The control of pre-analytical-factors in human biospecimens collected for health research is currently required. Only two previous reports using post-mortem brain samples have tried to address the impact of cold-ischemia on tissue pH. Here we report pH variations according to time (third-order polynomial model) in mice for liver, kidney and lung samples. Tissue alkalosis in cold-ischemia time may be an underlying mechanism of gene expression changes. Therefore, tissue-pH regulation after organ r ...[more]

Project description:An inadequate supply of fresh tissue is a major limitation of three-dimensional patient-derived gastric organoid research. We propose that tissue procurement for organoid culture could be increased by developing a cold storage shipment protocol for fresh surgical tissues. Sixty stomach specimens from C57BL/6J mice were resected, of which forty-five were stored in Hank's Balanced Salt (HBSS), University of Wisconsin (UW), or Histidine-Tryptophan-Ketoglutarate (HTK) solutions for subsequent organoid culture. Stomachs were dissociated and processed into gastric organoids as fresh tissue or after transport at 4 °C for 24 or 48 h. All gastric organoid cultures were established and maintained for 10 passages. Cold storage for 24 or 48 h did not significantly affect organoid viability. Although cold storage was associated with decreased organoid growth rate, there were no differences in viability, cytotoxic dose response, or LGR5 and TROY stem cell gene expression compared to organoids prepared from fresh tissue. As a proof of concept, six human gastric cancer organoids were established after 24 or 48 h of storage. Patient-derived gastric organoids from mouse and human gastric tissue can be established after 48 h of cold ischemia. Our method, which only requires ice packs, standard shipping containers, and HBSS is feasible and reliable. This method does not affect the reliability of downstream dose-response assays and maintains organoid viability for at least 10 passages. The shipment of fresh tissue for organoid procurement could serve to enhance multicenter collaboration and achieve more elaborate or controlled organoid experimentation.

Project description:Background and objectivesIncreased donor age is one of the most important risk factors for delayed graft function (DGF), and previous studies suggest that the harmful effect of cold ischemia time is increased in kidneys from older donors. Our aim was to study the association of increased donor age and cold ischemia time with the risk of delayed graft function in a large cohort kidney transplants from the current era.Design, setting, participants, & measurementsThe Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients was used for this observational, retrospective registry analysis to identify all deceased donor kidney transplantations in the United States between 2010 and September 2018, who were on dialysis pretransplantation (n=90,810). The association of donor age and cold ischemia time with the risk of DGF was analyzed in multivariable models adjusted for recipient characteristics (age, race, sex, diabetes, calculated panel-reactive antibodies, pretransplant dialysis duration) and donor characteristics (cause of death, sex, race, body mass index, creatinine, donation after circulatory death status, history of hypertension, and HLA mismatch).ResultsCold ischemia time and donor age were independently associated with the risk of DGF, but the risk of DGF was not statistically significantly lower in donor age categories between 50 and 64 years, compared with donors ≥65 years. The harmful association of cold ischemia time was not higher in kidneys from older donors in any age category, not even among donation after circulatory death donors. When donor risk was assessed with kidney donor profile index, although a statistically significant interaction with cold ischemia time was found, no practically meaningful increase in cold-ischemia susceptibility of kidneys with a high kidney donor profile index was found.ConclusionsWe were unable to demonstrate an association between donor age and DGF. The association of longer cold ischemia time with the risk of DGF was not magnified in older or more marginal donors.

