Pretransplant sera of 474 kidney graft recipients were tested for IgG-anti-F(ab')2 gamma activity. The patients had significantly higher IgG-anti-F(ab')2 gamma activity than healthy controls (P = 0.0004). Serum lymphocytotoxic antibodies were correlated with IgG-anti-F(ab')2 gamma (P = 0.004), whereas CMV infection and blood transfusions were not. We found a significant association between pretransplant IgG-anti-F(ab')2 gamma activity and early and 1-year kidney graft outcome. This association was pronounced in recipients with no lymphocytotoxic antibodies. Recipients with immediately functioning grafts and a creatinine < 130 mumol/L at 1 year had strikingly higher pretransplant IgG-anti-F(ab')2 gamma activity than patients with graft failure (P < 0.0001).

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007140 Immunoglobulin Fab Fragments Univalent antigen-binding fragments composed of one entire IMMUNOGLOBULIN LIGHT CHAIN and the amino terminal end of one of the IMMUNOGLOBULIN HEAVY CHAINS from the hinge region, linked to each other by disulfide bonds. Fab contains the IMMUNOGLOBULIN VARIABLE REGIONS, which are part of the antigen-binding site, and the first IMMUNOGLOBULIN CONSTANT REGIONS. This fragment can be obtained by digestion of immunoglobulins with the proteolytic enzyme PAPAIN.
