Yukarıdaki bölümlerde, yalıtma ve fare pankreas adacık nakli için ayrıntılı adımlar nitelendirdi. Burada, kısaca prosedürlerinin başarısı için kritik adımları vurgulayın. 1. Islet izolasyon 37 cannulating sonra koledok (2.3), pankreas dinç sallayarak, önemli adımlar koledok (2.2.3) duodenal açılış üzerinden hemostat kelepçe konumlandırma optimal bir enzimatik sindirim süresi (1.4) tespit. ° C sindirmek (3.2) ve ekzokrin hücre kontaminasyon (3.3.7 ve 3.3.16) kaldırılması. Bu adımlar, adacıklar kalite, verim ve saflık üzerinde dramatik bir etkisi var. Belki teknik olarak en zorlu adım koledok kanülasyonu. Birçok farelerde, koledok çevreleyen fasya nedeniyle görselleştirmek için zor olabilir. Bu nedenle, bu girişimleri sadece fasya doku penetrasyonu koledok sonucu cannulate için yaygındır. Bu gibi durumlarda, Liberase çevreleyen bağ dokusu doldurmaya başlar ve pankreas serpmek değildir. Bu görülürse, Liberase akışını durdurmak ve safra kanalı lümen içine nüfuz eder, böylece iğne yeniden konumlandırmak. Uygulama ile, hızlı iğne yerleşimi için en uygun pozisyonu belirlemek ve gevrek kanalı zarar vermeden kanülasyon tamamlamak mümkündür. 2. Adacık nakli Kritik adımlar, diyabet (5.1) STZ indüksiyon ve verimli bir şekilde teslim adacıklar subkapsüler çantası (5.3.14-5.3.16). STZ insülin salgılayan hücreler adacıklar 9 β-hücrelerinde seçici toksik doğal olarak bulunan bir glukoz analoğu. Ancak, bu seçici toksisite nispeten dar bir konsantrasyon aralığında oluşur. Bu STZ yüksek dozlarda hiperglisemi yokluğunda hızlı (2-3 gün) öldürücülüğü neden olabilir gerçeği kanıtladığı. Bu nedenle, herhangi bir büyük ölçekli deneyler başlatılan önce kullanılan farelerin zorlanma ve yaş için optimal doz STZ tanımlamak için dikkat edilmelidir. Subkapsüler kese adacıklar fiziki teslimat da önemli bir adımdır. Tutarlı sonuçlar elde etmek için, kendi doğum sırasında adacık kaybını en aza indirmek için zorunludur. Enjekte edilen hacim çok büyükse keseyi kaplayan böbrek kapsül defektleri veya yırtık ya da bu durum oluşabilir. Kapsül hasar ve subkapsüler çantası hazırlamak için düz cam prob kullanarak nazik ve dikkatli bir manipülasyon ile önlenebilir. Ayrıca, enjeksiyon hacmi adım 5.3.6.3 süpernatant dikkatli kaldırılması ile minimize edilebilir. Süpernatantı tortulaşmış adacıklar seviyeye çıkarılırsa, genellikle subkapsüler poşet 400 ila 500 adacık yerleştirmek için yeterli oda daha vardır. Ancak, enjeksiyon hacmi çok büyükse, adacıklar deney tekrarlanabilirlik ödün nakli işlemi sırasında kese sızıntı olasılığı daha yüksektir. Bu protokol kapsamında, bazı adımlar değiştirebilir ve yine de tatmin edici sonuçlar elde etmek mümkündür. Bunlar şunlardır: (a), pankreas sindirmek için farklı bir enzim kullanımı, (b), pankreas enzim sağlamak için farklı bir yöntem, (c) sürekli bir Ficoll-sodyum-diatrizoate (FSD) gradient kullanımı tek yoğunluğu Histopaque1077 adım, ve (d), böbrek subcapsule daha diğer yerlerde adacık nakli yerine. <ol class="lalpha"><li> Bu protokolde, Liberase pankreas içinde hücre-hücre rehber zayıflatmak için kullanılır. Liberase esas olarak pankreas adacık bırakmadan yararlı kolajenazlar yüksek oranda saflaştırılmış bir karışımıdır. Ancak, az saflaştırılmış kolajenazlar benzer bir sonuç gerçekleştirerek yeteneğine sahiptirler. Bu nedenle, sürece sindirim durumu yüksek adacık kalitesi elde etmek için optimize edilmiştir, verim ve saflık, pankreas sindirerek için farklı piyasada bulunan enzim preparatları kullanmak mümkün. </li><li> Pankreasın duktal perfüzyon olmadan enzim sindirimi de mümkündür. Koledok ile Liberase Teslimat pankreas enzim yüzey alanı maksimum maruz kalma sağlar. Bu sonuçlar, pankreas ve sağlam adacıklar daha serbest, daha eşit sindirim. Ancak, pankreas enzim yüzey alanını artırmak için diğer adımları da kullanılabilir. Örneğin, Liberase kuluçka veya doğrudan pankreas kapsülü ile Liberase enjekte önce kıyma pankreas adacık izole etmek için kullanılabilir. Ancak, Liberase teslim başka hiçbir yöntem koledok ile perfüzyon kadar etkili. Bu nedenle, kıyma ya da direkt enjeksiyon koledok hasar ve perfusable değilse son çare olarak ayrılmış olmalıdır. </li><li> Adacıklar ekzokrin hücreleri ayırmak için alternatif bir yöntem içerir.Histopaque1077 10 yerine FSD degrade kullanın. Bu protokol ekzokrin hücrelerden adacık verimli bir ayırma parçası iki hücre tipleri arasında bir yoğunluk farkı nedeniyle. Histopaque1077 1,0771 g / ml yoğunluğu 25 ° C Bu sıcaklıkta, Histopaque adacıklar ama ekzokrin hücreler daha az yoğun daha yoğundur. Bu nedenle, adacıklar, santrifüj Histopaque1077 pelet ekzokrin hücreler kuvveti altında yüzey kaldırırken. Prensip olarak, bu adımda ekzokrin hücreler adacıklar ayırabilirsiniz bir yoğunluk ile herhangi bir diğer madde kullanılan ve FSD degrade böyle bir maddedir. </li><li> Bu protokolde kullanılan böbrek kapsülü adacık nakli için konumu açısından, birkaç olası sitelerin biridir. Böbrek subcapsule farelerde nakli en sık bildirilen site olmakla birlikte, diğer nakli siteleri etkili olduğu bulundu ve hepatik portal ven, subretinal alan, testis, epididim yağ yastığı, dalak ve pankreas 11-14 bile olmuştur. Bu konumların her biri kendi avantajları ve zorlukları vardır. Bu nedenle, adacık nakli için bir site seçimi ele sorular ve deneyler belirli koşullar tarafından tespit edilmelidir. </li></ol> Adacık nakli sınırlamaları aşmak stratejileri önemli ölçüde terapötik potansiyelini artıracaktır inanıyordu. Bu nedenle, bu protokol bir fare modeli ayrıntılı olarak kullanımı gibi stratejiler belirlenmesi için cazip bir yaklaşım sunmaktadır.

