Abstract:
BACKGROUND: The quantity and bioactivity of isolated islet are vital to islet transplantation; while, the cold ischemia time and human leucocyte antigen (HLA) typing are key factors to islet quantity and bioactivity which inflect islet transplantation.OBJECTIVE: To observe the effects of cold ischemia time and blood compatibility on quantity and bioactivity of islet cells.DESIGN: Observational study.SETTING: Ruikang Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi College of Traditional Chinese Medicine.MATERIALS: Organs from voluntary donors died of irreversible coma were adopted whose blood-type and HLA typing had been known, pancreases acquisition was carried on after other organs ablation or in the meantime. The blood of identical ABO and HLA matching conformity, or HLA cross-matching hypersensitization (missmatching over 3 Iocuses),or panel reaction antibody (PRA) > 50%, or lymphocyte cytotoxin crossmatching test positive. The isolated and purified islet suspension was filtered by 70 μm filter, which result in preparing 1.2×105/L islet suspention.METHODS: Hypertonic citrate adenine solution was perfused into aorta, and kidney-pancreases and kidney-pancreases-liver were cut together or kidney-pancreases-liver was cut separately. Islet activity was judged by diphenylthiocarbazone (DTZ) dyeing and acridine orange (AO) dyeing; meanwhile, twelve pancreases far from contamination were aquired, mean ablation time was 15 minutes; cold ischemia time ranged from 2.5 to 8 hours. Cold ischemia time of nine pancreases was controlled in 5 hours, warm ischemia time was 0-3 minutes, and peptic time was (15±2.4) minutes, correlation of islet cells and histocompatibility with survival of islet cells was analyzed.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Survival rate of islet cells; counts of platelet, heterophil granulocyte and monocyte.RESULTS: The cutting of kidney, pancreases and liver were successful. If the cold ischemia time was controlled within 5 hours, activity of islets was above 80%. Pancreatic gland used for islet transplantation and cutting of other organs could not affect activity of islet cells. When human islets were exposed to human blood, it would induce a rapid consumption of platelets, neutrophils, monocytes and lymphocytes in the blood. Consumption of blood cells was more in the HLA typing groups than that in the control group. After adding heparin, there was significant difference in cell account among the three groups (P < 0.05) and the reaction was relieved obviously. After 24-hour cultivation, there were significant difference in active islets quantity between HLA typing compatibility group and HLA typing incompatibility group (P < 0.05).CONCLUSION: Pancreatic gland obtained under the cold ischemia time < 5 hours can be used in clinical transplantation of islet cells; a good histocompatibility can raise successful rate of transplantation of islet cells.
