Pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate administered during ex-vivo lung perfusion promotes rehabilitation of injured donor rat lungs obtained after prolonged warm ischemia
Damaged lung grafts obtained after circulatory death (DCD lungs) and warm ischemia may be at high risk of reperfusion injury after transplantation. Such lungs could be pharmacologically reconditioned using ex-vivo lung perfusion (EVLP). Since acute inflammation related to the activation of nuclear factor kappaB (NF-κB) is instrumental in lung reperfusion injury, we hypothesized that DCD lungs m...
متن کاملInduction of endotoxin tolerance improves lung function after warm ischemia in dogs.
In shock models, induction of endotoxin tolerance (ET) is known to have a protective effect. The present study was designed to explore if ET is effective in protecting lungs from reperfusion injury. Twelve foxhounds were used as experimental animals. After a left thoracotomy, the left hilum was clamped for 3 h, followed by 8 h of reperfusion. In the treatment group (ET, n = 6), dogs were pretre...
متن کاملAntagonizing reactive oxygen species during ex vivo lung perfusion.
TO THE EDITOR: The stop of flow (ischemia) would be interpreted as membrane depolarization, through the inhibition of KATP channels, leading to activation of NADPH oxidase, leading to increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) production (1). The resultant ROS are claimed to be an effective mediator for ischemic preconditioning (IPC), as proved by the observation that the presence of antioxidants ...
متن کاملEx vivo lung perfusion in Brazil
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the use of ex vivo lung perfusion (EVLP) clinically to prepare donor lungs for transplantation. METHODS A prospective study involving EVLP for the reconditioning of extended-criteria donor lungs, the criteria for which include aspects such as a PaO2/FiO2 ratio < 300 mmHg. Between February of 2013 and February of 2014, the lungs of five donors were submitted to EVLP for u...
متن کاملIncidence and severity of primary graft dysfunction after lung transplantation using rejected grafts reconditioned with ex vivo lung perfusion.
OBJECTIVES Ex vivo lung perfusion (EVLP) is a novel technique used to evaluate and recondition marginal or rejected grafts. Primary graft dysfunction (PGD) is a major early complication after lung transplantation (LTx). The use of marginal or initially rejected grafts may increase its incidence and severity. The aim of this study is to evaluate the incidence of PGD after LTx using rejected graf...
