AI Technical Summary
Transplantation medicine faces challenges due to limited healthy organs and transplant rejection, primarily attributed to the recipient's immune response and unhealthy donor organs, with existing methods inadequately addressing the removal of subcellular nanoparticles and viral particles that cause inflammation and tissue damage.
The use of lectin and/or antibody-based affinity methods to remove pathogens, viral particles, extracellular vesicles, miRNAs, and nucleic acids from donor organs and recipients, employing an extracorporeal device with a support like diatomaceous earth or an ion exchange resin to immobilize Galanthus nivalis lectin (GNA) or antibodies, thereby reducing harmful components and improving organ viability and engraftment.
This approach enhances organ viability, engraftment, and recipient survival by reducing molecules associated with rejection, ischemia-reperfusion injury, and poor outcomes, improving the quality of donor organs and transplant success rates.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention
[0002] Aspects of the present invention relate to methods for improving transplantation by removing subcellular nanoparticles, a pathogen, viral particles, virus-like particles (VLPs), extracellular vesicles, such as exosomes or ectosomes, miRNAs, nucleic acids, including DNA or RNA, extracellular vesicle associated DNA, circulating extracellular DNA (ceDNA), a biomarker or mediator of tissue damage, Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) and their components including DNA, histones, neutrophil granule proteins or oxidant enzymes, inflammatory or immunomodulatory glycoproteins, glycolipids or lipoglycans, or fragments thereof, from donor organs, organ perfusate, a population of cells or a tissue, or from the organ or tissue donor or recipient before, during and / or after transplantation. Description of the Related Art
[0003] Transplantation medicine has been incredibly challenging due to the limited number of healthy, viable organs and transplant rejection, which occurs in many patients. Many in the field attribute transplant rejection to the recipient’s immune response to the transplanted organ and / or unhealthy organs obtained from the donor.
[0004] Extracellular vesicles including exosomes and ectosomes are released by cells, including but not limited to mammalian cells. Methods of removing circulatingextracellular vesicles, virus, and viral fragments from a patient’s blood using extracorporeal devices are well known (see e.g., U.S. Patent Numbers 9,707,333; and 10,022,483, herein expressly incorporated by reference in their entireties). The need for approaches to reduce transplant rejection and provide donor organs, cells or tissues that produce less inflammation in a recipient is manifest. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
[0005] Aspects of the present invention described herein include devices and methods for removing pathogens, viral particles, virus-like particles (VLPs), extracellular vesicles, such as exosomes or ectosomes, miRNAs, nucleic acids, such as DNA or RNA, circulating extracellular DNA (ceDNA), extracellular vesicle associated DNA, Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) and their components including DNA, histones, neutrophil granule proteins and / or oxidant enzymes, inflammatory or immunomodulatory glycoproteins, glycolipids or lipoglycans, or fragments thereof from an organ donor, cell or tissue donor, an organ, an organ perfusate, a population of cells or tissue being transplanted and / or the organ, cell, or tissue recipient so as to increase or improve organ, cell, or tissue viability, engraftment, and / or survival of the transplant and / or transplant recipient or to remove molecules or compositions, which are associated with tissue rejection, ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI), organ failure, necrosis, or poor patient outcome after transplantation. Aspects of the present invention concern more generally the use of lectin (e.g., GNA) and / or antibody-based affinity methods for removal of pathogens, viral particles, virus-like particles (VLPs), extracellular vesicles, such as exosomes or ectosomes, miRNAs, nucleic acids, such as DNA or RNA, circulating extracellular DNA (ceDNA), Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) and their components including DNA, extracellular vesicle associated DNA, histones, neutrophil granule proteins and / or oxidant enzymes, inflammatory or immunomodulatory glycoproteins, glycolipids or lipoglycans, from a transplant donor, transplant recipient, and / or organ, tissue, an organ perfusate, or population of cells selected for transplantation. Additional embodiments concern the reintroduction of the sample obtained after a lectin and / or antibody