Development of Obliterative Bronchiolitis in a Murine Model of Orthotopic Lung Transplantation

Orthotopic lung transplantation in rats was first reported by Asimacopoulos and colleagues in 1971 1. Currently, this method is well accepted and standardized not only for the study of allo-rejection but also between syngeneic strains for examining mechanisms of ischemia-reperfusion injury after lung transplantation. Although the application of the rat and other large animal model 2 contributed significantly to the elucidation of these studies, the scope of those investigations is limited by the scarcity of knockout and transgenic rats. Due to no effective therapies for obliterative bronchiolitis, the leading cause of death in lung transplant patients, there has been an intensive search for pre-clinical models that replicate obliterative bronchiolitis. The tracheal allograft model is the most widely used and may reproduce some of the histopathologic features of obliterative bronchiolitis 3. However, the lack of an intact vasculature with no connection to the recipient's conducting airways, and incomplete pathologic features of obliterative bronchiolitis limit the utility of this model 4. Unlike transplantation of other solid organs, vascularized mouse lung transplants have only recently been reported by Okazaki and colleagues for the first time in 2007 5. Applying the basic principles of the rat lung transplant, our lab initiated the obliterative bronchiolitis model using minor histoincompatible antigen murine orthotopic single-left lung transplants which allows the further study of obliterative bronchiolitis immunopathogenesis6.

