Aspergillus-Specific IgG Antibodies are Associated With Fungal-Related Complications and Chronic Lung Allograft Dysfunction After Lung Transplantation
Fungal exposure and sensitization negatively affect outcomes in various respiratory diseases, however, the effect of fungal sensitization in lung transplant (LTx) recipients is still unknown. We performed a retrospective cohort study of prospectively collected data on circulating fungal specific IgG...

description | Fungal exposure and sensitization negatively affect outcomes in various respiratory diseases, however, the effect of fungal sensitization in lung transplant (LTx) recipients is still unknown. We performed a retrospective cohort study of prospectively collected data on circulating fungal specific IgG/IgE antibodies, and their correlation with fungal isolation, chronic lung allograft dysfunction (CLAD) and overall survival after LTx. 311 patients transplanted between 2014 and 2019 were included. Patients with elevated Aspergillus fumigatus or Aspergillus flavus IgG (10%) had more mold and Aspergillus species isolation (p = 0.0068 and p = 0.0047). Aspergillus fumigatus IgG was specifically associated with Aspergillus fumigatus isolation in the previous or consecutive year (AUC 0.60, p = 0.004 and AUC 0.63, p = 0.022, respectively). Elevated Aspergillus fumigatus or Aspergillus flavus IgG was associated with CLAD (p = 0.0355), but not with death. Aspergillus fumigatus, Aspergillus flavus or Aspergillus niger IgE was elevated in 19.3% of patients, but not associated with fungal isolation, CLAD or death. Mold isolation and Aspergillus species isolation from respiratory cultures were associated with CLAD occurrence (p = 0.0011 and p = 0.0005, respectively), and Aspergillus species isolation was also associated with impaired survival (p = 0.0424). Fungus-specific IgG could be useful in long-term follow-up post-LTx, as a non-invasive marker for fungal exposure, and thus a diagnostic tool for identifying patients at risk for fungal-related complications and CLAD. |
