Background: Recipients of vascularized composite allografts require aggressive and lifelong immunosuppression, and because the surgery is usually performed in nonlife-threatening situations, the development of strategies to minimize immunosuppression is especially pertinent for this procedure. We investigated how complement affects acute graft injury, alloimmunity, and immunosuppressive therapy. Methods: Vascularized composite allografts were transplanted from Balb/C to C57BL/6 mice that were complement deficient (C3 or double C3a Receptor (R)/C5aR), or treated with a targeted complement inhibitor (CR2-Crry). Allografts were analyzed for acute inflammation and injury, subacute T cell response, and survival in the absence and presence of cyclosporine A (CsA) therapy. Results: Allografts in C3-deficient or CR2-Crry?treated recipients were protected from skin and muscle ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI). C3aR/C5aR-deficient recipients were more modestly protected. IgM and C3d colocalized within allografts from wild type and C3aR/C5aR-deficient recipients indicating IgM-mediated complement activation, and C3d deposition was almost absent in allografts from C3-deficient and CR2-Crry?treated recipients. Inflammatory cell infiltration and P-selectin expression was also significantly reduced in C3-deficient and CR2-Crry?treated recipients. Acute treatment with CR2-Crry or with 3 mg/kg per day CsA modestly, but significantly increased median allograft survival from 5.8 to 7.4 and 7.2 days, respectively. However, combined acute CR2-Crry treatment and CsA therapy increased mean graft survival to 17.2 days. Protection was associated with significantly reduced T cell infiltration of allografts and Tc1 cells in recipient spleens. Conclusions: Complement-mediated IRI augments graft allogenicity, and appropriate complement inhibition ameliorates IRI, decreases alloimmune priming and allows more immune-sparing CsA dosing.
