Abstract: | Hypothermic static cold storage and machine perfusion strategies remain the clinical standard of care for liver graft preservation. Recently, the protection of the mitochondrial function and the energetic levels derived from it has emerged as one of the key points for organ preservation. However, the complex interactions between liver mitochondrial protection and its relation with the use of solutions/perfusates has been poorly investigated. The use of an alternative IGL-2 solution to Belzer MPS one for hypothermic oxygenated perfusion (HOPE), as well as in static cold storage, introduce a new kind of perfusate to be used for liver grafts subjected to HOPE strategies, either alone or in combination with hypothermic static preservation strategies. IGL-2 not only protected mitochondrial integrity, but also avoided the mixture of different solutions/perfusates reducing. Thus, the operational logistics and times prior to transplantation, a critical factor when suboptimal organs such as donation after circulatory death or steatotic ones, are used for transplantation. The future challenges in graft preservation will go through (1) the improvement of the mitochondrial status and its energetic status during the ischemia and (2) the development of strategies to reduce ischemic times at low temperatures, which should translate in a better transplantation outcome. |
