Metabolite-enhanced normothermic machine perfusion improves kidney transplant viability

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.
