In conclusion, BD induces renal C3 and FBG expression. Moreover, C3 expression is associated with a worse allograft function early after transplantation. Therefore, targeting renal APPs in brain-dead donors, especially complement C3, may improve transplant outcome.

The authors' in vitro experiments conclusively showed that the physiologic function of RBCs to form aggregates is significantly affected in the presence of HES. The use of high molecular weight HES in UW solution accounts for extended and accelerated aggregation of erythrocytes that may result in stasis of blood and incomplete washout of donor organs before transplantation.
