Transcriptomic signatures during normothermic liver machine perfusion correspond with graft quality and predict the early graft function

A better understanding of the molecular events during liver normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) is warranted to develop a data-based approach for the identification of biomarkers representative of graft quality and posttransplant outcome. We analysed the dynamic transcriptional changes during NMP and linked them to clinical and biochemical parameters.