Obliterative bronchiolitis is the key impediment to the long-term survival of lung transplant recipients and the lack of a robust preclinical model precludes examining obliterative bronchiolitis immunopathogenesis. Unlike other solid organ transplants, vascularized mouse lung transplantation has only recently been developed. Here we show our independently developed obliterative bronchiolitis model after murine orthotopic single-lung transplantation.

Murine Cervical Heart Transplantation Model Using a Modified Cuff Technique

Mouse models are of special interest in research since a wide variety of monoclonal antibodies and commercially defined inbred and knockout strains are available to perform mechanistic in vivo studies. While heart transplantation models using a suture technique were first successfully developed in rats, the translation into an equally widespread used murine equivalent was never achieved due the technical complexity of the microsurgical procedure. In contrast, non-suture cuff techniques, also developed initially in rats, were successfully adapted for use in mice1-3. This technique for revascularization involves two major steps I) everting the recipient vessel over a polyethylene cuff; II) pulling the donor vessel over the formerly everted recipient vessel and holding it in place with a circumferential tie. This ensures a continuity of the endothelial layer, short operating time and very high patency rates4.
Using this technique for vascular anastomosis we performed more than 1,000 cervical heart transplants with an overall success rate of 95%. For arterial inflow the common carotid artery and the proximal aortic arch were anastomosed resulting in a retrograde perfusion of the transplanted heart. For venous drainage the pulmonary artery of the graft was anastomosed with the external jugular vein of the recipient5.
Herein, we provide additional details of this technique to supplement the video.

The murine cervical heart transplantation model is well suited for immunological as well as ischemia reperfusion injury studies. We modified the procedure using a non-suture cuff technique and performed more than 1,000 successful transplants with this approach.
Herein, we provide additional details of this technique to supplement the video.

Murine Heterotopic Heart Transplant Technique

It is now over forty years since this technique was first reported by Corry, Wynn and Russell. Although it took some years for other labs to become proficient in and utilize this technique, it is now widely used by many laboratories around the world. A significant refinement to the original technique was developed and reported in 2001 by Niimi. Described here are the techniques that have evolved over more than a decade in the hands of three surgeons (Plenter, Grazia, Pietra) in our center. These techniques are now being passed on to a younger generation of surgeons and researchers.
Based largely on the Niimi experience, the procedures used have evolved in the fine details - details which we will endeavor to relate here in such a way that others may be able to use this very useful model. Like Niimi, we have found that a video aid to learning is a priceless resource for the beginner.

The manuscript describes the steps required to perform the heterotopic heart transplant in the mouse.

Murine Corneal Transplantation: A Model to Study the Most Common Form of Solid Organ Transplantation

Corneal transplantation is the most common form of organ transplantation in the United States with between 45,000 and 55,000 procedures performed each year. While several animal models exist for this procedure and mice are the species that is most commonly used. The reasons for using mice are the relative cost of using this species, the existence of many genetically defined strains that allow for the study of immune responses, and the existence of an extensive array of reagents that can be used to further define responses in this species. This model has been used to define factors in the cornea that are responsible for the relative immune privilege status of this tissue that enables corneal allografts to survive acute rejection in the absence of immunosuppressive therapy. It has also been used to define those factors that are most important in rejection of such allografts. Consequently, much of what we know concerning mechanisms of both corneal allograft acceptance and rejection are due to studies using a murine model of corneal transplantation. In addition to describing a model for acute corneal allograft rejection, we also present for the first time a model of late-term corneal allograft rejection.

Mice have been used as a model for studying many forms of transplantation, including corneal transplantation. We describe in this report a murine model for both acute and late-term corneal transplantation.

