Normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) technologies are emerging as an important adjunct in organ preservation and transplantation. NMP can enable the reduction or avoidance of cold ischemia and allows for pretransplant measurement of function and metabolic status to assess the suitability of the organ for transplantation. The key requirement of NMP is to provide an environment that is protective to the organ, ensures optimal oxygen delivery and supports metabolic function. Red blood cell-based solutions, artificial hemoglobin solutions, and acellular solutions have all been utilized in NMP. However, there is no clear consensus on perfusion protocols. A period of NMP after hypothermic preservation is the most commonly used strategy. As an alternative, several groups have developed and tested the feasibility of more prolonged periods of NMP. There are only a few reports of the application of NMP in clinical kidney transplantation and each uses different approach and conditions. This review details the rationale for NMP protocols considering duration of NMP and different perfusate compositions in experimental and clinical models. We also include a discussion on the mechanistic action of NMP, comparison of subnormothermic and hypothermic conditions, the different logistical approaches and future requirements.

Background: Dexamethasone has proven life-saving in severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) and COVID-19 cases. However, its systemic administration is accompanied by serious side effects. Inhalation delivery of dexamethasone (Dex) faces challenges such as low lung deposition, brief residence in the respiratory tract, and the pulmonary mucus barrier, limiting its clinical use.

: The rising use of liver grafts from donation after circulatory death (DCD) has been enabled by advances in normothermic regional perfusion (NRP) and machine perfusion (MP) technologies. We aimed to identify predictive biomarkers in DCD grafts subjected to NRP, followed by randomization to either normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) or dual hypothermic oxygenated perfusion (D-HOPE). : Among 57 DCD donors, 32 liver grafts were transplanted, and recipients were monitored for one week post-transplant.

This study synthesizes a novel three-dimensional (3D) porous coordination polymer (CP), {[Co(L)₀.₅(H₂O)]·NMP·H₂O} (1), via a solvothermal method in a mixed solvent of water and NMP (1-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone), reacting Co(II) ions with H₄L (1,4-bis(5,6-carboxybenzimidazolylmethyl)benzene). The CP exhibits unique fluorescence properties, emitting at 420 nm under UV light excitation at 350 nm, and serves as a carrier for Mesalazine (MSZ) in therapeutic applications.

Background: Accurate diagnosis of tuberculosis (TB) in children continues to be challenging, primarily due to the low bacterial load characteristic of the disease and the obstacles in collecting sputum samples. Furthermore, detecting cases of latent Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M.tb) infection (LTBI) that have a high risk of progressing to active TB disease remains a significant diagnostic hurdle.

Traditional photosensitive polyimide (PSPI) materials require a high curing temperature and exhibit low transparency, limiting their applications in thermally sensitive optical devices. To overcome this challenge, soluble photosensitive polyimide resins were synthesized based on the structural design of a bio-based magnolol monomer. It is noteworthy that the PI photoresist, developed by using the as-prepared polyimides and non-toxic solvents (2-acetoxy-1-methoxypropane, PGEMA) and other additives, demonstrated an impressive low-temperature curing performance (180 °C).
