N2 - Application of mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) has been proposed for solid organ transplantation based on their potent immuno-modulatory effects in vitro and in vivo. We investigated the potential of MSCs to improve acceptance of kidney transplants in an MHC-incompatible rat model including isogeneic kidney transplantation (RTx) as control. MSCs were administered i.v. or i.a. at time of transplantation. No immunosuppression was applied. Renal function was monitored by serum-creatinine, histopathology, immunochemistry for graft infiltrating cells and expressions of inflammatory genes. We demonstrated the short-term beneficial effects of MSC injection. In the long term, however, MSC-related life-threatening/shortening events (thrombotic microangiopathy, infarctions, infections) were evident despite decreased T- and B-cell infiltration, lower interstitial inflammation and downregulated inflammatory genes particularly after i.a. MSC injection. We conclude that i.a. MSC administration provides efficient immunomodulation after allogeneic RTx, although timing and co-treatment strategies need further fine-tuning to develop the full potential of powerful cell therapy in solid organ transplantation.
