Human leukocyte antigen and donor-specific antibodies in liver transplantation.
World J Gastroenterol

Senior Department of Hematology, The Fifth Medical Center of PLA General Hospital, Beijing 100071, China.
In this article, we comment on an article published in a recent issue of the . We specifically focus on the roles of human leukocyte antigen (HLA) and donor-specific antibodies (DSAs) in pediatric liver transplantation (LT), as well as the relationship between immune rejection after LT and DSA. Currently, LT remains the standard of care for pediatric patients with end-stage liver disease or severe acute liver failure.

Chanarin-Dorfman syndrome is a multisystem inherited metabolic disorder characterized by congenital ichthyosis and lipid droplet accumulation in various organs, including the liver, muscles, and skin. The accumulation of lipids in the liver can lead to cirrhosis, liver failure, and even hepatocellular carcinoma. Here, we present a 17-year-old girl who underwent a deceased donor liver transplant to treat uncompensated cirrhosis due to Chanarin-Dorfman syndrome.

Marginal liver grafts, such as those from cardiac death donors and donors with steatotic organs, are highly vulnerable to ischemia-reperfusion injury. In addition, ex situ graft alteration, either by reduction or splitting, will prolong the static cold storage time and amplify the ischemia-reperfusion injury. Hypothermic oxygenated machine perfusion has the potential to end the oxygen deprivation during preservation and accordingly improve outcomes in some marginal grafts that have been traditionally discarded.

Exp Clin Transplant
December 2024
>From the Department of Pulmonary Diseases, Başkent University, Faculty of Medicine, Ankara, Turkey.
Objectives: Respiratory tract infections are commonly seen and compose a great burden on health care. The causing pathogens might be either bacteria or viruses. Because treatment is different for each, prompt diagnosis and early treatment are crucial, especially in immunocompromised patients like solid-organ transplant recipients who often present with obscure findings.
