Expression data from a model of renal deceased by cardiac death (DCD) donation in rat
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: In DCD organ donation one of the significant problems for the organ is the inflammatory response due to ischaemiua reperfusion injury caused by warm ischaemia prior to retrieval followed by warm reoxygenation upon transplantation. We developed a model where a DCD kidney was retrieved and stoired overnight then the organ was surgically attached to the femoral artery of a recipient rat and blood flow restored for up to six hours to simulate early ischaemia reperfusion injury (IRI). The recipient rats consisted of a control group compared to groups recieveing either low molecular weight heparin or an anti-inflammatory peptide to assess their activity in ameliorating IRI. We used equimolar pooled RNA samples from each group to perform an exploratory microarray experiment.
