The prevalence of hyper-LDL-cholesterolemia and hyper-non-HDL-cholesterolemia was not related to CKD stage. Patients with advanced CKD stages are more likely to have hypertriglyceridemia and hypo-HDL-cholesterolemia than those in early stages. This type of lipid profile may represent a risk factor for ASCVD in patients with CKD.

This type of lipid profile may represent a risk factor for ASCVD in patients with CKD. The non-classical class I molecule human leukocyte antigen-G (HLA-G) has great potential to modulate the immune response. However, the mechanism underlying HLA-G induction remains unknown. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the factors that induce HLA-G expression on proximal tubular epithelial cells (pTECs) in renal transplanted allografts in vivo and in vitro. This study included 40 adult Japanese patients with renal allografts (35 and five patients with kidneys from living and deceased donors, respectively) who survived for at least 1year. We evaluated HLA-G1/5 expression using an immunofluorescence method and investigated the induction of HLA-G expression in primary cultured human pTECs by cytokines and immunosuppressants. The HLA-G expression was identified in the perinuclear region or on the basement membrane of pTECs of renal biopsy tissue in 12 (30%) of 40 patients at 2-4weeks and at 1year following transplantation. A reduction of 30% in the estimated glomerular filtration rate was lower in the HLA-G-positive group than that of the negative group (p = 0
