Ex vivo perfusion optimization of donor liver grafts for transplantation and cell isolation
… the use of suboptimal sources including damaged donor organs that are not transplantable. Many of these organs have potentially reversible pathologies however, that could be treated via ex vivo perfusion thereby increasing their cell yield. With the intent to translate organ recovery by perfusion …

Redesigning liver allocation regions through optimization
… is liver transplantation. Since the quality of a donor liver decreases with transportation time, United States organ policy prioritizes transplants within geographic regions. However, the boundaries of these regions were defined mostly by informal relationships between transplant centers many …

Marginal donor characteristics and outcomes after liver transplantation
… and medical care mean a reduced pool of “ideal donors” and the population age is increasing rapidly over time. There is a growing need for donor livers as the number of critically unwell recipients awaiting liver transplantation increases. The extended criteria donor liver has been increasingly …

Human Liver Organoids as models for investigating drug-induced liver injury
… capacity of these cells, the shortage of donor livers, and the inability to maintain their in vivo structural and functional identity in vitro. All of the above hurdles have been addressed with the advent of 3D epithelial structures called organoids, yet its use in the liver safety field …

Improvement of liver transplantation by reducing preservation-reperfusion injury
… to orthotopic liver transplantation. The donor liver was stored in Eurocollins solution for 3 hours. The animals were randomly allocated to either rearterialization 60 minutes after portal reperfusion, rearterialization 20 minutes after portal reperfusion, simultaneously portal and …
