Abstract
Normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) has become a valuable tool to expand the pool of transplantable organs. However, the application of NMP to kidneys presents substantial challenges, mostly due to high variability in the composition of currently used perfusion solutions. Here, we provide a multimodal cross-species cellular atlas of kidney injury associated with NMP using a literature-based consensus buffer. This resource provided a systematic framework that was used to develop a metabolite-enhanced perfusion solution, which protected renal proximal tubular cells, improving cellular viability and transplantation outcomes across species, including human kidneys.
期刊介绍:
JCI Insight is a Gold Open Access journal with a 2022 Impact Factor of 8.0. It publishes high-quality studies in various biomedical specialties, such as autoimmunity, gastroenterology, immunology, metabolism, nephrology, neuroscience, oncology, pulmonology, and vascular biology. The journal focuses on clinically relevant basic and translational research that contributes to the understanding of disease biology and treatment. JCI Insight is self-published by the American Society for Clinical Investigation (ASCI), a nonprofit honor organization of physician-scientists founded in 1908, and it helps fulfill the ASCI's mission to advance medical science through the publication of clinically relevant research reports.