Project description:BackgroundBased on their potential to analyze aberrant cellular signaling in relation to biological function, kinase activity profiling in tumor biopsies by peptide microarrays and mass spectrometry-based phosphoproteomics may guide selection of protein kinase inhibitors in patients with cancer. Variable tissue handling procedures in clinical practice may influence protein phosphorylation status and kinase activity and therewith may hamper biomarker discovery. Here, the effect of cold ischemia time (CIT) on the stability of kinase activity and protein phosphorylation status in fresh-frozen clinical tissue samples was studied using peptide microarrays and mass spectrometry-based phosphoproteomics.MethodsBiopsies of colorectal cancer resection specimens from five patients were collected and snap frozen immediately after surgery and at 6 additional time points between 0 and 180 min of CIT. Kinase activity profiling was performed for all samples using a peptide microarray. MS-based global phosphoproteomics was performed in tumors from 3 patients at 4 time points. Statistical and cluster analyses were performed to analyze changes in kinase activity and phosphoproteome resulting from CIT.ResultsUnsupervised cluster analysis of kinase activity and phosphoproteome data revealed that samples from the same patients cluster together. Continuous ANOVA analysis of all 7 time points for 5 patient samples resulted in 4 peptides out of 210 (2%) with significantly (p?<?0.01 and fold change?>?2) altered signal intensity in time. In 4 out of 5 patients tumor kinase activity was stable with CIT. MS-based phosphoproteomics resulted in the detection of 10,488 different phosphopeptides with on average 6044 phosphopeptides per tumor sample. 2715 phosphopeptides were detected in all samples at time point 0, of which 90 (3.3%) phosphopeptides showed significant changes in intensity with CIT (p?<?0.01). Only two phosphopeptides were significantly changed in all time points, including one peptide (PKP3) with a fold change?>?2.ConclusionsThe vast majority of the phosphoproteome as well as the activity of protein kinases in colorectal cancer resection tissue is stable up to 180 min of CIT and reflects tumor characteristics. However, specific changes in kinase activity with increasing CIT were observed. Therefore, stringent tissue collection procedures are advised to minimize changes in kinase activity during CIT.

Project description:Post-mortem tissues samples are a key resource for investigating patterns of gene expression. However, the processes triggered by death and the post-mortem interval (PMI) can significantly alter physiologically normal RNA levels. We investigate the impact of PMI on gene expression using data from multiple tissues of post-mortem donors obtained from the GTEx project. We find that many genes change expression over relatively short PMIs in a tissue-specific manner, but this potentially confounding effect in a biological analysis can be minimized by taking into account appropriate covariates. By comparing ante- and post-mortem blood samples, we identify the cascade of transcriptional events triggered by death of the organism. These events do not appear to simply reflect stochastic variation resulting from mRNA degradation, but active and ongoing regulation of transcription. Finally, we develop a model to predict the time since death from the analysis of the transcriptome of a few readily accessible tissues.

Project description:Phosphorylated proteins provide insight into tumor etiology and are used as diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic markers of complex diseases. However, pre-analytic variations, such as freezing delay after biopsy acquisition, often occur in real hospital settings and potentially lead to inaccurate results. The objective of this work is to develop statistical methodology to assess the stability of phosphorylated proteins under short-time cold ischemia. We consider a hierarchical model to determine if phosphorylation abundance of a protein at a particular phosphorylation site remains constant or not during cold ischemia. When phosphorylation levels vary across time, we estimate the direction of the changes in each protein based on the maximum overall posterior probability and on the pairwise posterior probabilities, respectively. We analyze a dataset of ovarian tumor tissues that suffered cold-ischemia shock before the proteomic profiling. Gajadhar et al. (2015) applied independent clusterings for each patient because of the high heterogeneity across patients, while our proposed model shares information allowing conclusions for the entire sample population. Using the proposed model, 15 out of 32 proteins show significant changes during 1-hour cold ischemia. Through simulation studies, we conclude that our proposed methodology has a higher accuracy for detecting changes compared to an order restricted inference method. Our approach provides inference on the stability of these phosphorylated proteins, which is valuable when using these proteins as biomarkers for a disease.

Project description:Time to freezing tumor tissue for RNA expression analysis will always vary to some extent. To evaluate the effect of ischemia time, tumor tissue from ten breast cancer patients was collected and aliquots of tissue were snap frozen at different time points after surgery (0, 0.5, 1, 3 and 6 h). Using miRNA and mRNA expression microarrays and statistical analysis, 56 miRNAs and 1788 mRNAs were found to be significantly altered with ischemia time up to six hours. Several of the 56 miRNAs have been reported to play a role in cancer, such as hsa-miR-663 and hsa-miR-125a-3p. Known stress response genes such as GADD45B, JUND and FOSB were among the mRNAs most significantly affected by time to freezing. A novel statistical method for identification of consistently correlated miRNA-mRNA pairs and miRNA-associated biological processes in time course data is presented. Application of this method revealed that several miRNAs, including hsa-miR-1228, hsa-miR-1225-5p and hsa-miR-574-5p, were associated through their correlation to mRNAs to biological processes such as "response to stimulus" and "stress response". These miRNAs also showed enrichment of predicted targets among either their positively or negatively correlated mRNAs. The induced miRNAs may play both direct and indirect roles in biological responses. Caution should be taken when the miRNAs and mRNAs reported to be affected by ischemia time are included in a prognostic or predictive signature.

