Project description:Colorectal liver metastases (CLM) are currently considered an absolute contraindication for liver transplantation (Lt) although Lt for other primary and secondary liver malignancies show excellent outcome in selected patients. Before 1995, several Lts for CLM were performed, but the outcome was poor (18% 5-year survival) and Lt for CLM was stopped. Since then, several advances have been achieved and survival following Lt has improved by almost 30%. Thus, a 5-year survival of about 50% following Lt for CLM could be anticipated.
The investigators have previously included 21 patients in a pilot study. All patients had advanced CLM at the time of Lt. Long term overall survival (OS) exceeds by far previously reported outcome for this patient group and is comparable or better than survival following repeat Lt for non-malignant diagnoses. Development of robust selection criteria may further improve the results.
The investigators will conduct a randomized controlled trial to explore whether liver transplantation in selected patients with liver metastases from CRC can obtain significant life extension and better health related quality of life compared to patients receiving surgical resection.
The investigators will also explore if patient selection according to nomo-grams for outcome of colorectal cancer can define a subgroup of patients with a 5 year survival of at least 50% or even cure from the disease.

Project description:INTRODUCTION Ischemia and reperfusion injury (IRI)-elicited tissue injury contributes to morbidity and mortality in a wide range of pathologies, including myocardial infarction, ischemic stroke, acute kidney injury, trauma, circulatory arrest 1. Ischemia-reperfusion injury is also a major challenge during organ transplantation and cardiothoracic, vascular and general surgery 1. IRI, one of the biggest challenges for organ transplantation, continues to be a vital source of morbidity among recipients, especially in liver transplantation 2. With the enlarging shortage of available donor livers, the increased use of extended criteria donor grafts further increases IRI, adversely affecting both short-term and long-term outcomes of graft and patient survival 3. Numerous studies have investigated the benefits of pharmacological, heat shock, and ischemic preconditioning interventions aimed at decreasing liver IRI 4. However, the benefit was limited. Our center has been making great effort in conquering IRI and have developed a novel surgical technique called ischemia-free liver transplantation 5. It is an ultimate method to overcome IRI in liver transplantation, but there is still a long way to popularize it. As a result, it is still of great significance to study IRI and identify the core genes in the process and the underlying mechanism. Comprehensive bioinformatics analysis has been increasingly important as a method to study various pathological and physiological condition 6. By enrolling multiple omics or combining different types of omics, comprehensive bioinformatics analysis was able to recognize key factors that could have potentially pathogenic impact such as gene expression, protein function, and downstream pathways. With the rapid development of high-throughput sequencing technologies, several transcriptomic datasets on IRI of liver transplantation have become available in the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. Herein, we recruited 3 GEO datasets to conduct comprehensive analysis with the GEO dataset from our center. Moreover, we performed the first proteome of liver tissues to study liver IRI. Then the transcriptome and proteome were used for combined analysis to reveal key factors in liver IRI.

Project description:Islet transplantation is an attractive treatment for patients with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, and currently the liver is the favored transplantation site. However, an alternative site is desirable because of the low efficiency of hepatic transplantation, requiring 2-3 donors for a single recipient, and because the transplanted islets cannot be accessed or retrieved. Here we describe a novel site for islet transplantation, the inguinal subcutaneous white adipose tissue. In this site, transplanted islets are engrafted as clusters and function to reverse diabetes in mice. Importantly, transplanted islets can be visualized by CT and are easily retrievable, and allograft rejection is preventable by blockade of co-stimulatory signals. Of much interest, the efficiency of islet transplantation is superior to the liver, with increased mass of transplanted β cells. Furthermore, transplanted human islets function to reverse diabetes in immunodeficient mice. Thus, this adipose tissue site may be ideal for clinical islet transplantation.

