This study aims to reveal the relationship between regulatory B cell (Breg) subsets and chronic-active antibody-mediated rejection (c-aABMR) in renal transplant recipients. Our study involved 3 groups of participants: renal transplant recipients with biopsy-proven c-aABMR as the chronic rejection group (c-aABMR, n = 23), recipients with stable graft functions as the patient control group (PC; n = 11), and healthy volunteers (HV; n = 11). Breg subsets, immature/transitional B cells, plasmablastic cells, B10 cells, and BR1 cells were isolated from venous blood samples by flow cytometry. The median values of Breg frequencies in the total lymphocyte population were analyzed. There were no significant differences between the study groups for immature and/or transitional B cell frequencies. Plasmablastic cell frequencies of the c-aABMR group (7.80 [2.10-27.40]) and the PC group (6.00 [1.80-55.50]) were similar, but both of these values were significantly higher than the HVs' (3.40 [1.20-8.50]), (respectively, P = .005 and P = .039). B10 cell frequencies were also similar, comparing the c-aABMR (4.20 [0.10-7.40]) and the PC groups (4.10 [0.10-5.90]), whereas the HVs (5.90 [2.90-8.50]) had the highest B10 cell frequency with an only statistical significance against the PC group (respectively, P = .09 and P = .028). The c-aABMR and the PC groups were similar regarding BR1 cell frequencies. However, the HV group significantly had the highest frequency of BR1 cells (5.50 [2.80-10.80]) than the other groups (P < .001 for both). We demonstrated that frequencies of B10 and BR1 cells were higher in HVs than in transplant recipients, regardless of rejection state. However, there was no significant relation between Breg frequencies and the c-aABMR state.