Project description:BackgroundCushing's syndrome due to ectopic ACTH secretion has been associated with many cancers; most commonly small cell carcinoma of the lung and bronchial carcinoid tumors. Usually, patients who confer this diagnosis have poor prognosis.Case presentationA 66-year-old female presented with worsening shortness of breath and weakness over three days. Initial laboratory derangements included severe hypokalemia and metabolic alkalosis. Treatment included high amounts of potassium chloride and acetazolamide. Imaging studies revealed anterior medial right upper lobe lung mass as well as suspicion for many liver metastases. Liver biopsy was sought and was positive for small cell carcinoma.ConclusionWe describe a case of severe metabolic alkalosis and hypokalemia in a patient with Cushing's syndrome due to ectopic ACTH secretion from small cell lung cancer. To our knowledge, this is the first case identified which exhibited such significant metabolic derangements in the form of serum and arterial blood bicarbonate. As prognosis is quite poor, we recommend swift diagnosis and management.

Project description:Extracellular Cold-inducible RNA-binding protein (eCIRP), a damage-associated molecular pattern, is released from cells upon hypoxia and cold-stress. The overall absence of extra- and intracellular CIRP is associated with increased angiogenesis, most likely induced through influencing leukocyte accumulation. The aim of the present study was to specifically characterize the role of eCIRP in ischemia-induced angiogenesis together with the associated leukocyte recruitment. For analyzing eCIRPs impact, we induced muscle ischemia via femoral artery ligation (FAL) in mice in the presence or absence of an anti-CIRP antibody and isolated the gastrocnemius muscle for immunohistological analyses. Upon eCIRP-depletion, mice showed increased capillary/muscle fiber ratio and numbers of proliferating endothelial cells (CD31+/CD45-/BrdU+). This was accompanied by a reduction of total leukocyte count (CD45+), neutrophils (MPO+), neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) (MPO+CitH3+), apoptotic area (ascertained via TUNEL assay), and pro-inflammatory M1-like polarized macrophages (CD68+/MRC1-) in ischemic muscle tissue. Conversely, the number of regenerative M2-like polarized macrophages (CD68+/MRC1+) was elevated. Altogether, we observed that eCIRP depletion similarly affected angiogenesis and leukocyte recruitment as described for the overall absence of CIRP. Thus, we propose that eCIRP is mainly responsible for modulating angiogenesis via promoting pro-angiogenic microenvironmental conditions in muscle ischemia.

Project description:BACKGROUND The persisting organ shortage in the field of transplantation recommends the use of marginal kidneys which poorly tolerate ischemic damage. Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) depletion during cold ischemia time (CIT) is considered crucial for graft function. We tested different strategies of kidney perfusion before transplantation in the attempt to improve the technique. MATERIAL AND METHODS Twenty human discarded kidneys from donors after brain death and with at least 20 hours of CIT were randomized to the following experimental groups (treatment time three-hours at 4°C): a) static cold storage (CS); b) static cold hyperbaric oxygenation (Hyp); c) hypothermic perfusion (PE); d) hypothermic perfusion in hyperbaric oxygenation (PE-Hyp); and e) hypothermic oxygenated perfusion (PE-O2). RESULTS Histological results showed that perfusion with or without oxygen did not produce any endothelial damage. A depletion of ATP content following the preservation procedure was observed in CS, PE, and Hyp, while PE-Hyp and PE-O2 were associated with a net increase of ATP content with respect to baseline level. In addition, PE-Hyp was associated with a significant downregulation of endothelial isoform of nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) gene expression and of hypoxia inducible factor-1? (HIF-1?). CONCLUSIONS Hyperbaric or normobaric oxygenation with perfusion improves organ metabolic preservation compared to other methods. This approach may prevent the onset of delayed graft function, but clinical trials are needed to confirm this.
