Prolonged warm ischemia time increases mitogen-activated protein kinase activity and decreases perfusate cytokine levels in ex vivo rat liver machine perfusion

Frontiers in Transplantation, 2023
IntroductionMachine perfusion is increasingly being utilized in liver transplantation in lieu of traditional cold static organ preservation. Nevertheless, better understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying the ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI ...

The ultrastructural characteristics of porcine hepatocytes donated after cardiac death and preserved with warm machine perfusion preservation. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2017
The effects of warm machine perfusion preservation of liver grafts donated after cardiac death on the intracellular three-dimensional ultrastructure of the organelles in hepatocytes remain unclear. Here we analyzed comparatively the ultrastructure of the

Recent Methods of Kidney Storage and Therapeutic Possibilities of Transplant Kidney

Biomedicines, 2022
Kidney transplantation is the standard procedure for the treatment of end-stage renal disease (ESRD). During kidney storage and before implantation, the organ is exposed to damaging factors which affect the decline in condition.

Research progress on hepatic machine perfusion [PDF]

International Journal of Medical Sciences, 2021
Nowadays, liver transplantation is the most effective treatment for end-stage liver disease. However, the increasing imbalance between growing demand for liver transplantation and the shortage of donor pool restricts the development of liver transplantation. How to expand the donor pool is a significant problem to be solved clinically.
