    The Use of an Haemoglobin Based Oxygen Carrier in a Human Liver Model of Normothermic Machine Perfusion.

    Y. Boteon,1 R. Laing,1 R. Bogal,1 D. Neil,2 A. Smith,2 B. Stephenson,2 A. Schlegel,2 S. Hübscher,2 D. Mirza,2 S. Afford,1 H. Mergental.2

    1Center of Liver Research, University of Birmingham, Birmingham, United Kingdom; 2Liver Unit Queen Elizabeth Hospital, University Hospital Birmingham, Birmingham, United Kingdom

    Normothermic machine perfusion of the liver (NMP-L) is a novel technique that preserves liver grafts in an environment that mimics physiological conditions and therefore enables…
  • 2017 American Transplant Congress

    The Delivery of Stem Cell Therapy to Extended Criteria Donor Human Livers Using Normothermic Machine Perfusion.

    R. Laing,1 S. Stubblefield,3 B. Ricky,1 S. Barnaby,2 M. Alfaifi,1 A. Ting,3 D. Mirza,2 P. Newsome,1 H. Mergental,2 S. Afford.1

    1Centre for Liver Research, University of Birmingham, Birmingham, United Kingdom; 2Liver Unit, University Hospital Birmingham, Birmingham, United Kingdom; 3Athersys Inc., Cleveland, OH

    Normothermic machine perfusion of the liver (NMP-L) has been used for organ preservation and viability testing of donor livers. Although previously proposed, delivery of cellular…
