We recently showed that adding sodium thiosulfate (STS), a hydrogen sulfide (H2S) donor, to University of Wisconsin (UW) solution protects against renal IRI. However, it is unknown if treatment of kidney donors with H2S before ischemia can also protect against renal IRI. We hypothesize that STS treatment of kidney donors before graft procurement will protect renal grafts against IRI and thereby improve graft function. METHODS: Rat (NRK-52E) and human (HK-2) kidney epithelial cells were exposed to 24 (NRK-52E) or 18 (HK-2) hours of 37°C hypoxia and 24 hours of reoxygenation. NRK-52E cells were treated with 150 μM STS for 2 hours before hypoxia while HK-2 cells were treated with 150 μM, 500 μM, 1 mM, 5 mM, or 10 mM of STS for 24 hours before hypoxia. Cell viability was assessed via flow cytometry. In our in vivo model, donor rats were injected with saline or 2.4 mg STS/kg 30 minutes before organ procurement. Renal grafts were stored in UW or UW+150 μM STS at 4°C for 24 hours and transplanted into recipient rats, which were monitored until post-operative day (POD) 3 and sacrificed to measure blood, urinary, and tissue markers of graft function and injury. RESULTS: STS pre-treatment significantly improved cell viability (p<0.01) in NRK-52E cells while preliminary data suggest that STS pre-treatment improves cell viability in HK-2 cells. Our preliminary in vivo data suggest that STS pre-treatment and supplementation to UW solution improve recipient kidney function. CONCLUSIONS: Our results show that STS pre-treatment is protective in in vitro models of warm IRI. Preliminary data from our in vivo model suggest STS pre-treatment may protect against transplantation-induced renal IRI, warranting further study.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
