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.

Having trouble reading a PDF?
PDFs are designed to be printed out and read, but if you prefer to read them online, you may find it easier if you increase the view size to 125%.
Having trouble saving a PDF?
Many versions of the free Acrobat Reader do not allow Save. You must instead save the PDF from the JCI Online page you downloaded it from. PC users: Right-click on the Download link and choose the option that says something like "Save Link As...". Mac users should hold the mouse button down on the link to get these same options.
Having trouble printing a PDF?
- Try printing one page at a time or to a newer printer.
- Try saving the file to disk before printing rather than opening it "on the fly." This requires that you configure your browser to "Save" rather than "Launch Application" for the file type "application/pdf", and can usually be done in the "Helper Applications" options.
- Make sure you are using the latest version of Adobe's Acrobat Reader.
