Clinical usefulness of 111In-oxine-labeled autologous lymphocytes in kidney-graft rejection. 1985

J Martin-Comin, and M Roca, and J M Griñó, and C Paradell, and A Caralps

A method of lymphocyte labeling with 111In-oxine was applied for the diagnosis of acute kidney-graft rejection. After the injection of labeled lymphocytes, scintigrams of the graft area, contralateral iliac fossa, and spleen were obtained. Indexes of activity were calculated. No patient without rejection (n = 3) showed lymphocyte graft deposition. Twenty-two patients with acute graft rejection and two patients with on abdominal-wall abscess over the graft area showed lymphocyte graft trapping. When acute graft rejection was present, index i (graft/contralateral iliac fossa) increased, and index c (spleen/graft) decreased. The improvement after the rejection crisis occurred parallel to the decrease in index i. Index c remained unchange regardless of rejection evolution. In summary, 111In-oxine-labeled lymphocytes may be used for the diagnosis of acute kidney-graft rejection and for evolving control.

D007204	Indium	A metallic element, atomic number 49, atomic weight 114.818, symbol In. It is named from its blue line in the spectrum.
D007668	Kidney	Body organ that filters blood for the secretion of URINE and that regulates ion concentrations.	Kidneys
D008214	Lymphocytes	White blood cells formed in the body's lymphoid tissue. The nucleus is round or ovoid with coarse, irregularly clumped chromatin while the cytoplasm is typically pale blue with azurophilic (if any) granules. Most lymphocytes can be classified as either T or B (with subpopulations of each), or NATURAL KILLER CELLS.	Lymphoid Cells,Cell, Lymphoid,Cells, Lymphoid,Lymphocyte,Lymphoid Cell

D011877	Radionuclide Imaging	The production of an image obtained by cameras that detect the radioactive emissions of an injected radionuclide as it has distributed differentially throughout tissues in the body. The image obtained from a moving detector is called a scan, while the image obtained from a stationary camera device is called a scintiphotograph.
