Summary• Cardinal features of T1DR demonstrated in several patients by:
– clinical features (loss of insulin secretion and diabetes
symptoms in the presence of normal pancreas transplant
exocrine function)
– biochemical autoantibody assays
– pancreas transplant biopsy (isletitis)
– autoreactive T cells, possibly representing memory responses
• T1DR observed in ~5% of SPK recipients, despite
immunosuppression
• Its frequency is not dissimilar from that of chronic rejection.
• T1DR may occur even after several years of secretory function
• The immunosuppression used does not restore self-tolerance

β CELL FAILURE
• ACMR and AMR leading to graft fibrosis
with secondary damage to islets
• Death of the β cells (preservation of the
exocrine pancreatic component)

C4d staining in pancreas interacinar
capillaries
Immunohistochemical (A) and Immunofluorescence (B) methods.

C4d in Pancreas: IHC vs IF
• Both adequate for clinical purposes
• IF typically more diffuse and with stronger
staining (10-50%)
• Focal C4d often correlate with DSA.
Threshold for positivity ≥5%.
• The results of this analysis will be
prepared for publication under the
leadership of Surya Seshan

Mild acute AMR: The lobular architecture is preserved but there
are interacinar infiltrates predominantly composed of
macrophages (CD68 stain on the right).

BANFF GUIDELINES FOR THE DIAGNOSIS OF
ANTIBODY MEDIATED REJECTION
1. Confirmed circulating donor specific antibody (DSA)
2. Morphological evidence of tissue injury
3. C4d positivity in interacinar capillaries
- Acute AMR (all 3 diagnostic components present).
- Suspicious of acute AMR (2 diagnostic components present).
- Not sufficient for diagnosis of AMR (1 diagnostic component present). Heightened clinical vigilance recommended.

Aims for Banff 2013 • Evaluation of protocol biopsies
• Correlation of rejection related findings in
duodenal cuff and pancreas parenchyma
• Detailed evaluation of the incidence and
characteristics of recurrent Type I and II
DM
• Development of an official Banff lesion
scoring system in combination with the
preparation of a didactic training set in
preparation for further reproducibility
studies. (MI lesions, special stains)

Aims for Banff 2013 (cont)
• Wideworld Survey to evaluate clinical
practices with respect to biopsy
performance and pathological practices
– C4d staining
