From: Increased ENaC activity during kidney preservation in Wisconsin solution
Effect of preservation in UW solution on kidney weight, morphology and LDH levels. a Changes in the kidney weight during the different time periods of preservation in UW solution. b Kidney morphology after UW solution. The kidney collected from SD rat stored for 48 h in UW solution (right) compared to control kidney (left). c Representative histological images (20X) of renal cortex reflecting kidney volume of control kidney and following preservation in UW solution for 48 h. Scale bars are shown. d Effect of preservation in UW solution for different time periods on kidney damage as assessed by LDH concentration. Data represent mean ± SEM. *** – p < 0.001 compared with control kidneys by one-way ANOVA using Tukey’s multiple comparison post-test. The number of kidneys in each group is shown (one kidney per rat was used for experiments)
