Why donor hearts fail in cold storage — and how to prevent it

Researchers have discovered a new molecular process that occurs when donor hearts are preserved in cold storage which contributes to failure after transplant, a study in both humans and animals shows. Fortunately, therapy that is typically prescribed for high blood pressure can target this process to reduce cold preservation associated with cardiac injury. This discovery has potential to improve the consistent function of donor hearts and extend the distance they can be safely transported in cold storage.
