ABSTRACT

Prolonged warm ischemic is the main cause discarding donated organs after cardiac death. Here, we identified that prolonged warm ischemic time induced disseminated intravascular coagulation and severe capillary vasospasm after cardiac death of rat kidneys. Additionally, we found a significant accumulation of fibrinogen in a hypoxic cell culture of human umbilical vein epithelial cells and in isolated kidneys exposed to prolonged warm ischemic following flushing out of blood. However, pre-flushing the kidney with snake venom plasmin in a 90-minute warm ischemic model maximized removal of micro thrombi and facilitated the delivery of oxygen and therapeutic agents. Application of carbon monoxide-releasing CORM-401 during ex vivo hypothermic oxygenated perfusion achieved multipath protective effects in prolonged warm ischemic kidneys. This led to significant improvements in perfusion parameters, restoration of the microcirculation, amelioration of mitochondrial injury, oxidative stress, and apoptosis. This benefit resulted in significantly prolonged warm ischemic kidney recipient survival rates of 70%, compared with none in those receiving ex vivo hypothermic oxygenated perfusion alone. Significantly, ex vivo hypothermic oxygenated perfusion combined with cytoprotective carbon monoxide releasing CORM-401 treatment meaningfully protected the donated kidney after cardiac death from ischemia-reperfusion injury by reducing inflammation, oxidative stress, apoptosis, and pathological damage. Thus, our study suggests a new combination treatment strategy to potentially expand the donor pool by increasing use of organs after cardiac death and salvaging prolonged warm ischemic kidneys.