Mouse Kidney Transplantation: Models of Allograft Rejection

Rejection of the transplanted kidney in humans is still a major cause of morbidity and mortality. The mouse model of renal transplantation closely replicates both the technical and pathological processes that occur in human renal transplantation. Although mouse models of allogeneic rejection in organs other than the kidney exist, and are more technically feasible, there is evidence that different organs elicit disparate rejection modes and dynamics, for instance the time course of rejection in cardiac and renal allograft differs significantly in certain strain combinations. This model is an attractive tool for many reasons despite its technical challenges. As inbred mouse strain haplotypes are well characterized it is possible to choose donor and recipient combinations to model acute allograft rejection by transplanting across MHC class I and II loci. Conversely by transplanting between strains with similar haplotypes a chronic process can be elicited were the allograft kidney develops interstitial fibrosis and tubular atrophy. We have modified the surgical technique to reduce operating time and improve ease of surgery, however a learning curve still needs to be overcome in order to faithfully replicate the model. This study will provide key points in the surgical procedure and aid the process of establishing this technique.

Here, we present a protocol to study the immunology of rejection. The surgical model presented reports a short operating time and a concise technique. Depending on the donor-recipient strain combination, the transplanted kidney may develop acute cellular rejection or chronic allograft damage, defined by interstitial fibrosis and tubular atrophy.

The first mouse kidney transplant technique was published in 19731 by the Russell laboratory. Although it took some years for other labs to become proficient in and utilize this technique, it is now widely used by many laboratories around the world. A significant refinement to the original technique using the donor aorta to form the arterial anastomosis instead of the renal artery was developed and reported in 1993 by Kalina and Mottram 2 with a further advancement coming from the same laboratory in 1999 3. While one can become proficient in this model, a search of the literature reveals that many labs still experience a high proportion of graft loss due to arterial thrombosis. We describe here a technique that was devised in our laboratory that vastly reduces the arterial thrombus reported by others 4,5. This is achieved by forming a heel-and-toe cuff of the donor infra-renal aorta that facilitates a larger anastomosis and straighter blood flow into the kidney.

The goal of this manuscript is to describe the steps required to perform a kidney transplant in a mouse, paying particular attention to the details of the arterial anastomosis.

Normothermic Ex Vivo Kidney Perfusion for the Preservation of Kidney Grafts prior to Transplantation

Kidney transplantation has become a well-established treatment option for patients with end-stage renal failure. The persisting organ shortage remains a serious problem. Therefore, the acceptance criteria for organ donors have been extended leading to the usage of marginal kidney grafts. These marginal organs tolerate cold storage poorly resulting in increased preservation injury and higher rates of delayed graft function. To overcome the limitations of cold storage, extensive research is focused on alternative normothermic preservation methods.
Ex vivo normothermic organ perfusion is an innovative preservation technique. The first experimental and clinical trials for ex vivo lung, liver, and kidney perfusions demonstrated favorable outcomes.
In addition to the reduction of cold ischemic injury, the method of normothermic kidney storage offers the opportunity for organ assessment and repair. This manuscript provides information about kidney retrieval, organ preservation techniques, and isolated ex vivo normothermic kidney perfusion (NEVKP) in a porcine model. Surgical techniques, set up for the perfusion solution and the circuit, potential assessment options, and representative results are demonstrated.

Normothermic Ex Vivo Kidney Perfusion for the Preservation of Kidney Grafts prior to Transplantation

The severe organ shortage has resulted in increased use of marginal kidney grafts for transplantation. This has triggered interest in alternative storage methods, since marginal grafts especially tolerate cold storage poorly. The technique of normothermic ex vivo kidney perfusion (NEVKP) represents a novel preservation method for kidney grafts prior to &#160;transplantation.

