Elderly Liver Grafts are More Susceptible to Ischemia‐Reperfusion After Prolonged Cold Ischemia than Grafts from Young Donors—An Ex Vivo Liver Machine Perfusion Analysis in Sprague Dawley Rats

open access: yesAdvanced Therapeutics, EarlyView.
This study investigates how donor age and cold ischemia time influence liver perfusion parameters and injury markers. Older livers are more susceptible to longer ischemia times displaying more tissue damage, and higher expression of oxidative stress and apoptosis‐related proteins than livers with shorter ischemia times.
