I found schema.org defines "UserComments" type so we could also use it.
http://schema.org/UserComments

    <article itemscope
     itemtype="http://schema.org/BlogPosting">
      ...
      <section id="comments">
        <h1>Comments</h1>
        <article itemprop="comment" itemscope
         itemtype="http://schema.org/UserComments">
          <p itemprop="creator" ...>
          ...
          <div itemprop="commentText">
            ...
          </div>
        </article>
        ...
      </section>
    </article>

Microdata defines itemref attribute so in case of using Microdata we
don't need a new attribute specifically designed for "in-reply-to"
relationship.
