Anti-PLA2R1 Antibodies Containing Sera Induce In Vitro Cytotoxicity Mediated by Complement Activation by Maël Lateb, Hajar Ouahmi, Christine Payré, Vesna Brglez, Kevin Zorzi, Guillaume Dolla, Mohamad Zaidan, Sonia Boyer-Suavet, Bertrand Knebelmann, Thomas Crépin, Cécile Courivaud, Noémie Jourde-Chiche, Vincent Esnault, Gérard Lambeau, Barbara Seitz-Polski

“…In a cohort of 37 patients treated with rituximab, high level of complement-mediated cytotoxicity was associated with less and delayed remission at month 6 after rituximab therapy (5/12 vs. 20/25 (p=0.03) in 8.5 months±4.4 vs. 4.8±4.0 (p=0.02)). Kaplan-Meier analysis demonstrated that high level of cytotoxicity (≥40%) (p=0.005), epitope spreading (defined by immunization beyond the immunodominant CysR domain) (p=0.002), and high titer of anti-PLA2R1 total IgG (p=0.01) were factors of poor renal prognosis. …”

“…Compared to MELD score, Child-Turcotte-Pugh (CTP) score or apoAI, Lip-ACLFs was superior for the prediction of 90-day outcomes (receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC): 0.930 vs. 0.885, 0.833 or 0.856, all P < 0.01), as was the validation cohort (ROC 0.906 vs. 0.839, 0.857 or 0.837, all P < 0.05). In Kaplan‒Meier survival analysis, low apoAI levels (< 0.42 g/L) at baseline indicated poor prognosis in ACLF and AD patients. …”
