Abstract
Background: Heart transplantation with donation after circulatory death (DCD) enhances cardiac graft availability, but exposes hearts to potentially damaging conditions, such as warm ischemia. Normothermic machine perfusion (NMP), used for graft transportation, allows biomarker determination in perfusate. Using our isolated, rat heart model of DCD, we evaluated potent.
Methods: Isolated, perfused adult male Wistar rat hearts (n = 5/group) underwent different warm ischemic durations to simulate DCD, followed by reperfusion to simulate NMP. Perfusate samples were collected after 10 min reperfusion, and proteins were analyzed using mass spectrometry. Cardiac recovery was evaluated after 60 min reperfusion. The relationship between perfusate proteins and cardiac recovery was investigated.
Results: Cardiac recovery decreased with increasing ischemic duration. Principal component analysis of perfusate proteins demonstrated segregation by ischemic group. Several proteins demonstrated an On-Off pattern, and correlated with key outcome measurements. Other proteins were released by all hearts and were confirmed as predictors of cardiac recovery, for example, heat shock protein 70 and valosin-containing protein (area under the curve [AUC] = 0.962-0.968, respectively; P < 0.05 for all). Additionally, proteins such as glycogen phosphorylase, muscle associated (AUC = 0.9632; P < 0.05) showed potential as novel biomarkers for evaluating cardiac graft quality, unlike lactate release after 10 min of reperfusion (AUC = 0.60).
Conclusions: Multiple perfusate proteins, such as heat shock protein 70, valosin-containing protein, or glycogen phosphorylase, muscle associated, released during early reperfusion are promising as biomarkers for assessing graft quality during NMP. Perfusate proteins, as biomarkers, offer the possibility of both rapid immune detection and out-of-hospital implementation, and may provide valuable information about graft quality, especially when profiled with serial sampling during NMP.

The official journal of The Transplantation Society, and the International Liver Transplantation Society, Transplantation is published monthly and is the most cited and influential journal in the field, with more than 25,000 citations per year.
Transplantation has been the trusted source for extensive and timely coverage of the most important advances in transplantation for over 50 years. The Editors and Editorial Board are an international group of research and clinical leaders that includes many pioneers of the field, representing a diverse range of areas of expertise. This capable editorial team provides thoughtful and thorough peer review, and delivers rapid, careful and insightful editorial evaluation of all manuscripts submitted to the journal.
Transplantation is committed to rapid review and publication. The journal remains competitive with a time to first decision of fewer than 21 days. Transplantation was the first in the field to offer CME credit to its peer reviewers for reviews completed.
The journal publishes original research articles in original clinical science and original basic science. Short reports bring attention to research at the forefront of the field. Other areas covered include cell therapy and islet transplantation, immunobiology and genomics, and xenotransplantation.
