graft Function and Early Loss of Peritubular Capillaries in the Kidney Graft

Résumé

Background. Ischemia-reperfusion induces tubular and endothelial damage in the renal graft and leads to delayed graft function (DGF) and to an early loss of peritubular capillaries (PTC). Few, if any, clinical studies have assessed the impact of proangiogenic and antiangiogenic factors on endothelial repair during renal transplantation (RT)Yrelated ischemia-reperfusion. Methods. We prospectively assessed the kinetics of the antiangiogenic factor soluble Fms-like tyrosine kinase-1 (sFlt-1) in 136 consecutive RT patients and analyzed sFlt-1 impact on DGF and PTC loss. Results. sFlt-1 plasma levels increased by twofold to threefold throughout the first week after RT. This increase was more marked in recipients of grafts from deceased donors compared with living donors. Patients with DGF had higher sFlt-1 levels at all time points during the first 7 days after RT and a higher peak sFlt-1 compared with those without DGF. In multivariate analysis, a peak plasma sFlt-1 of 250 pg/mL or higher was associated with 2.5-fold increase in the risk of DGF (P=0.04). Similarly, patients with a peak plasma sFlt-1 of 250 pg/mL or higher had a more pronounced early decrease in PTC compared with those with a peak sFlt-1 less than 250 pg/mL. Conclusions. sFlt-1 is a new nonimmunologic independent risk factor for DGF and PTC loss. Its inhibition may help improve the outcome of RT.
