Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed relating to extracorporeal fetal care. A fetal chamber assembly configured to enclose and support a fetus therein includes a base configured to receive the fetus therein; a lid configured to removably contact the base to form a liquid-tight seal between the lid and the base; a growth chamber defined between the base and the lid, the growth chamber being configured to receive the fetus therein; and a cannulation chamber in fluid communication with the growth chamber, the cannulation chamber being configured to receive therein a cannulated umbilical cord of the fetus. The growth chamber is configured to be adjusted in size to accommodate the fetus during gestation based on the size of the fetus, and the fetal chamber assembly is configured to receive a liquid from a liquid source.

Abstract: Provided are a blood bag system and a blood treatment method capable of securely and efficiently obtaining a medium specific gravity blood component having a sufficiently low content rate of a light specific gravity blood component.In a blood bag system (10) used for a blood treatment method, in a transfer completed state in which whole blood in a first bag (12) is centrifuged to transfer blood plasma to a second bag (14) through a first transfer tube (24) and transfer red cell concentrates to a third bag (16) through a second transfer tube (26), a buffy coat is left in the first bag (12). In the transfer completed state, when a platelet added solution is transferred from a fourth bag (18) to the first bag (12) on which a centrifugal force acts through a third transfer tube (28), blood plasma in the buffy coat is discharged from the first bag (12).

Abstract: The present invention relates to methods and compositions for the preservation of organs. The inventors showed that therapeutic intervention during cold ischemia could significantly alter outcome, suggesting active mechanisms taking place. More particularly, the inventors demonstrated that Unfolded Protein Response could be a critical pathway underlying the relationship between cold ischemia time and graft outcome, highlighting the potential for UPR-based therapeutics to improve transplantation efficiency. In particular, the present invention relates to an activator of PERK-ATF4 pathway, an inhibitor of the ATF6 pathway and an inhibitor of the RNase activity of IRE1α for use in the maintain of organ viability during cold ischemia.

Abstract: Systems and methods of the invention generally relate to prolonging viability of bodily tissue, especially lung tissue, through the use of an expandable accumulator to maintain a constant pressure within the lumen of the organ even during external pressure fluctuations due to, for example, flight. Systems and methods may include prolonging donor organ viability in storage through the use of an organ container that mimics the geometry and orientation of the organ in vivo.