affinity isolation or capture (e.g., after lectin and / or antibody affinity in an extracorporeal device having a substrate with an immobilized lectin and / or antibody or a column packed with lectin affinity resin (e.g., GNA)) into the subject (e.g., the donor and / or recipient of the organ, anorgan perfusate, cell population, or tissue) or an isolated organ, an organ perfusate, population of cells or tissue selected for transplantation, wherein the sample obtained after the lectin and / or antibody affinity isolation or capture comprises a reduced amount of pathogens, viral particles, virus-like particles (VLPs), extracellular vesicles, such as exosomes or ectosomes, miRNAs, nucleic acids, such as DNA or RNA, circulating extracellular DNA (ceDNA), Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) and their components including DNA, extracellular vesicle associated DNA, histones, neutrophil granule proteins and / or oxidant enzymes, inflammatory or immunomodulatory glycoproteins, glycolipids or lipoglycans, or fragments thereof as compared to the sample prior to said lectin and / or antibody affinity isolation or capture. Additional embodiments concern selecting a subject (e.g., a transplant donor or recipient) for receiving a lectin and / or antibody affinity therapy accompanying a transplantation procedure (e.g., extracorporeal therapy), which removes pathogens, viral particles, virus-like particles (VLPs), extracellular vesicles, such as exosomes or ectosomes, miRNAs, nucleic acids, such as DNA or RNA, circulating extracellular DNA (ceDNA), Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) and their components including DNA, extracellular vesicle associated DNA, histones, neutrophil granule proteins and / or oxidant enzymes, inflammatory or immunomodulatory glycoproteins, glycolipids or lipoglycans, or fragments thereof. In some embodiments, the sample, such as blood or plasma from the subject (e.g., transplant donor and / or recipient) or an organ perfusate, is screened for the presence of (e.g., detecting or identifying), pathogens, viral particles, virus-like particles (VLPs), extracellular vesicles, such as exosomes or ectosomes, miRNAs, nucleic acids, such as DNA or RNA, circulating extracellular DNA (ceDNA), Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) and their components including DNA, extracellular vesicle associated DNA, histones, neutrophil granule proteins and / or oxidant enzymes, inflammatory or immunomodulatory glycoproteins, glycolipids or lipoglycans or fragments thereof, before, during, or after the lectin and / or antibody affinity isolation or capture. In some embodiments, the glycan profile of extracellular vesicles, such as exosomes, ectosomes, or fragments thereof, from the sample from said donor and / or recipient and / or organ, cell population, or tissue selected for transplantation is analyzed. In some embodiments, the ability of extracellular vesicles, such as exosomes, ectosomes, or fragments thereof to bind to a lectin, such as GNA, or an antibody is determined. In some embodiments, performing the method for removing pathogens, viral particles, virus-likeparticles (VLPs), extracellular vesicles, such as exosomes or ectosomes, miRNAs, nucleic acids, such as DNA or RNA, circulating extracellular DNA (ceDNA), Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) and their components including DNA, extracellular vesicle associated DNA, histones, neutrophil granule proteins and / or oxidant enzymes, inflammatory or immunomodulatory glycoproteins, glycolipids or lipoglycans, or fragments thereof accompanying an organ, cell, or tissue transplantation procedure, improves, enhances, or benefits the organ, cell population, or tissue viability, engraftment, and / or survival and / or the survival of the recipient is increased or improved, as compared to the organ, cell population, or tissue viability, engraftment, and / or survival of the transplant or recipient after transplantation in the absence of performing such methods for removing pathogens, viral particles, virus-like particles (VLPs), extracellular vesicles, such as exosomes or ectosomes, miRNAs, nucleic acids, such as DNA or RNA, circulating extracellular DNA (ceDNA), Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) and their components including DNA, extracellular vesicle associated DNA, histones, neutrophil granule proteins and / or oxidant enzymes inflammatory or immunomodulatory glycoproteins, glycolipids or lipoglycans, or fragments thereof.

For example, an “isolated cell,” as used herein, includes a cell that has been purified from the milieu or organisms in its naturally occurring state, a cell that has been removed from a subject or from a culture, for example, it is not significantly associated with in vivo or in vitro substances.
