Donation after circulatory death – activity review in the Asian region

open access: yesTransplantation Reports, 2022
Transplantation remains the optimum treatment for many patients. The availability of donor organs has failed to keep pace with demand, resulting in an ever-increasing waiting list of potential recipients.

Autophagy and mitophagy in pancreatic β‐cell homeostasis and their involvement in diabetes pathophysiology

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This review focuses on the role of autophagy and mitophagy in maintaining pancreatic β‐cell function and homeostasis. We discuss how genetic defects affecting these pathways contribute to the development of type 1, type 2, monogenic, and gestational diabetes. We further explore their potential as therapeutic targets. Created in BioRender.

Metastatic niche shaped by host factors influences disseminated cancer cell fate

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Metastasis is shaped not only by cancer cells but also by the environments they encounter. This review explores how factors such as aging, diet, the microbiome, lifestyle, and environmental exposures remodel organ‐specific niches in the lung, liver, bone, and brain, influencing where metastatic cells survive, remain dormant, or grow, and ultimately ...

A multicenter analysis of lung transplantation outcomes comparing donation after circulatory death and donation after brain death

open access: yesJHLT Open
Background: Donor organ shortage is a barrier to lung transplantation. Donation after circulatory death (DCD) may offer a solution, although it is underutilized. The objective of this study was to compare survival and other postoperative outcomes between

Pre-arrest doxycycline protects donation after circulatory death kidneys

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2020
Kidney injury during donation after circulatory determination of death (DCDD) includes warm ischemic (WI) injury from around the time of asystole, and cold ischemic (CI) injury during cold preservation.

Prioritizing direct heart procurement in organ donors after circulatory death does not jeopardize lung transplant outcomesCentral MessagePerspective

open access: yesJTCVS Techniques, 2022
Background: Controlled donation after circulatory death (cDCD) has become a standard in liver, kidney, and lung transplantation (LTx). Based on recent innovations in ex vivo heart preservation, heart transplant centers have started to accept cDCD heart ...

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Hijacking emergency granulopoiesis: Neutrophil ontogeny and reprogramming in cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Neutrophils are highly plastic innate immune cells; their functions in cancer extend beyond the tumour microenvironment. This Review summarises current understanding of neutrophil maturation and heterogeneity and highlights tumour‐induced granulopoiesis as a systemic programme that expands immature, immunosuppressive neutrophils via tumour‐derived ...

Heart transplantation with donation after circulatory determination of death.

open access: yes, 2014
The constant shortage of available organs is a major obstacle and limiting factor in heart transplantation; the discrepancy between the number of donors and potential recipients leads to waiting-list mortality of 10-12% per year in Europe and the USA. If

Solid organ transplantation originating from uncontrolled donation after circulatory death in Europe: a narrative review

open access: yesScandinavian Journal of Trauma, Resuscitation and Emergency Medicine
Human organ transplantation has begun in the 1960s with donation after circulatory death. At that time this was named non heart beating donation, later donation after cardiac death and nowadays it is named donation after circulatory death.
