The value of machine perfusion perfusate biomarkers for predicting kidney transplant outcome.

چکیده
BACKGROUND Retrospective evidence suggests that lactate dehydrogenase, aspartate aminotransferase, total glutathione-S-transferase (GST), alanine-aminopeptidase, N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminidase (NAG), and heart-type fatty acid binding protein (H-FABP) measured during kidney machine perfusion (MP) could have predictive value for posttransplant outcome. However, these data may be biased due to organ discard based on biomarker measurements, and previous analyses were not adjusted for likely confounding factors. No reliable prospective evidence has been available so far. Nevertheless, some centers already use these biomarkers to aid decisions on accepting or discarding a donor kidney. METHODS From 306 deceased-donor kidneys donated after brain death or controlled cardiac death and included in an international randomized controlled trial, these six biomarkers were measured in the MP perfusate. In this unselected prospective data set, we tested whether concentrations were associated with delayed graft function, primary nonfunction, and graft survival. Multivariate regression models investigated whether the biomarkers remained independent predictors when adjusted for relevant confounding factors. RESULTS GST, NAG, and H-FABP were independent predictors of delayed graft function but not of primary nonfunction and graft survival. Lactate dehydrogenase, aspartate aminotransferase, and alanine-aminopeptidase had no independent prognostic potential for any of the endpoints. Perfusate biomarker concentrations had no relevant correlation with cold ischemic time or renal vascular resistance on the pump. CONCLUSIONS Increased GST, NAG, or H-FABP concentrations during MP are an indication to adjust posttransplant recipient management. However, this study shows for the first time that perfusate biomarker measurements should not lead to kidney discard.

Gradual Rewarming with Gradual Increase in Pressure during Machine Perfusion after Cold Static Preservation Reduces Kidney Ischemia Reperfusion Injury.
In this study we evaluated whether gradual rewarming after the period of cold ischemia would improve organ quality in an Isolated Perfused Kidney Model. Left rat kidneys were statically cold stored in University of Wisconsin solution for 24 hours at 4°C. After cold storage kidneys were rewarmed in one of three ways: perfusion at body temperature (38°C), or rewarmed gradually from 10°C to 38°C w...

Objectives Availability of donor lungs suitable for transplant falls short of current demand and contributes to waiting list mortality. Ex vivo lung perfusion (EVLP) offers the opportunity to objectively assess and recondition organs unsuitable for immediate transplant. Identifying robust biomarkers that can stratify donor lungs during EVLP to use or non-use or for specific interventions could ...

To meet the current clinical organ demand, efficient preservation methods and solutions are needed to increase the number of viable kidneys for transplantation. In the present study, the influence of perfusion solution buffering strength on renal pH dynamics and regulation mechanisms during kidney ex vivo preservation was determined. Porcine kidneys were hypothermically machine perfused for 72 ...