Project description:Liver transplantation is the only treatment option for patients with end-stage liver disease. However, a persistent disparity remains between supply and demand for donor organs suitable for transplantation, resulting in a waiting list mortality of up to 20%. This has resulted in an increasing use of high-risk grafts from suboptimal, extended criteria donors, including livers from donation after circulatory death (DCD) donors, and donors with significant comorbidities such as advanced age, diabetes mellitus and livers with high fat content. While cold storage remains sufficient for livers considered optimal for transplantation, ECD grafts are more vulnerable to cold ischemic damage, resulting in many of these grafts being rejected. As an alternative to cold storage, ex-situ normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) has become an increasingly popular method for preservation, transportation and assessment of ECD livers prior to transplantation. This allows for functional assessment of the graft and provides the opportunity to assess key processes that can be used to determine organ viability. The use of both hepatocellular and biliary viability criteria in selection of suboptimal livers from ECD donors has led to the successful transplantation of these grafts with a low incidence of post-transplant cholangiopathies. However, the mechanisms of biliary injury, and recovery thereof, following static cold storage remains poorly understood. Insight into these mechanisms may further improve preservation and selection of ECD livers. Therefore, we performed an in-depth proteomics analysis of bile samples collected from human ECD livers during NMP to identify potential mechanisms linked to biliary injury, function and regeneration over the course of the perfusion, and to assess whether biliary protein profiles can distinguish between transplantable and non-transplantable grafts.

Project description:Autologous skin flap transplantation is a common method to repair complex soft tissue defects caused by cancer, trauma, and congenital malformations, among other conditions; however, limited blood supply range and post-transplantation ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) can cause distal necrosis of the flap and loss of long-term function, severely limiting the indications for this type of surgery. Here, development of a bio-multifunctional hydrogel for programmatic co-delivery medicine, DCDM, that meets the blood supply requirements of skin flap transplantation and can deliver two types of gas molecules, CO and NO, in a timely manner and with a concentration gradient during surgery, is described. DCDM maintains the immediate opening of blood flow channels in transplanted tissue and effective blood perfusion throughout the perioperative period, activating perfusion of the hemodynamic donor site. These results demonstrate that DCDM promotes distal vascularization and long-term functional reconstruction of transplanted tissues by inhibiting inflammatory damage and accelerating blood vessel formation. The findings presented here are applicable to the extended fields of large soft tissue defect repair and transplant of various organs.

Project description:More than 50% of all patients with colorectal cancer (CRC) develop liver metastasis (CLM) that are characterized by poor prognosis and lack of reliable prognostic markers. Vd1 T cells are gd T innate-like lymphocytes endowed with a broad array of antitumor functions at peripheral tissues, but little is known about their impact in the pathophysiology of CLM. We assessed the phenotype and functions by flow cytometry, clonotype by gdTCR-sequencing, transcriptional profiles by single cell RNA-sequencing and clinical impact of human Vd1 T cells isolated from peripheral blood (PB), tumor-free liver parenchyma surrounding CLM (TFLP) and metastatic tumor (MT) from a large cohort of CLM patients. We show here that CLM tissue is highly enriched of CD69+ Vd1 T effector (TEF) cells in the TFLP area. These cells have a peculiar phenotype, high anti-tumour potential and correlate with a better clinical outcome in terms of lower numbers of liver metastatic lesions and longer overall survival (OS). Moreover, the specific terminally differentiated (TEMRA) CD69+ Vd1 cells can egress CLM tissue to re-circulate in the bloodstream, where they retains high effector functions and show phenotypic/transcriptional and gdTCR profiles that resemble their liver origin. Importantly, high frequencies of CD69+TEMRA Vd1 cells in PB predict a longer OS of CLM patients that is not affected by the neo-adjuvant chemotherapy/immunotherapy regimens administered to CLM patients. The presence at high frequencies of liver memory CD69+TEMRA Vd1 cells in CLM homing to PB represents a new important target to better predict CLM clinical outcomes and to develop novel protocols of adoptive cell transfer therapies.

Project description:The study aims to evaluate the efficacy of liver transplantation in the context of non-resectable colorectal liver metastasis. The primary endpoint is the overall survival in this group of patients while the secondary endpoint is the disease-free survival.
Patients included in this protocol will be evaluated either for whole or partial liver transplantation from deceased or living donors.
Type of different transplantations proposed are as follows:
1. Whole liver graft or partial liver (split) from a deceased donor
2. Partial liver graft retrieved from a deceased donor and orthotopically implanted after having performed a left hepatectomy in the recipient.
3. Partial liver graft retrieved from a deceased donor and heterotopically implanted if total hepatectomy can not be performed.
4. Partial liver graft retrieved from a living donor and orthotopically implanted after having performed total hepatectomy.
5. Partial liver graft retrieved from a living donor and orthotopically implanted after having after having performed a left hepatectomy in the recipient.
6. Partial liver graft retrieved from a living donor and heterotopically implanted if total hepatectomy can not be performed.
In cases 2-3-5-6 total hepatectomy of native liver can be secondarily performed after having achieved a proper graft hypertrophy in order to avoid a small for size syndrome
