For pancreatic islet transplantation, maintaining organ viability after pancreas procurement is critical and a major determinant for better graft function and survival. University of Wisconsin (UW) solution is currently the gold standard for abdominal organ preservation and the pancreas in particular. However, in the use of UW preservation solution for islet transplantation, there are disadvantages to be overcome, such as the inhibition of collagenase activity during pancreatic digestion. In this study, we compared UW solution with HN-1 solution in pancreas preservation for islet isolation. Islet yield was significantly greater in the HN-1 group than the UW group both before and after purification. In the in vitro assay, the adenosine triphosphate content in cultured islets was significantly higher in the HN-1 group than in the UW group. Furthermore, in streptozotocin-induced diabetic nude mice, the islet graft function of the HN-1 group was superior to that of the UW group. We concluded that the use of HN-1 solution is a promising approach for optimal pancreas preservation in islet transplantation.
