Types of transplantation :
Autologous graft = auto graftAutologous graft = auto graft..
Synegenic graft = syngraftSynegenic graft = syngraft..
Allogeneic graft = allograftAllogeneic graft = allograft..
Xenogenic graft = xenogaftXenogenic graft = xenogaft..
TransplantationTransplantation: : Transferring cells, tissues, or organs
from one site to another
Graft rejectionGraft rejection::
Occurs when aOccurs when a transplanted organ or tissue organ or tissue fails to be accepted by the body of the fails to be accepted by the body of the transplant recipienttransplant recipient..
Pleomorphism of MHC genes
Different MHC Ags within species& individuals
Causes of graft Causes of graft rejectionrejection::
T Lymphocytes recognize transplanted organ as foreign& release cytokines that lyse cells.
Graft failure
Mechanism of graft rejection:1.T Cell Mediated (Cellular rejection)
Direct pathway. Indirect pathway.
2.Antibody Mediated Reactions
(Humoral rejection)

Types of T cell mediated reactionTypes of T cell mediated reaction : : 1. Direct Pathway:1. Direct Pathway:
T cells of recipient recognize allogenic MHC molecule on T cells of recipient recognize allogenic MHC molecule on the surface of an APC in donor.the surface of an APC in donor.
interstitial dendritic cells of donor organs are the best interstitial dendritic cells of donor organs are the best immunogenic.(why?)immunogenic.(why?)
CD4+ and CD8+ T cells of recipient encounter antigens in CD4+ and CD8+ T cells of recipient encounter antigens in lymph nodeslymph nodes
CD4+ proliferate, release cytokines& trigger delayed CD4+ proliferate, release cytokines& trigger delayed hypersensitivity reaction. hypersensitivity reaction.

recipient T lymphocytes recognize antigens after being presented by own antigen-presenting cells.same as presentation of microbial antigens.

1. In Hyperacute reaction:1. In Hyperacute reaction: previous exposure to the donor antigens.previous exposure to the donor antigens. As in:As in:

2. In chronic rejection:2. In chronic rejection: not previously exposed to the donor antigen.not previously exposed to the donor antigen. Abs cause damage by complement, ADCC &Ag Ab complexAbs cause damage by complement, ADCC &Ag Ab complex

TreatmentTreatment::a) Hyperacute rejection:
only by removal of the organ immediately
b) Chronic rejection: irreversible & cannot be prevented.
only treatment is a new transplant after
