Total respiratory support from swine lungs in primate recipients

Abstract: Hyperacute pulmonary xenograft rejection can be prevented by pretransplantation swine lung perfusion. Swine pulmonary xenografts can provide complete respiratory support in primates when rejection is prevented.

“…Swine is the most commonly used large animal model of lung transplantation; often in studies of drug effects on ischemia/reperfusion injury [3,[7][8][9][10], EVLP [1,3] and in xenotransplantation [11,12]. An adequate understanding of pig lung anatomy is important for those beginning experimental protocols.…”

“…Un certain nombre de cas néces-sitant la restauration urgente des fonctions hépatiques (hépa-tite fulminante, agents hépatotoxiques, dysfonctionnement primaire) pourraient ainsi être traités par une xénogreffe en attendant qu'un greffon allogénique soit disponible. Des études ont également montré que des greffes orthotopiques de coeur et de poumons permettaient la survie de primates tant que ces organes n'étaient pas rejetés [9][10][11]. Chez le macaque rendu diabétique par administration de streptozotocine, des îlots pancréatiques porcins injectés par voie intraportale sont capables de restaurer la normoglycémie tant qu'un rejet de type cellulaire ne les détruit pas [12].…”

“…Studies in non-human primates suggest that the kidneys, hearts and lungs of pigs would function sufficiently in a human to sustain life [53, 101, 102]. The main functional impairment of these xenogeneic organ grafts is from rejection.…”
