“…With all this in mind, we assume that new promising predictors may evaluate graft quality at the end of the cold storage/cold ischemia step such as glutamate dehydrogenase (mitochondrial damage), ALDH2 (mitochondrial function), succinate and itaconate accumulations, and flavin mononucleotide (FMN); in contrast to HOPE, succinate and itaconate metabolites have a predictive value at early oxygenation/reperfusion times, including FMN [ 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 ]. Moreover, we could logically assume that the use of a unique solution, such as IGL-2 [ 81 ], could be an efficient and interesting tool to protect graft mitochondrial machinery and avoid the cumulative damage induced by the mandatory complex processes before transplantation, including organ recovery and its earlier washout, subsequent graft cold storage, and additional washout to finally proceed with HOPE strategies [ 25 , 67 , 68 , 69 , 70 , 71 , 72 ]. Certainly, the suitable use of a unique solution such as IGL-2 would simplify the logistics of liver transplantation, including also the combination of split liver transplantation with HOPE [ 82 , 83 ].…”
