Our aims were (i) to compare inulin clearance after a short intravenous (IV) bolus with steady-state inulin IV infusion, (ii) to use this method to measure the glomerular filtration rate (GFR), and (iii) to determine the tubular secretory function using cefoxitin in a pig-to-baboon renal transplant model. A short IV infusion of inulin and cefoxitin were followed by a maintenance IV infusion of inulin over 5 h in seven healthy baboons, three healthy pigs, and five baboons after bilateral native nephrectomy and intra-abdominal pig renal transplantation. Blood and urine samples were collected. Serum and urinary inulin and serum cefoxitin concentrations measured by validated assays were used to calculate GFR and renal secretion. GFR calculated were similar by both methods. The body weight normalized total body clearance of inulin was similar in pigs and baboons despite differences in absolute clearances. Pig kidney transplanted into baboons provided similar clearance in baboons when normalized to baboon body weight and sustained filtration and secretory functions. The study documented that pig kidneys support the physiologic needs of baboons and are likely to support human recipients as well.</p>","PeriodicalId":23866,"journal":{"name":"Xenotransplantation","volume":"30 2","pages":"e12795"},"PeriodicalIF":3.9,"publicationDate":"2023-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10354795/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10198977","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These lobes are the duodenal (DL), splenic (SL) and connecting (CL) lobe that correspond to the head, body-tail, and uncinate process of the human pancreas. In this study we are the first to evaluate all three neonatal porcine pancreatic lobes and NPIs isolated from these lobes. We report, a significant difference in endocrine and progenitor cell composition between lobes, and observed pancreatic duct glands (PDG) within the mesenchyme surrounding exocrine ducts in the DL and CL. Following in vitro differentiation, NPIs isolated from each lobe differed significantly in the percent increase of endocrine cells and final cell composition. Compared to other recipients, diabetic immunodeficient mice transplanted with NPIs isolated from the SL demonstrated euglycemic control as early as 4 weeks (p < 0.05) and achieved normoglycemia by 6 weeks post-transplant (p < 0.01).
