OBJECTIVES: Xenotransplantation could be a future alternative to allotransplantation due to increasing organ shortage. Complement activation plays a major role in hyperacute rejection (HAR) in pig-to-human combinations. We developed an ex-vivo hemoperfusion (EHP) system to investigate pathophysiology of HAR in the lung. After standardizing the model, the effect of a soluble complement inhibitor (C1-INH, Berinert) was investigated.
METHODS: Pig lungs were harvested following cold perfusion with Celsior preservation solution. EHP was performed using fresh heparinized human blood plus C1-INH (n = 6) or heparinized human blood as control (n = 4). Bloodgas analyses (BGA), pulmonalarterial pressure (PAP) were monitored. P-selectin and L-selectin were measured. Tissue samples were taken and microscopic changes evaluated.
RESULTS: BGA, PAP, macroscopic and microscopic changes in the control group showed HAR, while the C1-INH group showed significantly longer function. Leucocytes and platelets were markedly activated in the control, whereas in the treated group L-selectin and P-selectin values indicated lower activation. HE stainings showed maintained lung architecture after perfusion of pig-lungs with human blood plus C1-INH. Immunohistochemistry showed less C1q, C3, C5b-9 activation in the C1-INH group.
CONCLUSIONS: Investigation of interaction of human blood with pig lung endothelium could be done in this model. C1-INH attenuates HAR in a pig-to-human lung transplantation model by decreasing the activation of adhesion molecules. C1-INH could play a role in induction therapy of future lung xenotransplantation.
