Popis: | Cold hypoxia and re-oxygenation during organ preservation leads to a variety of stresses, including expression of adhesion molecules, which can promote inflammatory responses and compromised function. These studies were undertaken to investigate the pro-inflammatory activities of factors present in the vascular bed at the end of cold storage in livers during clinical hepatic transplantation. Effluent perfusate (termed pro-inflammatory vascular effluent—PVE) washed out at the end of cold storage, was collected from 10 donor livers, and used in a bio-assay with cultured endothelial cells exposed to cold hypoxia and re-oxygenation. Adhesion molecule expressions for intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1) and E-selectin were measured using molecular techniques and Northern blot analyses. Cells exposed to PVE during warming showed up-regulation of both ICAM-1 and E-selectin (p |
