系统监控看什么东西的时候试验运行良好，如: 一旦插管已经置于电路和肺部换气，有多种方法，以确保正常工作的系统。应该有整个管道无渗漏灌流液。肺血管阻力（PVR）应保持相对恒定（假设恒定的流量）。氧气交换应增加一次呼吸机工作正常，扩大肺部招募更多的肺泡进行气体交换。 图12a显示适当通风和灌注连接到EVLP电路人工胸廓内肺。 看什么东西的时候实验没有运行良好，如: 有迹象表明，曾发生过程中EVLP实验的开始阶段率最高的一些常见问题。第一个和最简单吨Ø补救措施是在该行从肺部排出泄漏。此下电路，并在贮存器的水平不断下降的部分是由灌流池的池引人注目。检查并拧紧周围的泄漏区域的任何管接头，检查管本身的泄漏。如果肺之前发生这种泄漏，它也可能会引入气泡进入肺部。这应尽可能快地补救作为气泡在灌注液会导致组织损伤，并导致在PVR一个显著增加。还可以有一个泄漏从肺或套管中的一个的到来。这可能是由一个套管的任一滑动或阻塞在出射线引起压力增加而引起的。检查两个套管，保证既不已经滑落或扭曲的位置。在此过程中，因为在PA压力瞬时增加是一个明显的迹象表明，最近已发生某种障碍物PA的压力也应加以监测。 图12B示出了破裂肺即破裂，由于高的压力。从肺本身甲泄漏也可以由在组织中的撕裂引起的。这个问题可能是也可能不是可修复而是重新定位和重新拧紧套管是在这种情况下的最佳选择。 学习要点/机会: 审判和前体肺灌注系统的错误的发展使我们能够确定我们在这里勾勒，以促进有效实施EVLP系统的几个关键问题。首先，对于采购，但重要的是标准麻醉技术遵循适当麻醉动物（足以麻醉剂，注射入腹膜）和遵守需要所有IACUC策略。插管（ 图13中的A，B和C示出），应反复冲洗以除去肺vasculat内的任何凝块和/或碎屑URE。对于动物的选择，我们建议您使用只SD或路易斯大鼠，体重250-350克。应特别注意cannulating大鼠，体重接近至250g由于船只将会更小，因此更难以不损伤脉管到导管插入时可采取。如果小鼠或小鼠模型中，将被使用的，更小的套管可能需要被使用。 气管插管是不是通常的缝合时，首先通过一个丝线缝合后气管解剖周围筋膜和前插管后妥善固定，只要挑战。按照这个与前切口1-2气管环缝合上述通过套管。为了更好的安全性（ 图4C）的凹槽内固定配合方形结在气管环之间。与气管插管相比肺动脉（PA）的插管是更具挑战性。下面的步骤在本研究中使用对于此过程。首先，把握心脏先端具一对镊子。通过另一对镊子在横窦和线程的缝合线固定在近端的PA套管。紧接在右心室流出道（RVOT）（ 图14A）之前切开右心室。该切口进入RVOT后，套管将朝向肺动脉流出道被引导。具有在肺动脉/主动脉后面位置缝合右ventriculotomy前提高了效率（ 图5C）。插管应该固定到位与缝线，以防止脱出。一个主要的并发症可能发生，如果在PA插管是不是在正确的解剖方向。插管可以被插入太远，仅灌注一个分支或成为失当定位在除去从胸腔的心脏 - 肺标本的扭转。这可以很容易地被定向回原来位置，以保持anatomi的适当的角度CAL位置。最后，左心房（LA）插管的过程中最具挑战性的部分。对LA插管需要被放置在左心房内。与组织是非常易碎的，心不使用显著力或扭转以防止肺静脉与左心房这会再进行实验无法挽救内的撕裂。该PA套管的LA插管前，最好放置。阿左ventriculotomy与去除的顶点的已被证明扰乱cordae tendinae并允许通过二尖瓣小叶更容易获得。另外，ventriculotomy可以更容易地扩张和可视化的二尖瓣和通过二尖瓣喂插管。二尖瓣环带一对小钝端皮卡的扩张可以以可视化的道成LA（ 图14B）来完成。缝线应插管前，放在背后的心脏。这可以简单地通过使用一对SMAL起吊的​​心脏向上进行升钝端皮卡和放置下方缝合和整个心脏。洛杉矶是现在可以插管。饲料通过皮卡的LA套管，以正确的可视化安置的套管进入左心房。请特别注意不要打跑套管回左心室。缝线应该然后沿左心室的心肌被紧密地固定。固定缝合到左心房可能阻塞整个或插管的一部分。 