Abstract
Purpose of Review Multi-omics approach has advanced our knowledge on transplantation-associated clinical outcomes, such as acute rejection and infection, and emerging omics data are becoming available in kidney transplant and COVID-19. Herein, we discuss updated findings of multi-omics data on kidney transplant outcomes, as well as COVID-19 and kidney transplant. Recent Findings Transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics revealed various inflammation pathways associated with kidney transplantation-related outcomes and COVID-19. Although multi-omics data on kidney transplant and COVID-19 is limited, activation of innate immune pathways and suppression of adaptive immune pathways were observed in the active phase of COVID-19 in kidney transplant recipients. Summary Multi-omics analysis has led us to a deeper exploration and a more comprehensive understanding of key biological pathways in complex clinical settings, such as kidney transplantation and COVID-19. Future multi-omics analysis leveraging multi-center biobank collaborative will further advance our knowledge on the precise immunological responses to allograft and emerging pathogens.

Abstract
CCL13/MCP-4 belongs to the CC chemokine family, which induces chemotaxis in many immune cells. Despite extensive research into its function in numerous disorders, a thorough analysis of CCL13 is not yet accessible. The role of CCL13 in human disorders and existing CCL13-focused therapies are outlined in this study. The function of CCL13 in rheumatic diseases, skin conditions, and cancer is comparatively well-established, and some studies also suggest that it may be involved in ocular disorders, orthopedic conditions, nasal polyps, and obesity. We also give an overview of research that found very little evidence of CCL13 in HIV, nephritis, and multiple sclerosis. Even though CCL13-mediated inflammation is frequently linked to disease pathogenesis, it's fascinating to note that in some conditions, like primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) and suicide, it might even act as a preventative measure.

Abstract
Organ shortages and an expanding waitlist have led to increased utilization of marginal organs. All donor organs are subject to varying degrees of IRI during the transplant process. Extended criteria organs, including those from older donors and organs donated after circulatory death are especially vulnerable to ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI). Involvement of the complement cascade in mediating IRI has been studied extensively. Complement plays a vital role in the propagation of IRI and subsequent recruitment of the adaptive immune elements. Complement inhibition at various points of the pathway has been shown to mitigate IRI and minimize future immune-mediated injury in preclinical models. The recent introduction of ex vivo machine perfusion platforms provides an ideal window for therapeutic interventions. Here we review the role of complement in IRI by organ system and highlight potential therapeutic targets for intervention during ex vivo machine preservation of donor organs.

A Review of Current and Emerging Trends in Donor Graft-Quality Assessment Techniques. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11030487. [PMID: 35159939 PMCID: PMC8836899 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11030487] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/13/2021] [Revised: 01/12/2022] [Accepted: 01/14/2022] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
The number of patients placed on kidney transplant waiting lists is rapidly increasing, resulting in a growing gap between organ demand and the availability of kidneys for transplantation. This organ shortage has forced medical professionals to utilize marginal kidneys from expanded criteria donors (ECD) to broaden the donor pool and shorten wait times for patients with end-stage renal disease. However, recipients of ECD kidney grafts tend to have worse outcomes compared to those receiving organs from standard criteria donors (SCD), specifically increased risks of delayed graft function (DGF) and primary nonfunction incidence. Thus, representative methods for graft-quality assessment are strongly needed, especially for ECDs. Currently, graft-quality evaluation is limited to interpreting the donor’s recent laboratory tests, clinical risk scores, the visual evaluation of the organ, and, in some cases, a biopsy and perfusion parameters. The last few years have seen the emergence of many new technologies designed to examine organ function, including new imaging techniques, transcriptomics, genomics, proteomics, metabolomics, lipidomics, and new solutions in organ perfusion, which has enabled a deeper understanding of the complex mechanisms associated with ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI), inflammatory process, and graft rejection. This review summarizes and assesses the strengths and weaknesses of current conventional diagnostic methods and a wide range of new potential strategies (from the last five years) with respect to donor graft-quality assessment, the identification of IRI, perfusion control, and the prediction of DGF.

Renal Delivery of Pharmacologic Agents During Machine Perfusion to Prevent Ischaemia-Reperfusion Injury: From Murine Model to Clinical Trials. Front Immunol 2021; 12:673562.

Abstract
Donor organ shortage still remains a serious obstacle for the access of wait-list patients to kidney transplantation, the best treatment for End-Stage Kidney Disease (ESKD). To expand the number of transplants, the use of lower quality organs from older ECD or DCD donors has become an established routine but at the price of increased incidence of Primary Non-Function, Delay Graft Function and lower-long term graft survival. In the last years, several improvements have been made in the field of renal transplantation from surgical procedure to preservation strategies. To improve renal outcomes, research has focused on development of innovative and dynamic preservation techniques, in order to assess graft function and promote regeneration by pharmacological intervention before transplantation. This review provides an overview of the current knowledge of these new preservation strategies by machine perfusions and pharmacological interventions at different timing possibilities: in the organ donor, ex-vivo during perfusion machine reconditioning or after implementation in the recipient. We will report therapies as anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory agents, senolytics agents, complement inhibitors, HDL, siRNA and H2S supplementation. Renal delivery of pharmacologic agents during preservation state provides a window of opportunity to treat the organ in an isolated manner and a crucial route of administration. Even if few studies have been reported of transplantation after ex-vivo drugs administration, targeting the biological pathway associated to kidney failure (i.e. oxidative stress, complement system, fibrosis) might be a promising therapeutic strategy to improve the quality of various donor organs and expand organ availability.
