Mechanisms of immune regulation and transplantation immunity in corneal transplants by V. V. Neroev, N. V. Balatskaya, E. V. Chentsova, Kh. M. Shamkhalova

“…Unlike other kinds of transplants, corneal grafting is often performed without tissue typing and systemic immunosuppression.High frequency of transparent corneal engraftment (up to 90% of cases) in the absence of risk factors is due to special immunoprivileged area in the anterior eye segment (functionally, a structural aggregation of the cornea and anterior chamber, AC) accomplished by local and systemic immunoregulatory mechanisms, i.e., phenomenon of immune deviation associated with anterior chamber of the eye (ACAID), components of the internal liquid medium, a watery moisture with immunosuppressive properties, e.g., IL-1ra, TSP-1,TGF-β2, regulatory complement proteins, α-MSH (alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone), VIP (vasoactive intestinal peptide), indolamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO), calcitonin-gene-bound peptide (CGRP), somatostatin, etc.In addition to ACAID and liquid AC components, a contribution to the maintenance of immune privilege which is extremely important for a successful outcome of keratoplasty, is provided by other mechanisms, in particular, immunologically active membrane-associated molecules of corneal endothelium, i.e., PDL-1 (Programmed death ligand 1), and sVEGFR-1, sVEGFR-2, sVEGFR-3 involved in maintaining avascularity of the corneal tissue. …”
