Allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation eliminates alloreactive inhibitory antibodies after liver transplantation for bile salt export pump deficiency.
Journal of Hepatology 2018 October
Progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis 2 is an autosomal-recessive disorder caused by mutations in the ABCB11 gene, which encodes the bile salt export pump (BSEP). Recurrence of BSEP deficiency after liver transplantation is caused by the development of anti-BSEP antibodies. Antibody-induced BSEP deficiency is typically treated by increasing immunosuppressive therapy. We report, in a child, the first case of allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation for antibody-induced BSEP deficiency that was refractory to intensive pharmacological immunosuppression and immunoadsorption. After haematopoietic stem cell transplantation, anti-BSEP antibodies were cleared from the patient's serum and later from the canalicular space of the liver graft.
