Prognostic significance of free radicals: mediated injury occurring in the kidney donor

Abstract: Free-radical mediated injury occurring in the donor and during preservation is strictly correlated with immediate and long-term kidney function. It may also cause grafts to be prone to acute rejection.

“…Moreover, recent studies report on a causal relationship between hemodynamic impairment and a systemic inflammatory response during BD (11,32). Recently, Kosieradzki et al showed that elevated MDA levels, indicative for oxidative/ischemic stress, in serum of human brain dead donors correlated with an inferior outcome after kidney transplantation (33). Our results on both the ROS formation in the kidney and systemic MDA, clearly indicate that ischemic stress primarily occurs in the later phases of BD.…”

“…Glutathione-S-transferase (GST), a more specific marker of renal tubular injury, and Heart-type fatty acid binding protein (HFABP), generally released under ischemic conditions, have also shown good correlations with DGF [29]. Other biomarkers of potential interest as implicated in the process of ischemia/reperfusion injury are N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminidase (NAG) [29], malondialdehyde (MDA) [30], redox-active iron [31], and IL-18. IL-18 in particular, released by mononuclear cells in response to oxidative stress, has been associated with PNF in controlled and uncontrolled DCD kidney transplants [28].…”

“…83,84 However, it is uncertain whether the beneficial effect of corticosteroids in cadaveric donors is a result of hormonal replacement or a modulatory effect of the inflammatory process described after the NDD. 21,[85][86][87][88] A recent consensus has recommended that donors with a left ventricular ejection fraction of less than 45% after standard management be treated with a combination of methylprednisolone, T3, and vasopressin. 4,5 This recommendation is supported by an observational study involving 10,292 consecutive brain dead organ donors within the United Network for Organ Sharing database which showed a significant improvement in organ procurement and an increased odds of a donor becoming an organ donor if treated with triple hormonal therapy.…”

“…19 As a consequence of both the loss of sympathetic nervous system control and concomitant diabetes insipidus (DI), only a minority of cadaveric donors are able to maintain hemodynamic stability. [20][21][22][23] Cardiovascular monitoring and support Traditionally, dopamine has been used as the inotrope of choice in the cadaveric donor, however recent studies have not supported the beneficial effect of dopamine on renal or hepatosplanchnic circulation, and dopamine may suppress the function of anterior pituitary hormones. 24,25 Consequently, there has been a move towards the use of medications such as vasopressin for the vasodilatory shock seen in cadaveric donors.…”