A Novel Clinical Grade Isolation Method for Human Kidney Perivascular Stromal Cells

Mesenchymal Stromal Cells (MSCs) are tissue homeostatic and immune modulatory cells that have shown beneficial effects in kidney diseases and transplantation. Perivascular Stromal Cells (PSCs) share characteristics with bone marrow MSCs (bmMSCs). However, they also possess, most likely due to local imprinting, tissue-specific properties and play a role in local tissue homeostasis. This tissue specificity may result in tissue specific repair, also within the human kidney. We previously showed that human kidney PSCs (kPSCs) have enhanced kidney epithelial wound healing whereas bmMSCs did not have this potential. Moreover, kPSCs can ameliorate kidney injury in vivo. Therefore, kPSCs constitute an interesting source for cell therapy, particularly for kidney diseases and renal transplantation. Here we show the detailed isolation and culture method for kPSCs from transplant-grade human kidneys based on whole-organ perfusion of digestive enzymes via the renal artery and enrichment for the perivascular marker NG2. In this way, large cell quantities can be obtained that are suitable for cellular therapy.

Here we present a novel clinical grade isolation and culture method for kidney Perivascular Stromal Cells (kPSCs) based on whole organ perfusion with digestive enzymes and NG2-cell enrichment. With this method, it is possible to acquire sufficient cell numbers for cellular therapy.

Orthotopic Rat Kidney Transplantation: A Novel and Simplified Surgical Approach

Kidney transplantation offers increased survival rates and improved quality of life for patients with end-stage renal disease, as compared to any type of renal replacement therapy. Over the past few decades, the rat kidney transplantation model has been used to study the immunological phenomena of rejection and tolerance. This model has become an indispensable tool to test new immunomodulatory pharmaceuticals and regimens prior to proceeding with expensive preclinical large animal studies.
This protocol provides a detailed overview of how to reliably perform orthotopic kidney transplantation in rats. This protocol includes three distinctive steps that increase the probability of success: perfusion of the donor kidney by flushing through the portal vein and the use of a cuff system to anastomose the renal veins and ureters, thereby decreasing cold and warm ischemia times. Using this technique, we have achieved survival rates beyond 6 months with normal serum creatinine in animals with syngeneic or tolerant kidney transplants. Depending on the aim of the study, this model can be modified by pre- or posttransplant treatments to study the acute, chronic, cellular, or antibody-mediated rejection. It is a reproducible, reliable, and cost-effective animal model to study different aspects of kidney transplantation.

The purpose of this manuscript and protocol is to explain and demonstrate in detail the surgical procedure of orthotopic kidney transplantation in rats. This method is simplified to achieve the correct perfusion of the donor kidney and shorten the reperfusion time by using the venous and ureteral cuff anastomosis technique.

Optical Clearing and Imaging of Immunolabeled Kidney Tissue

Optical clearing techniques render tissue transparent by equilibrating the refractive index throughout a sample for subsequent three-dimensional (3-D) imaging. They have received great attention in all research areas for the potential to analyze microscopic multicellular structures that extend over macroscopic distances. Given that kidney tubules, vasculature, nerves, and glomeruli extend in many directions, which have been only partially captured by traditional two-dimensional techniques so far, tissue clearing also opened up many new areas of kidney research. The list of optical clearing methods is rapidly growing, but it remains difficult for beginners in this field to choose the best method for a given research question. Provided here is a simple method that combines antibody labeling of thick mouse kidney slices; optical clearing with cheap, non-toxic and ready-to-use chemical ethyl cinnamate; and confocal imaging. This protocol describes how to perfuse kidneys and use an antigen-retrieval step to increase antibody- binding without requiring specialized equipment. Its application is presented in imaging different multicellular structures within the kidney, and how to troubleshoot poor antibody penetration into tissue is addressed. We also discuss the potential difficulties of imaging endogenous fluorophores and acquiring very large samples and how to overcome them. This simple protocol provides an easy-to-setup and comprehensive tool to study tissue in three dimensions.

The combination of antibody labeling, optical clearing, and advanced light microscopy allows three-dimensional analysis of complete structures or organs. Described here is a simple method to combine immunolabeling of thick kidney slices, optical clearing with ethyl cinnamate, and confocal imaging that enables visualization and quantification of three-dimensional kidney structures.
