Opis:
Background: The renoprotective effects of the direct renin inhibitor, aliskiren, in renal transplant recipients have been supposed, but not finally proven. We performed an exploratory double-blind, losartan controlled, cross-over study to evaluate the influence of aliskiren, direct renin inhibitor, on albuminuria and other surrogate markers of kidney injury in patients after renal transplantation. The safety of this therapy was also evaluated. Method: 16 of 18 patients (12 M, 4 F), 48.3 ± 9.0 years, 57.7 ± 9.1 months after kidney transplantation, with hypertension and stable serum creatinine 1.4 ± 0.08 mg/dl without proteinuria, completed the protocol. Each patient underwent two 8-week treatment periods (one with 150 mg of aliskiren, and one with 50 mg of losartan) in random order, allowing an 8-week placebo washout between them. Results: There were no differences in albuminuria, transforming growth factor β-1 and 15-F2t-isoprostanes urine excretion between aliskiren and losartan. Creatinine serum level, eGFR, 24 h systolic and 24 h diastolic blood pressure were stable through the study. There were no differences in haemoglobin and potassium serum concentration between studied drugs. Conclusion: Aliskiren decreases albuminuria in renal transplant recipients with clinically minimal side effects. The effect does not differ from that of losartan.

Opis:
Organ injury during ischemia is one of the clinical problems of today's transplantation. It occurs during warm ischemia time (WIT) when the blood flow is cut off and during cold ischemia when a graft is chilled in situ until the circulation is restored to the recipient organism. Fast cooling of the organ slows down metabolism and activates intracellular enzymes, which minimizes the effects of warm ischemia. Unfortunately, hypothermia also results in inhibition of ATP synthesis, cell swelling and intracellular acidity. That is why research is continually being conducted to develop new fluids for rinsing and storing organs, as well as to optimize the composition of those that are already in use, which will allow for longer and more effective graft storage and restoration of their optimal functions after transplantation. This article provides current information on rinsing and storage fluids available on the global market. It also discusses tips for the fluid modifications with hormones and micronutrients.

Opis:
Abstract. An elevation in plasma cardiac troponins is an indicator of increased perioperative risk in orthopaedic and vascular surgery, however, data on liver transplantation (LTx) are scarce. The aim of the study was to evaluate the prevalence of cardiac troponin I (cTnI) elevation in the perioperative period of LTx, and its potential relationship with 1-year mortality. Material and methods. Analysis included 79 patients with liver cirrhosis. During LTx all patients underwent hemodynamic measurements. cTnI level was determined before the operation, 24, 48 and 72 hours afterwards. One-year mortality was assessed. Results. 12.7% patients died, all during in-hospital period. cTnI level on day 1. was identified as the most promising marker of increased death risk with optimal cut-off value of 0.215 ng/mL (the sensitivity of 60.0%, specificity of 87.0%, positive predictive value of 40.0%, negative predictive value of 93.8%). The most important predictor of cTnI increase was the duration of the LTx procedure followed by amount of packed red blood cells transfused, basic stroke volume index, and cardiac output index. In conclusion: value of cTnI level assessed 24 hours post-surgery was a reliable predictor of death following LTx with optimal cut-off value of 0.215 ng/mL. The surgery time was the most important predictor of cTnI elevation.

Opis:
Renal tubular acidosis (RTA) is a hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis characterized by a normal anion gap and normal (or near normal) glomerular filtration rate in the absence of diarrhoea. Inherited isolated forms of renal tubular acidosis are not common. However, they can also be a part of a more generalized tubule defect, like in Fanconi syndrome. In recent years more and more gene mutations have been found which are associated with RTA (mutations in the gene SLC4A4, encoding a Na+-HCO3- cotransporter (NBC-1); in the gene SLC4A1, encoding Cl-/HCO3- exchanger (AE1); in the gene ATP6B1, encoding B1 subunit of H+-ATPase; in the gene CA2 encoding carbonic anhydrase II; and others) and allow better understanding of underlying processes of bicarbonate and H+ transport. Isolated renal tubular acidosis can be frequently acquired due to use of certain drug groups, autoimmune disease or kidney transplantation. As the prevalence of acquired forms of RTA is common, new therapeutic options for the currently used supplementation of oral alkali, are awaited.

Opis:
The metabolism of oxygen in aerobic organisms leads to generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). These entities are able to oxidize almost all classes of macromolecules, including proteins, lipids and nucleic acids. The physiological level of ROS is usually regulated by antioxidant defense mechanisms. There are at least three groups of antioxidant enzymes: superoxide dismutases, catalases and glutathione peroxidases (GSH-Pxs) which neutralize ROS. The trace elements (copper, zinc and selenium) bound to the active sites of the above listed enzymes play an important role in the antioxidant defense system. In mammals, a major function of selenium (Se) and Se-dependent GSH-Pxs is to protect cells from oxidative stress. Selenium concentrations and GSH-Px activities are altered in blood components of chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. The Se level is frequently lower than in healthy subjects and the concentration very often decreases gradually with advancing stage of the disease. Studies on red cell GSH-Px activity in CKD patients reported its values significantly lower, significantly higher and lower or higher, but not significantly as compared with healthy subjects. On the other hand, all authors who studied plasma GSH-Px activity have shown significantly lower values than in healthy subjects. The degree of the reduction decreases gradually with the progression of the disease. High inverse correlations were seen between plasma GSH-Px activity and creatinine level. A gradual decrease in plasma GSH-Px activity in CKD patients is due to the fact that this enzyme is synthesized predominantly in the kidney and thus the impairment of this organ is the cause of the enzyme's lower activity. Se supplementation to CKD patients has a slightly positive effect in the incipient stage of the disease, but usually no effect was observed in end-stage CKD. Presently, kidney transplantation is the only treatment that may restore plasma Se level and GSH-Px activity in patients suffering from end-stage CKD. A few studies have shown that in kidney recipients, plasma Se concentration and GSH-Px activity are restored to normal values within a period of 2 weeks to 3 months following surgery and thus it can be acknowledged that Se supplementation to those patients has a positive effect on plasma GSH-Px activity.

Opis:
Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), a member of the family Herpesviridae, is widely spread in the human population and has the ability to establish lifelong latent infection. In immunocompetent individuals the virus reactivation is usually harmless and unnoticeable. In immunocompromised patients productive infection or type III latency may lead to EBV-associated post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD). The aim of our research was to investigate the utility of PCR-based methods in the diagnosis and monitoring of EBV infections in bone marrow transplant recipients. Thirty-eight peripheral blood leukocyte samples obtained from 16 patients were analysed, in which EBV DNA was confirmed by PCR. We used semi-quantitative PCR to estimate the viral load and reverse-transcription PCR (RT-PCR) to differentiate between latent and productive EBV infection. In 14 patients we confirmed productive viral infection. We observed a correlation between higher number of EBV genome copies and the presence of transcripts specific for type III latency as well as clinical symptoms.
