Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute exacerbations of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (AE-IPF) are acute, significant respiratory deteriorations in patients with IPF and can lead to increased morbidity and mortality. It remains unclear how AE-IPF impacts lung transplant (LTX) outcomes. METHODS All adult patients who were listed for LTX between July 2005 and October 2020 at the Loyola University Medical Center with a diagnosis of IPF were included. Pretransplant characteristics and posttransplant outcomes were gathered via retrospective chart review. The primary outcome was short- and long-term survival for patients transplanted during stable IPF versus those with AE-IPF. RESULTS One hundred fifty-nine patients were included in this study, 17.6% of whom were transplanted during AE-IPF. AE-IPF patients were more likely to have higher oxygen needs pretransplant, have higher lung allocation score, and were more likely to be intubated or be on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation as compared with stable IPF patients. Survival by AE status at transplant did not differ at 90 d or 1 y posttransplantation. There were also no significant differences in rates of severe primary graft dysfunction or acute rejection within 1 y. CONCLUSIONS Patients with AE-IPF were more likely to have higher oxygenation requirements and higher lung allocation score at the time of LTX than those with stable IPF. Despite this, there were no differences in survival at 90 d, 1 y, or 3 y, or differences in incidence of severe primary graft dysfunction or acute cellular rejection. Transplantation of patients with AE-IPF has clinical outcomes comparable with transplantation of patients with stable IPF. This contrasts with previous studies examining LTX in patients with AE-IPF.

Dery KJ, Yao S, Cheng B, Kupiec-Weglinski JW. New therapeutic concepts against ischemia-reperfusion injury in organ transplantation. Expert Rev Clin Immunol 2023; 19:1205-1224. [PMID: 37489289 PMCID: PMC10529400 DOI: 10.1080/1744666x.2023.2240516] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/26/2023] [Accepted: 07/20/2023] [Indexed: 07/26/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) involves a positive amplification feedback loop that stimulates innate immune-driven tissue damage associated with organ procurement from deceased donors and during transplantation surgery. As our appreciation of its basic immune mechanisms has improved in recent years, translating putative biomarkers into therapeutic interventions in clinical transplantation remains challenging. AREAS COVERED This review presents advances in translational/clinical studies targeting immune responses to reactive oxygen species in IRI-stressed solid organ transplants, especially livers. Here we focus on novel concepts to rejuvenate suboptimal donor organs and improve transplant function using pharmacologic and machine perfusion (MP) strategies. Cellular damage induced by cold ischemia/warm reperfusion and the latest mechanistic insights into the microenvironment's role that leads to reperfusion-induced sterile inflammation is critically discussed. EXPERT OPINION Efforts to improve clinical outcomes and increase the donor organ pool will depend on improving donor management and our better appreciation of the complex mechanisms encompassing organ IRI that govern the innate-adaptive immune interface triggered in the peritransplant period and subsequent allo-Ag challenge. Computational techniques and deep machine learning incorporating the vast cellular and molecular mechanisms will predict which peri-transplant signals and immune interactions are essential for improving access to the long-term function of life-saving transplants.

[PMID: 36075463 DOI: 10.1016/j.amjms.2022.08.017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/25/2021] [Revised: 06/18/2022] [Accepted: 08/29/2022] [Indexed: 01/04/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI), which involves severe inflammation and edema, is an inevitable feature of the lung transplantation process and leads to primary graft dysfunction (PGD). The activation of aquaporin 1 (AQP1) modulates fluid transport in the alveolar space. The current study investigated the role of AQP1 in ischemia-reperfusion (IR)-induced lung injury. METHODS A mouse model of lung IR was established by clamping the left lung hilar for 1 h and released for reperfusion for 24 h. The AQP1 inhibitor acetazolamide (AZA) was administered 3 days before lung ischemia with a dose of 100 mg/kg per day via gavage. Lung injury was evaluated using the ratio of wet-to-dry weight, peripheral bronchial epithelial thickness, degree of angioedema, acute lung injury score, neutrophil infiltration, and cytokine concentrations in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid. RESULTS Compared with sham treatment, ischemia with no reperfusion (IR 0h) and ischemia with reperfusion for 24 h (IR 24 h) significantly upregulated AQP1 expression, increased the wet/dry weight ratio, angioedema, neutrophil infiltration and cytokine production (interleukin -6 and tumor necrosis factor -α) and thickened the peripheral bronchial epithelium. AZA exacerbated inflammation and pulmonary edema. CONCLUSION AQP1 may exert a protective effect against IR-induced lung injury, which could be attributed to alleviating pulmonary edema and inflammation. AQP1 upregulation might be a potential application to alleviate lung IRI and decrease the incidence of PGD.

Contemporary trends in PGD incidence, outcomes, and therapies. J Heart Lung Transplant 2022; 41:1839-1849. [PMID: 36216694 PMCID: PMC9990084 DOI: 10.1016/j.healun.2022.08.013] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/04/2022] [Revised: 08/17/2022] [Accepted: 08/18/2022] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND We sought to describe trends in extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) use, and define the impact on PGD incidence and early mortality in lung transplantation. METHODS Patients were enrolled from August 2011 to June 2018 at 10 transplant centers in the multi-center Lung Transplant Outcomes Group prospective cohort study. PGD was defined as Grade 3 at 48 or 72 hours, based on the 2016 PGD ISHLT guidelines. Logistic regression and survival models were used to contrast between group effects for event (i.e., PGD and Death) and time-to-event (i.e., death, extubation, discharge) outcomes respectively. Both modeling frameworks accommodate the inclusion of potential confounders. RESULTS A total of 1,528 subjects were enrolled with a 25.7% incidence of PGD. Annual PGD incidence (14.3%-38.2%, p = .0002), median LAS (38.0-47.7 p = .009) and the use of ECMO salvage for PGD (5.7%-20.9%, p = .007) increased over the course of the study. PGD was associated with increased 1 year mortality (OR 1.7 [95% C.I. 1.2, 2.3], p = .0001). Bridging strategies were not associated with increased mortality compared to non-bridged patients (p = .66); however, salvage ECMO for PGD was significantly associated with increased mortality (OR 1.9 [1.3, 2.7], p = .0007). Restricted mean survival time comparison at 1-year demonstrated 84.1 days lost in venoarterial salvaged recipients with PGD when compared to those without PGD (ratio 1.3 [1.1, 1.5]) and 27.2 days for venovenous with PGD (ratio 1.1 [1.0, 1.4]). CONCLUSIONS PGD incidence continues to rise in modern transplant practice paralleled by significant increases in recipient severity of illness. Bridging strategies have increased but did not affect PGD incidence or mortality. PGD remains highly associated with mortality and is increasingly treated with salvage ECMO.