在手术过程中，至关重要的是，没有空气留在装置的流入部分。任何显著空气可以产生空气栓塞增加的PVR（有效"空气锁定"），这将导致低得多的灌液流对于给定的压力。的各个点可以用来在系统内除去空气。流出部内的空气被预期并且不应该对肺的任何有害作用。肺动脉高压猪模型已经示重新创建从在8周的时间内连续少量空气的病理。该增加的空气减少的灌注的存在量而引起炎症到周围组织19。 灌注的开始可以发生，一旦插管已完成，但距离LA前的管来连接到EVLP线。灌流应通过运行，以清除任何血块，这灌流可以清空到胸壁没有任何问题。切换灌流泵为手动模式，并缓慢增加流量〜2毫升/分钟允许密切监测PA的压力。压力在20-30 CMH 2 O可以指示障碍物，看的灌流退出LA也是一个指标，但是这可能是很难看到的。如果压力不增加至超过20-30 CMH 2 O，停泵，并重新检查均插管。一旦压力恒定10-20 CMH 2 O允许日Ë灌流液，以2分钟贯穿而进入胸腔。此时距离LA的线可以连接到EVLP电路。灌流泵速度可提高到5-10毫升/分钟。当流体头前进通过电路，将有增加PA的压力，由于增加的流体头部的高度，因此，该静压力。如果流体不能流过的最高点的线，就可能有必要要么施加抽吸力就行的相对端或试图降低线的最高部分。一旦这个问题得到解决，灌流液循环应该没有任何问题。 几个问题应相对于所述呼吸监测。第一，可能会发生支气管/气管和心脏 - 肺位置的扭转如肺部变得更加水肿和重量增大。它对于套管保持在相对紧密的解剖位置，因此改变是重要的一个或两个套管E可以是必要的。压力或体积控制通气机以及正或负通气可用于本EVLP系统。对于大鼠模型中，我们用积极的压力，体积控制的通风效果很好，在4-10之间毫升/千克，并在2-8 CMH 2 O.之间的呼气末压力（PEEP）潮气量发现然而，8 水柱一个PEEP可以在气管的分岔导致可能的破裂。每个实验后（或一组实验，如果进行背到背），通风线通向气管应清洗任何支气管肺泡灌洗（BAL）液，可能已到达了气管。这种液体会变硬，如果保持不变，并可以完全阻塞通风线。 灌注液组合物，是一个成功的EVLP实验的关键。将5％的葡聚糖混合物允许肺灌注即接近生理条件，保持一个稳定的胶体渗透压驱动液BACK插入血管以防止水肿，并防止肺血管内血栓形成。要注意的是一些物种大鼠可以是过敏葡聚糖这可能会导致肺水肿20是很重要的。灌注液中的内容是跨所有实验组一致的在这项研究中，因此，葡聚糖含量不应该是一个混杂因素。的胶体渗透压是具有提高或产生组织水肿的潜在的关键变量。被冷静态存储或常温灌注优化市售灌注液已被用于在本系统中，以增加肺生存能力次。我们注意到，一些这些解决方案包含白蛋白和一个值得关注的是牛血清白蛋白的触发在啮齿动物的肺的炎症反应的可能性。虽然最优灌注液组合物是调查的一个正在进行的课题，灌注液需要考虑的胶体渗透压，渗透压和缓冲能力。 W¯¯Ë建议的溶液可基于修饰的Krebs-Henseleit溶液或细胞培养基。的胶体渗透压应由葡聚糖或白蛋白进行维护，这取决于应用。的灌注压和流量影响器官和超生理灌注参数可以使器官发生机械损伤。 实验过程中视觉指标: 有许多视觉线索，以及从可用于确定是否一个EVLP实验运行良好的实时数据指示。肺将保持在相同的大小和将放气到每次呼吸后相同体积。也将有没有来自肺本身泄漏。的PVR，肺的重量，和遵守将保持相对恒定。氧气产量将保持不变或略有增加。 有些情况下，肺部的实验过程中变得损害了许多视觉上的指标。肺水肿成为一个次在尺寸和重量增长迅速。的肺的变化（从褐色粉红色至白）和液体袋的颜色可以在组织被识别。如果从气压伤或过度扩张气管或肺部破裂，就会有气泡从点伤（ 图12B）。氧的生产将减少，并且PVR和遵守将显着增加。 使用小动物的EVLP模型中，诸如啮齿类动物的电位打开门供未来研究改善肺移植的治疗。然而，在小动物模型需要更好地了解真正模仿肺移植。该模型可能在将来被用来改善药物治疗和为将来的肺移植研究确定基线参数。

