Morphology of non-ventilated transplanted rat lungs.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Morphological changes in lung tissue of heterotopic heart-lung transplants have been studied 28 days following transplantation in 20 rats. Lung tissue showed disperse haemorrhagic necrosis often sparing bronchi and branches of pulmonary artery and conspicuous accumulation of bronchial secretion. Partial disappearance of cardiac muscle cells from the walls of pulmonary veins has been ascribed to tissue hypoxia.

Ex-vivo perfusion and ventilation of rat lungs from non-heart-beating donors before transplant.
BACKGROUND We developed an ex-vivo circuit to evaluate human lungs retrieved from non-heart-beating donors. We assessed the effect of a similar circuit on the function of transplanted rat lungs retrieved from non-heart-beating donors. METHODS One hour after death, Sprague-Dawley rat heart-lung blocks were flushed with 20 mL of cold Perfadex, stored cold for 1 hour, then warmed to 37 degrees C...
متن کاملStandardization of pulmonary ventilation technique using volume-controlled ventilators in rats with congenital diaphragmatic hernia.
OBJECTIVE To standardize a technique for ventilating rat fetuses with Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia (CDH) using a volume-controlled ventilator. METHODS Pregnant rats were divided into the following groups: a) control (C); b) exposed to nitrofen with CDH (CDH); and c) exposed to nitrofen without CDH (N-). Fetuses of the three groups were randomly divided into the subgroups ventilated (V) and...

Background: Limited and fixed number of ovarian follicles undergo reducing changes from birth till menopause. In cancerous patients who exposed to sterilizing treatments such as chemotherapy, follicle decrease is faster and dominant. Main fertility preservation technique for these patients is ovarian cryopreservation and transplantation. Reanastomosis between recipient site and invader tissue i...
متن کاملNegative pressure ventilation enhances acinar perfusion in isolated rat lungs
We compared acinar perfusion in isolated rat lungs ventilated using positive or negative pressures. The lungs were ventilated with air at transpulmomary pressures of 15/5 cm H2O, at 25 breaths/min, and perfused with a hetastarch solution at Ppulm art/PLA pressures of 10/0 cm H2O. We evaluated overall perfusability from perfusate flows, and from the venous concentrations of 4-µm diameter fluores...
متن کاملWhen does the lung die? Kfc, cell viability, and adenine nucleotide changes in the circulation-arrested rat lung.
Lungs harvested from cadaveric circulation-arrested donors may increase the donor pool for lung transplantation. To determine the degree and time course of ischemia-reperfusion injury, we evaluated the effect of O2 ventilation on capillary permeability [capillary filtration coefficient (Kfc)], cell viability, and total adenine nucleotide (TAN) levels in in situ circulation-arrested rat lungs. K...
