We show the addition of 5 % PEG to the storage medium significantly reduced the release of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) in plated rat hepatocytes and a combinatorial treatment with emricasan maintains hepatocyte viability and morphology following recovery from cold storage. These results show that cold-stored hepatocytes undergo multiple mechanisms of cold-induced injury and that PEG and emricasan treatment in combination with supercooling may improve cell and organ preservation.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":10897,"journal":{"name":"Cryobiology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2024-06-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141330539","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In adult male rats, cardiomyocytes isolated from the left ventricle were electrically stimulated at 0.5 Hz and evoked cytosolic [Ca<sup>2+</sup>] and contractile responses (sarcomere length shortening) were measured.

Immediately after rewarming, the effects of epinephrine treatment on evoked cytosolic [Ca<sup>2+</sup>] and contractile responses of cardiomyocytes were determined. At 37 °C, epinephrine treatment increased both cytosolic [Ca<sup>2+</sup>] and contractile responses of cardiomyocytes in a concentration-dependent manner peaking at 25–50 nM. The evoked contractile response of cardiomyocytes after H/R was reduced while the cytosolic [Ca<sup>2+</sup>] response was slightly elevated.

Platelet quality was assessed by flow cytometry and thromboelastography (TEG). Post-thaw recovery was similar between the three groups. The abundance of labile platelet glycoproteins GPIbα and GPVI were highest in the DES group, however, markers of activation (CD62P and annexin-V) were also higher in this group. In terms of function, the strength of the clot (maximum amplitude; TEG) and extent of clot retraction was better with DES platelets compared to no CPA, but lower than Me2SO platelets. DES provides a cryoprotective advantage to platelets when compared to no CPA. Importantly, when compared to Me2SO platelets, most quality parameters were similar in DES platelets.

In particular, the signature pressure-based ice detection used in many isochoric techniques becomes paradoxical during vitrification, wherein the emergence of a sharp increase in pressure reliably indicates the presence of ice, but avoidance of this increase does not necessarily indicate its absence. This phenomenon arises from the rich interplay between thermochemical and thermovolumetric effects in isochoric systems, and muddies efforts to confirm the degree to which a sample has vitrified. In this work, we seek to aid interpretation of isochoric vitrification experiments by calculating thermodynamic limits on the maximum amount of ice that may form without being detected by pressure, and by clarifying the myriad physical processes at play. Neglecting kinetic effects, we develop a simplified thermodynamic model accounting for thermal contraction, cavity formation, ice growth, solute ripening, and glass formation, we evaluate it for a range of chamber materials and solution compositions, and we validate against the acutely limited data available. Our results provide both counter-intuitive insights— lower-concentration solutions may contract less while producing more pressure-undetectable ice growth for example— and a general phenomenological framework by which to evaluate the process of vitrification in isochoric systems. We anticipate that the model herein will enable design of future isochoric protocols with minimized risk of pressure-undetectable ice formation, and provide a thermodynamic foundation from which to build an increasingly rigorous multi-physics understanding of isochoric vitrification.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":10897,"journal":{"name":"Cryobiology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2024-05-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0011224024000609/pdfft?md5=4e77148890e2076a90344413ff75e983&pid=1-s2.0-S0011224024000609-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140956643","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The objectives were: to analyze cryopreservation protocols by experimentally measuring the cooling rates and fertilization yield of 0.5 ml plastic straws located in nitrogen vapor at different heights corresponding to different external temperatures; to numerically simulate the freezing process, by solving the heat transfer partial differential equations with the corresponding thermo-physical properties of the biological system and the plastic straw; to evaluate and analyze the surface heat transfer coefficient (h) during the freezing process of the straws; to introduce a new variable, the characteristic freezing time (tc), that enables comparison between protocols; this variable was defined as the elapsed period between the initial freezing temperature and a final reference temperature of −40 °C (temperature in which more than 80 % of the water is in a frozen state). The mathematical model predicted the temperature distribution inside the straw, showing a low effect of straw plastic materials (polyethylene-terephthalate glycol, polyvinyl-chloride, and polypropylene) on freezing rates. The average h value obtained from numerical simulations was 25.5 W/m<sup>2</sup> K, close to that obtained from the analytical Nusselt correlation for natural convection. An improvement on fertilization trials was observed when the average external nitrogen temperature was −129.6 °C (temperature range: −94 to −171 °C) with an average tc of 56.8 s (ranging between 47 and 72 s). These results corresponded to a height above the level of liquid nitrogen of 2 cm. Comparison with literature reported data showed satisfactory results. Applying mathematical models in the cryobiology field achieved results that are relevant for cryopreservation activities.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":10897,"journal":{"name":"Cryobiology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2024-05-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140956605","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
