Hyperbranched Polyglycerol as a Colloid in Cold Organ Preservation Solutions
PLOS ONE, 2015 Hydroxyethyl starch (HES) is a common colloid in organ preservation solutions, such as in University of Wisconsin (UW) solution, for preventing graft interstitial edema and cell swelling during cold preservation of donor organs. However, HES has undesirable characteristics, such as high viscosity, causing kidney injury and aggregation of erythrocytes ...

The effect of organ preservation solutions on kidney tubular and endothelial cells [PDF]
Transplant International, 1998 Organ preservation solutions have primarily been tested in whole organ animal models. In the current study, we have examined the effect of commonly used organ preservation solutions on both kidney tubular and endothelial cells. Primary human endothelial and kidney tubular cells were incubated at 4 degrees C in the following solutions: 0.9% saline (NS),

A Novel Preservation Solution Containing Quercetin and Sucrose for Porcine Kidney Transplantation
Transplantation Direct, 2020 Background. In organ transplantation, the University of Wisconsin (UW) solution has been the gold standard for organ preservation. Quercetin (Que) has numerous antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities, and sucrose (Suc) may be effective for cold ...

A pathophysiologic study of the kidney tubule to optimize organ preservation solutions [PDF]
Kidney International, 2004 Tissue damage at the time of organ transplantation has a negative impact on the subsequent success of the procedure, both in the immediate and longer term. Hypothermia is the principal element used to prolong organ viability ex vivo, but paradoxically also induces cellular edema through inhibition of energy-dependent adenosine triphosphatases (ATPases).

Preparation and testing of solutions for organ perfusion and preservation in transplantation
Vojnosanitetski pregled, 2008 Background/Aim. Histidine-tryptophan-ketoglutarate (HTK) solution is the most frequently used solution for the preservation of abdominal organs by leading transplant centers worldwide. The aim of the study was to investigate whether it is possible to prepare this kind of perfusion solution in the hospital pharmacy.

Chinese Medical Journal, 2008 The University of Wisconsin colloid based preserving solution (UW solution) is the most efficient preserving solution for multiorgan transplantation. Unfortunately, unavailability of delayed organ preserving solutions hindered further progression of cardinal organ transplantation in China.
