Abstract
BACKGROUND: The influence of recombinant human prolactin (rh-PRL) added to Biolasol solution (concentration 1 μg/L) on selected markers (pH, osmolarity, Na(I) and K(I) concentration) and enzymatic activity (alanine aminotransferase [ALT], aspartate aminotransferase [AST], and lactate dehydrogenase [LDH]) in perfundates was investigated during flushing and preservation of the isolated porcine kidneys. METHODS: The pH, osmolarity, concentration of K(I) and Na(I), and enzymatic activity were determined in perfundates collected after the 5th and 30th minutes of perfusion, after 24 hours of organ preservation, and in the 5th and 30th minutes of reperfusion. Kidneys had been flushed and stored in Biolasol (control group) and in Biolasol with rh-PRL (experimental group). Obtained results were compared with Biolasol solution. RESULTS: In the experimental group, the decrease in pH value in the 5th minute of reperfusion was noted. There was an increase in K(I) concentration, and Na(I) concentration decreased in the 5th and 30th minutes of reperfusion. ALT activity during perfusion and preservation increased, whereas at the 5th and 30th minutes of reperfusion it decreased. AST activity increased during perfusion and preservation and decreased in the 5th and 30th minutes of reperfusion. LDH activity was increased but decreased in the 5th minute of reperfusion. CONCLUSIONS: Addition of 1 μg/L rh-PRL to Biolasol solution decreases pH and osmolarity values; influences Na(I) and K(I) concentration; increases ALT, AST activity during perfusion and preservation of organs; and decreases ALT, AST activity during reperfusion.
