Antibody-mediated marrow failure after allogeneic bone marrow
transplantation

Marrow graft failure observed in association with histocompatibility
differences between donor and recipient is often attributed to rejection
mediated by host-derived cytolytic T lymphocytes. The data presented in
this report indicate that persistent host antibodies specific for donor
antigen may also mediate graft failure, either by antibody-dependent
cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC), or complement- mediated cytotoxicity. In
the case of HLA Class I disparity, where all donor cells express the target
antigen, the presence of alpha-donor antibody was associated with complete
graft failure and death. In the case of ABO blood group antigen disparity,
the presence of alpha-donor antibody resulted in erythroid hypoplasia. The
latter cases proved informative insofar as they established that host
antibodies could persist for more than 18 months after chemoradiotherapy
and impair marrow function.
