using an isolated working rat heart model to test donor heart preservation strategies

The success of a heart transplant can be greatly influenced by the preservation method used for the donor heart. Donor hearts are subjected to ischemic insults throughout the organ retrieval, transport, and transplantation process. The degree of ischemic damage to the donor organ can be mitigated by selecting an appropriate donor heart preservation strategy. Cold static storage (CSS) remains the most feasible and common method for donor heart preservation; however, CSS may not necessarily be the best option for all heart donation pathways. For example, hearts procured via the donation after circulatory death (DCD) pathway are maintained and assessed for viability using normothermic machine perfusion, whereas hearts procured via the donation after brain death (DBD) pathway can be preserved using CSS or hypothermic machine perfusion. Another important determinant for the preservation strategy used is the amount of either warm ischemia (for DCD) or cold ischemia (for DBD) the heart is subjected to during organ procurement and transportation.
Many centers use additional pharmacological supplementation of the heart preservation solution to increase ischemic tolerance and improve post-transplant heart function. Rodent studies from our laboratory showed that supplementation of cardioplegia with erythropoietin and glyceryl trinitrate was able to significantly improve cardiac functional recovery after prolonged cold storage of the donor heart1,2. These studies then progressed to porcine studies of donor heart preservation and provided the pre-clinical groundwork that led to the incorporation of erythropoietin and glyceryl trinitrate into the cardioplegia solution of hearts procured via a DCD pathway utilizing normothermic machine perfusion3,4,5. Currently, supplementation with erythropoietin and glyceryl trinitrate is also used in Australian transplant units for clinical DBD heart retrievals incorporating CSS. The overall goal of the isolated working rat heart (IWRH) perfusion protocol outlined below is to test donor heart preservation strategies in a laboratory setting and test their efficacy for preserving donor heart function after reperfusion. The isolated working rat heart protocol described has been used for over two decades within our laboratory and has proven extremely useful in screening for potential supplements and/or strategies that can improve donor heart preservation2,7,8,9.

Verwendung eines isolierten funktionierenden Rattenherzmodells zum Testen von Strategien zur Erhaltung des Spenderherzens

Our research uses an isolated rat heart perfusion circuit to test supplementation strategies for donor heart preservation. We aim to identify preservation strategies that can improve the functional recovery of donor hearts after either long periods of cold storage or long periods of warm ischemia following donation after circulatory death. The isolated work in rat heart protocol was used to initially test the current clinical donor heart preservation strategy of using glyceryl trinitrate and erythropoietin in the heart preservation solution.This provided the rationale for testing in a porcine heart transplant study before transitioning to the clinic. The advantage of using an isolated working rat heart perfusion protocol compared to Langendorff perfusion techniques is the ability to obtain functional measurements of the heart, such as aortic flow and cardiac output.

Optimization of donor heart preservation solutions has played a key role in reducing ischemia-reperfusion injury in donor hearts during organ retrieval, ...