临床意义目前可供移植的肺合适的，只有19％的肺能够在全国范围内利用导致旷日持久的等待列表的时间或死亡患者等待移植1的缺乏。这种短缺可能是因为年龄大捐助者，外伤，感染，多系统器官功能衰竭和收获2时，有时受伤供体肺。此外，肺是胸腔和标准的运输和保存技术以外的体弱器官可导致劣化和非存活肺部。因此，维持和改善肺活力的前体最近成为肺移植医学的一大重点。 离体肺灌注（EVLP） 离体肺灌注（EVLP）已发展到持续灌注器官正在评估移植，使一个时期的评估，所有OWS肺复苏或再生的潜力。 EVLP可以延长的总出身体器官缺血时间，并允许捐赠器官前往更远的距离3。典型地，肺部通气，在30％50％总的肺容量或20 水柱与吸入氧的一小部分的峰值气道压力（氧合指数2）70％的4。保存溶液灌注在40-60毫升/公斤（100毫升/公斤预测心输出量的大约40％）在人类和大型动物5,6，但灌注在20％左右的心输出量为大鼠7。列入STEEN解决方案使人体肺部在RT环境无肺水肿9开发旅游。这种开拓性的工作已经细化了多伦多大学的肺移植计划10-13，并正在评估边际供体肺移植14,15改善的评估。然而，最优ventilatio以再生边缘和/或低于标准的肺移植需要n和灌注条件是未知的，目前是一个活跃的研究领域。 隔离肺灌注系统已被用于在小动物引起的肺损伤，重新创建呼吸道疾病，并灌注以不同的解决方案的肺部，以防止缺血损伤。研究者已经通过使用分离的肺灌注系统以模仿，可以在人类和较大的动物16-18中使用的EVLP协议创建的肺移植的小动物模型。然而，该实验模型具有关于用于模拟人体生理学的各种技术和参数许多挑战。特别是，有许多微妙之处EVLP过程中保持肺的可行性。这些细微之处可能发生由于在收割技术中，正压通气设置，灌注液的组成和流动条件和肺的插管的差异。疗法安伏，这里的目标是提供研究界与一些，我们已经发现导致了可靠的方法用于在啮齿动物模型实施EVLP故障排除和执行提示。

