Figure 4. MMP activity in effuluents from preserved liver grafts.

Figure 4

Exudates were obtained from liver grafts preserved in control and CO-UW at the end of 18 hrs cold preservation, and gelatin zymography was conducted. Control UW and CO-UW solutions, as well as exudates from normal liver without cold storage (NM) were used as controls. Increased MMP activity was seen when liver grafts were preserved in control UW. 5% CO-UW significantly inhibited MMP activity in hepatic effluents. * p <0.05 vs control UW (n=3 for each group).
