Level of Granzyme B-positive T-regulatory cells is a strong predictor biomarker of acute Graft-versus-host disease after day +30 after allo-HSCT.
Leukemia Research 2017 March
Acute Graft-versus-host-disease (aGVHD), the major complication and one of the main causes of poor outcomes of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Nowadays there are no widely accepted cell, plasma or another biomarker that can be used for aGVHD prediction. We hypothesized that a level of Granzyme B-positive T regulatory (GZMB-positive Treg) cells on day+30 after allo-HSCT could be the measure of immune response suppression and could predict aGVHD development after day +30. We applied a widespread and easy-to-perform method of multicolor flow cytometry to measure level of GZMB-positive Treg cells. Levels of GZMB-positive Tregs on day +30 after allo-HSCT were significantly higher in those patients who never developed aGVHD in comparison with the other group of patient with aGVHD after day +30 (p=0.0229). We conclude that the level of GZMB-positive Treg cells is a strong predictor of acute Graft-versus-host disease after day +30 after allo-HSCT.