method of isolated ex vivo lung perfusion in a rat model: lessons learned from developing a rat evlp program

可用于肺移植接受供体肺的数量是非常有限的，由于质量差。 离体肺灌注（EVLP）已获准在人类肺移植变得更容易获得通过使评估机构，扩大捐助池的能力。作为这种技术的扩展和改进，以潜在地评估和改进不合肺移植前的质量的能力是一个重要的需求。为了更严格地评估这些方法中，一个再现的动物模型需要建立将允许对改进的技术测试捐赠肺部和管理，以及对肺移植接受者。此外，相关的病状， 例如一个EVLP动物模型中，通气性肺损伤（VILI），将提供一种新的方法，以评价对这些疾病的治疗方法。在这里，我们描述了一个大鼠肺EVLP程序和改进的发展，这个我的ThOD允许用于将来扩展的可重现模型。我们还描述了本EVLP系统的应用建模VILI大鼠肺部。我们的目标是提供研究界提供关键信息和"珍珠智慧"/技术，出现了从试验和错误，并建立一个EVLP系统，强大的和可重复性的关键。

通过数据采集程序收集的实时机械数据可以很容易地进行分析，以测试任何数量的假设。例如， 图10A示出了通过60分钟从10大鼠实验中动物换气以4毫升/千克和2的低潮气量/低PEEP CMH 2 O的平均肺重量虽然在整个实验一非常轻微的增加在肺的重量，这增加不是统计学上显著（ANOVA，P = 0.92）。 图10B示出了从12大鼠实验的平均肺动脉压（PAP）通过60分钟。在0分钟时间点较低的PAP是在所有实验和PAP的开始使用低流量和通风设置，结果仍然没有统计学显著改变这个时间点之后常数t = 10分钟（ANOVA的行列后，P = 0.89）。 图10C示出了肺血管阻力（PVR），通过60分钟从12鼠实验虽然有小幅度下降PVR吨= 20分钟后，出现了这个实验过程中PVR无统计学差异显著（ANOVA秩，P = 0.65）。相较于此处示出的PVR的数据，野田等人 。已示出的PVR的稍微增加随时间4小时。然而，这些作者报告数据中的PVR开始在1小时，代替在实验的开始和被提供7没有标准偏差的值。野田等人 。也没有显示肺水肿的数据为4小时实验所以没有比较可以与这里在图10A中呈现的数据作出。在野田等人的主要区别。过程相比，现在示出在本文中包括:一个1小时冷保存在EVLP之前LPS溶液，将大鼠最初通气，气体混合物包括异氟烷，以使其失去知觉，灌流溶液补充有50毫克甲泼尼龙和50毫克头孢菌素，总FL流被定义为所计算出的心输出量的20％，灌注液取样之后才肺已通风的100％的O 2，以便事先5分钟，并在实验运行4小时。 从灌注液在实验过程中所采取的样品也可用于多种目的分析。作为一个例子，在图11中，我们展示了如何高的潮气量/高PEEP换气可诱导在60分钟的促炎性响应。对于这些实验，从4只大鼠灌流损害性的条件下， 即 10毫升/公斤，8高PEEP 水柱高的潮气量下通风，均使用标准亲和抗炎细胞因子IL1β，TNFα和IL-4分析ELISA技术。 如图11，相比于细胞因子水平通气前（0分钟），损害通气60分钟，导致了IL-1β和TNFα（促炎性细胞因子）一个具有统计学显著增加<html>次中的IL-4无变化（抗炎细胞因子）的浓度。因此，这种EVLP系统能够产生肺损伤型材机械通气时通常观察到的。 <img alt="图1" src="/files/ftp_upload/52309/52309fig1highres.jpg" /> 图1.图和照片，小动物离体肺灌注（EVLP）电路。英皇图中匹配与照片的信件。 <a href="https://jove.unicartagenaproxy.elogim.com/files/ftp_upload/52309/52309fig1large.jpg" target="_blank">请点击此处查看该图的放大版本。</a> <img alt="图2" src="/files/ftp_upload/52309/52309fig2highres.jpg" /> 图2.所有的传感器都牢固地连接到控制箱。"&gt;请点击此处查看该图的放大版本。 <img alt="图3" src="/files/ftp_upload/52309/52309fig3highres.jpg" /> 图3.大鼠手术台牢固地建立了相邻的体外灌注肺（EVLP）电路。 <a href="https://jove.unicartagenaproxy.elogim.com/files/ftp_upload/52309/52309fig3large.jpg" target="_blank">请点击此处查看该图的放大版本。</a> <img alt="图4" src="/files/ftp_upload/52309/52309fig4highres.jpg" /> 图4（A）的一个切口，颅暴露气管。胸腔不露出。 （B）用丝线缝合放置气管后面。 （C）的气管被部分地切割以用于插管准备。 （D）中的气管插管放入positio<html> n和固定用丝线缝合。 <a href="https://jove.unicartagenaproxy.elogim.com/files/ftp_upload/52309/52309fig4large.jpg" target="_blank">请点击此处查看该图的放大版本。</a> <img alt="图5" src="/files/ftp_upload/52309/52309fig5highres.jpg" /> 图5.（A）中的胸腔被拉回，以允许进入心脏和肺。 （B）准备将缝合肺动脉后面。 （ 三）肺动脉插管，用绑在前面放置丝线缝合。（D）低K +电解质溶液是通过肺动脉和出左心房冲洗，以去除任何血块。 <a href="https://jove.unicartagenaproxy.elogim.com/files/ftp_upload/52309/52309fig5large.jpg" target="_blank">请点击此处查看大图版本这个数字。</a> lways"&gt; <img alt="图6" src="/files/ftp_upload/52309/52309fig6highres.jpg" /> 图6.增加肺动脉流速冲洗时肺部可引起肺动脉压力急剧增加。如果被正确执行插管并没有什么大堵塞，压力应该降低。 <a href="https://jove.unicartagenaproxy.elogim.com/files/ftp_upload/52309/52309fig6large.jpg" target="_blank">请点击此处查看该图的放大版本。 。</a> <img alt="图7" src="/files/ftp_upload/52309/52309fig7highres.jpg" /> 图7.丝线缝合放在围绕整个心脏，准备左心房插管。 <a href="https://jove.unicartagenaproxy.elogim.com/files/ftp_upload/52309/52309fig7large.jpg" target="_blank">请点击此处查看该图的放大版本。</a> 正页="总是"&gt; <img alt="图8" src="/files/ftp_upload/52309/52309fig8highres.jpg" /> 图8.左心房插管固定到位用丝线缝合。 <a href="https://jove.unicartagenaproxy.elogim.com/files/ftp_upload/52309/52309fig8large.jpg" target="_blank">请点击此处查看该图的放大版本。</a> <img alt="图9" src="/files/ftp_upload/52309/52309fig9highres.jpg" /> 图9.（A）中的肺动脉插管连接到离体肺灌注回路。 （B）中的食道夹紧和结缔组织是钝性分离以除去心脏肺集团。 （C）的心脏-肺集团从胸腔除去并放置到离体肺灌注回路。 （D）中的左心房被连接到离体肺灌注回路。<html> HREF ="htt​​ps://jove.unicartagenaproxy.elogim.com/files/ftp_upload/52309/52309fig9large.jpg"目标="_空白"&gt;点击此处查看该图的放大版本。 <img alt="图10" src="/files/ftp_upload/52309/52309fig10highres.jpg" /> 图通过离体肺灌注（N = 10），60分钟10（A）重隆雄性SD大鼠。 （B）雄性SD大鼠，通过离体肺灌注（N = 12）的60分钟肺动脉压力。 （C）雄性SD大鼠，通过离体肺灌注（N = 12）的60分钟肺血管阻力，NS表示没有统计学差异显著。 <a href="https://jove.unicartagenaproxy.elogim.com/files/ftp_upload/52309/52309fig10large.jpg" target="_blank">请点击此处查看该图的放大版本。</a> <img alt="&lt;/ HTML"><html> "图11"SRC ="/文件/ ftp_upload / 52309 / 52309fig11highres.jpg"/&gt; 图11.影响的大潮卷上亲和抗炎细胞因子浓度1小时通风（10毫升/公斤）和高PEEP（8 CMH 2 O）的灌流液。N = 4，*表示有统计学差异显著对于0小时样品（P &lt;0.05）。 <a href="https://jove.unicartagenaproxy.elogim.com/files/ftp_upload/52309/52309fig11large.jpg" target="_blank">请点击此处查看该图的放大版本。</a> <img alt="图12" src="/files/ftp_upload/52309/52309fig12highres.jpg" /> 图12.（A）有适当通风和灌注肺连接到EVLP电路。 （B）高正呼气末正压（PEEP）导致撕裂的气管分叉导致泡沫形成的伤害，并填写了人工胸部。<html> ES / ftp_upload / 52309 / 52309fig12large.jpg"目标="_空白"&gt;点击此处查看该图的放大版本。 <img alt="图13" src="/files/ftp_upload/52309/52309fig13highres.jpg" /> 图13.（A）肺动脉导管。此套管是比左心房套管小。 （B）左心房套管。此套管比肺动脉套管大得多。 （C）套管气管。该套管有肋骨在确保用丝线缝合气管帮助。被插入气管年底也略有指向插入套管进入气管，以帮助。 <a href="https://jove.unicartagenaproxy.elogim.com/files/ftp_upload/52309/52309fig13large.jpg" target="_blank">请点击此处查看该图的放大版本。</a> 09fig14highres.jpg"/&gt; 图14.（A）中的心脏顶点是由一对钳子的作为右心室是大约以导管插入肺动脉被切开举行。 （B）二尖瓣环带一对小钝端皮卡的扩张使得它更容易可视化道进入左心房。 <a href="https://jove.unicartagenaproxy.elogim.com/files/ftp_upload/52309/52309fig14large.jpg" target="_blank">请点击此处查看该图的放大版本。</a>

Angiogenesis in the Ischemic Rat Lung

The adult lung is perfused by both the systemic bronchial artery and the entire venous return flowing through the pulmonary arteries. In most lung pathologies, it is the smaller systemic vasculature that responds to a need for enhanced lung perfusion and shows robust neovascularization. Pulmonary vascular ischemia induced by pulmonary artery obstruction has been shown to result in rapid systemic arterial angiogenesis in man as well as in several animal models. Although the histologic assessment of the time course of bronchial artery proliferation in rats was carefully described by Weibel 1, mechanisms responsible for this organized growth of new vessels are not clear. We provide surgical details of inducing left pulmonary artery ischemia in the rat that leads to bronchial neovascularization. Quantification of the extent of angiogenesis presents an additional challenge due to the presence of the two vascular beds within the lung. Methods to determine functional angiogenesis based on labeled microsphere injections are provided.

The lung is perfused by both the systemic bronchial artery and pulmonary arteries. In most lung pathologies, it is the smaller systemic vasculature that shows robust neovascularization. Cessation of pulmonary blood flow promotes brisk bronchial angiogenesis. We provide surgical details of inducing left pulmonary artery ischemia that promotes bronchial neovascularization.

A Simple Method of Mouse Lung Intubation

A simple procedure to intubate mice for pulmonary function measurements would have several advantages in longitudinal studies with limited numbers or expensive animal. One of the reasons that this is not done more routinely is that it is relatively difficult, despite there being several published studies that describe ways to achieve it. In this paper we demonstrate a procedure that eliminates one of the major hurdles associated with this intubation, that of visualizing the trachea during the entire time of intubation. The approach uses a 0.5 mm fiberoptic light source that serves as an introducer to direct the intubation cannula into the mouse trachea. We show that it is possible to use this procedure to measure lung mechanics in individual mice over a time course of at least several weeks. The technique can be set up with relatively little expense and expertise, and it can be routinely accomplished with relatively little training. This should make it possible for any laboratory to routinely carry out this intubation, thereby allowing longitudinal studies in individual mice, thereby minimizing the number of mice needed and increasing the statistical power by using each mouse as its own control.

This paper describes a striaghforward and efficient method of intubating mice for pulmonary function measurements or pulmonary instillation, that allows the mice to recover and be studied at later times. The procedure involves an inexpensive fiberoptic light source that directly illuminates the trachea.

Glaucoma-inducing Procedure in an In Vivo Rat Model and Whole-mount Retina Preparation

Glaucoma is a disease of the central nervous system affecting retinal ganglion cells (RGCs). RGC axons making up the optic nerve carry visual input to the brain for visual perception. Damage to RGCs and their axons leads to vision loss and/or blindness. Although the specific cause of glaucoma is unknown, the primary risk factor for the disease is an elevated intraocular pressure. Glaucoma-inducing procedures in animal models are a valuable tool to researchers studying the mechanism of RGC death. Such information can lead to the development of effective neuroprotective treatments that could aid in the prevention of vision loss. The protocol in this paper describes a method of inducing glaucoma - like conditions in an in vivo rat model where 50 &#181;l of 2 M hypertonic saline is injected into the episcleral venous plexus. Blanching of the vessels indicates successful injection. This procedure causes loss of RGCs to simulate glaucoma. One month following injection, animals are sacrificed and eyes are removed. Next, the cornea, lens, and vitreous are removed to make an eyecup. The retina is then peeled from the back of the eye and pinned onto sylgard dishes using cactus needles. At this point, neurons in the retina can be stained for analysis. Results from this lab show that approximately 25% of RGCs are lost within one month of the procedure when compared to internal controls. This procedure allows for quantitative analysis of retinal ganglion cell death in an in vivo rat glaucoma model.

Method of Direct Segmental Intra-hepatic Delivery Using a Rat Liver Hilar Clamp Model

Major hepatic surgery with inflow occlusion, and liver transplantation, necessitate a period of warm ischemia, and a period of reperfusion leading to ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury with myriad negative consequences. Potential I/R injury in marginal organs destined for liver transplantation contributes to the current donor shortage secondary to a decreased organ utilization rate. A significant need exists to explore hepatic I/R injury in order to mediate its impact on graft function in transplantation. Rat liver hilar clamp models are used to investigate the impact of different molecules on hepatic I/R injury. Depending on the model, these molecules have been delivered using inhalation, epidural infusion, intraperitoneal injection, intravenous administration or injection into the peripheral superior mesenteric vein. A rat liver hilar clamp model has been developed for use in studying the impact of pharmacologic molecules in ameliorating I/R injury. The described model for rat liver hilar clamp includes direct cannulation of the portal supply to the ischemic hepatic segment via a side branch of the portal vein, allowing for direct segmental hepatic delivery. Our approach is to induce ischemia in the left lateral and median lobes for 60 min, during which time the substance under study is infused. In this case, pegylated-superoxide dismutase (PEG-SOD), a free radical scavenger, is infused directly into the ischemic segment. This series of experiments demonstrates that infusion of PEG-SOD is protective against hepatic I/R injury. Advantages of this approach include direct injection of the molecule into the ischemic segment with consequent decrease in volume of distribution and reduction in systemic side effects.

A unique rat liver hilar clamp model was developed for studying the impact of pharmacologic molecules in ameliorating ischemia-reperfusion injury.

A Small Animal Model of Ex Vivo Normothermic Liver Perfusion

There is a significant shortage of liver allografts available for transplantation, and in response the donor criteria have been expanded. As a result, normothermic ex vivo liver perfusion (NEVLP) has been introduced as a method to evaluate and modify organ function. NEVLP has many advantages in comparison to hypothermic and subnormothermic perfusion including reduced preservation injury, restoration of normal organ function under physiologic conditions, assessment of organ performance, and as a platform for organ repair, remodeling, and modification. Both murine and porcine NEVLP models have been described. We demonstrate a rat model of NEVLP and use this model to show one of its important applications &#8212; the use of a therapeutic molecule added to liver perfusate. Catalase is an endogenous reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenger and has been demonstrated to decrease ischemia-reperfusion in the eye, brain, and lung. Pegylation has been shown to target catalase to the endothelium. Here, we added pegylated-catalase (PEG-CAT) to the base perfusate and demonstrated its ability to mitigate liver preservation injury. An advantage of our rodent NEVLP model is that it is inexpensive in comparison to larger animal models. A limitation of this study is that it does not currently include post-perfusion liver transplantation. Therefore, prediction of the function of the organ post-transplantation cannot be made with certainty. However, the rat liver transplant model is well established and certainly could be used in conjunction with this model. In conclusion, we have demonstrated an inexpensive, simple, easily replicable NEVLP model using rats. Applications of this model can include testing novel perfusates and perfusate additives, testing software designed for organ evaluation, and experiments designed to repair organs.

A Rat Lung Transplantation Model of Warm Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury: Optimizations to Improve Outcomes

From our experience with rat lung transplantation, we have found several areas for improvement. Information in the existing literature regarding methods for choosing appropriate cuff sizes for the pulmonary vein (PV), pulmonary artery (PA), or bronchus (Br) are varied, thus making the determination of proper cuff size during rat lung transplantation an exercise of trial and error. By standardizing the cuffing technique to use the smallest effective cuff appropriate for the size of the vessel or bronchus, one can make the transplantation procedure safer, faster, and more successful. Since diameters of the PV, PA, and Br are related to the body weight of the rat, we present a strategy to choosing an appropriate size using a weight-based guide. Since lung volume is also related to body weight, we recommend that this relationship should also be considered when choosing the proper volume of air for donor lung inflation during warm ischemia as well as for the proper volume of PBS to be instilled during bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid collection. We also describe methods for 4th intercostal space dissection, wound closure, and sample collection from both the native and transplanted lobes.

Here, we present optimizations to a rat lung transplantation model that serve to improve outcomes. We provide a size guide for cuffs based on body weight, a measurement strategy to ascertain the 4th intercostal space, and methods of wound closure and BAL (bronchoalveolar lavage) fluid and tissue collection.

Isolated Lung Perfusion System in the Rabbit Model

The isolated lung perfusion system has been widely used in pulmonary research, contributing to elucidate the lungs&#39; inner workings, both micro and macroscopically. This technique is useful in the characterization of pulmonary physiology and pathology by measuring metabolic activities and respiratory functions, including interactions between circulatory substances and the effects of inhaled or perfused substances, as in drug testing. While in vitro methods involve the slicing and culturing of tissues, the isolated ex vivo lung perfusion system allows to work with a complete functional organ making possible the study of a continuous physiological function while recreating ventilation and perfusion. However, it should be noted that the effects of the absence of central innervation and lymphatic drainage still have to be fully assessed. This protocol aims to describe the assembly of the isolated lung apparatus, followed by the surgical extraction and cannulation of lungs and heart from experimental lab animals, as well as to display the perfusion technique and signal processing of data. The average viability of the isolated lung ranges between 5-8 h; during this period, the pulmonary capillary permeability increases, causing edema and lung injury. The functionality of preserved pulmonary tissue is measured by the capillary filtration coefficient (Kfc), used to determine the extent of pulmonary edema through time.

The isolated rabbit lung preparation is a gold standard tool in pulmonary research. This publication aims to describe the technique as developed for the study of physiological and pathological mechanisms involved in airway reactivity, lung preservation, and preclinical research in lung transplantation and pulmonary edema.

Normothermic Negative Pressure Ventilation Ex Situ Lung Perfusion: Evaluation of Lung Function and Metabolism

Lung transplantation (LTx) remains the standard of care for end-stage lung disease. A shortage of suitable donor organs and concerns over donor organ quality exacerbated by excessive geographic transportation distance and stringent donor organ acceptance criteria pose limitations to current LTx efforts. Ex situ lung perfusion (ESLP) is an innovative technology that has shown promise in attenuating these limitations. The physiologic ventilation and perfusion of the lungs outside of the inflammatory milieu of the donor body affords ESLP several advantages over traditional cold static preservation (CSP). There is evidence that negative pressure ventilation (NPV) ESLP is superior to positive pressure ventilation (PPV) ESLP, with PPV inducing more significant ventilator-induced lung injury, pro-inflammatory cytokine production, pulmonary edema, and bullae formation. The NPV advantage is perhaps due to the homogenous distribution of intrathoracic pressure across the entire lung surface. The clinical safety and feasibility of a custom NPV-ESLP device have been demonstrated in a recent clinical trial involving extender criteria donor (ECD) human lungs. Herein, the use of this custom device is described in a juvenile porcine model of normothermic NPV-ESLP over a 12 h duration, paying particular attention to management techniques. Pre-surgical preparation, including ESLP software initialization, priming, and de-airing of the ESLP circuit, and the addition of anti-thrombotic, anti-microbial, and anti-inflammatory agents, is specified. The intraoperative techniques of central line insertion, lung biopsy, exsanguination, blood collection, cardiectomy, and pneumonectomy are described. Furthermore, particular focus is paid to anesthetic considerations, with anesthesia induction, maintenance, and dynamic modifications outlined. The protocol also specifies the custom device's initialization, maintenance, and termination of perfusion and ventilation. Dynamic organ management techniques, including alterations in ventilation and metabolic parameters to optimize organ function, are thoroughly described. Finally, the physiological and metabolic assessment of lung function is characterized and depicted in the representative results.

Retinal Pathophysiological Evaluation in a Rat Model

A posterior segment eye disease like diabetic retinopathy alters the physiology of the retina. Diabetic retinopathy is characterized by a retinal detachment, breakdown of the blood-retinal barrier (BRB), and retinal angiogenesis. An in vivo rat model is a valuable experimental tool to examine the changes in the structure and function of the retina. We propose three different experimental techniques in the rat model to identify morphological changes of retinal cells, retinal vasculature, and compromised BRB. Retinal histology is used to study the morphology of various retinal cells. Also, quantitative measurement is performed by retinal cell count and thickness measurement of different retinal layers. A BRB breakdown assay is used to determine the leakage of extraocular proteins from the plasma to vitreous tissue due to the breakdown of BRB. Fluorescence angiography is used to study angiogenesis and leakage of blood vessels by visualizing retinal vasculature using FITC-dextran dye.

Diabetic retinopathy is one of the leading causes of blindness. Histology, blood-retinal barrier breakdown assay, and fluorescence angiography are valuable techniques to understand the pathophysiology of the retina, which could further enhance the efficient drug screening against diabetic retinopathy.