[0036] The terms “treat”, “treating”, “treatment”, “therapeutic”, or “therapy” as used herein has its ordinary meaning as understood in light of the specification, and do not necessarily mean total cure or abolition of the disease or condition. The term “treating” or “treatment” as used herein (and as well understood in the art) also means an approach for obtaining beneficial or desired results in a subject's condition, including clinical results.Beneficial or desired clinical results can include, but are not limited to, alleviation or amelioration of one or more symptoms or conditions, diminishment of the extent of a disease, stabilizing (i.e., not worsening) the state of disease, prevention of a disease's transmission or spread, delaying or slowing of disease progression, amelioration or palliation of the disease state, diminishment of the reoccurrence of disease, and remission, whether partial or total and whether detectable or undetectable. “Treating” and “treatment” as used herein also include prophylactic treatment. Treatment methods comprise administering to a subject a therapeutically effective amount of an active agent or use of a therapeutic device. The administering step may consist of a single administration or may comprise a series of administrations. The compositions are administered or applied to the subject in an amount, for a duration, or for a number or repetitions sufficient to treat the patient. The length of the treatment period depends on a variety of factors, such as the severity of the condition, the age and genetic profile of the patient. It will also be appreciated that the treatment or prophylaxis may be modified over the course of a particular treatment or prophylaxis regime. In some instances, chronic administration or application may be required.

Nucleic acid molecules can be composed of monomers that are naturally-occurring nucleotides (such as DNA and RNA), or analogs of naturally-occurring nucleotides (e.g., enantiomeric forms of naturally-occurring nucleotides), or a combination of both. A nucleic acid or nucleic acid molecule can comprise one or more sequences encoding different peptides, polypeptides, or proteins. These one or more sequences can be joined in the same nucleic acid or nucleic acid molecule adjacently, or with extra nucleic acids in between, e.g. linkers, repeats or restriction enzyme sites, or any other sequence that is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, 60, 65, 70, 75, 80, 85, 90, 95, 100, 150, 200, or 300 bases long, or any length in a range defined by any two of the aforementioned lengths.
[0039] The terms “peptide”, “polypeptide”, and “protein” as used herein refers to macromolecules comprised of amino acids linked by peptide bonds. The numerous functions of peptides, polypeptides, and proteins are known in the art, and include but are not limited to enzymes, structure, transport, defense, hormones, or signaling. Peptides, polypeptides, and proteins are often, but not always, produced biologically by a ribosomal complex using a nucleic acid template, although chemical syntheses are also available. By manipulating the nucleic acid template, peptide, polypeptide, and protein mutations such as substitutions, deletions, truncations, additions, duplications, or fusions of more than one peptide, polypeptide, or protein can be performed. These fusions of more than one peptide, polypeptide, or protein can be joined in the same molecule adjacently, or with extra amino acids in between, e.g. linkers, repeats, epitopes, or tags, or any other sequence that is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, 60, 65, 70, 75, 80, 85, 90, 95, 100, 150, 200, or 300 bases long, or any length in a range defined by any two of the aforementioned lengths.
[0040] As used herein, a “lectin” is a protein that binds selectively to polysaccharides and glycoproteins. Although many are insufficiently specific to be useful,certain lectins are highly selective for enveloped viruses. Among lectins which have this property are those derived from Galanthus nivalis in the form of Galanthus nivalis agglutinin (“GNA”), Narcissus pseudonarcissus in the form of Narcissus pseudonarcissus agglutinin (“NPA”) and a lectin derived from blue green algae Nostoc ellipsosporum called “cyanovirin”. GNA is non-toxic and sufficiently safe that it has been incorporated into genetically engineered rice and potatoes (Bell et al. Transgenic Res 10(1): 35-42, 2001; Rao et al. Plant J 15(4): 469- 477, 1998). These lectins bind to glycoproteins having a high mannose content such as found in HIV surface proteins (Chervenak et al. Biochemistry 34(16): 5685-5695, 1995).
[0041] As used herein, a “mannose glycoprotein” refers to a glycoprotein having mannose-mannose linkages in the form of Į-1ĺ3, Į-1ĺ6 mannose-mannose linkages, such as, high mannose, pauci-mannose, or oligomannose glycoproteins. High-mannose glycans typically contain between five and nine mannose residues attached to the chitobiose (GlcNAc2) core; with some of the mannose being alpha 1-3 or alpha 1-6. Pauci-mannose is an N-glycan moiety containing two core GlcNAc residues and two or three Mannose residues that do not bear oligosaccharide extensions. Oligomannose is a glycan that is an oligomer composed of mannose units.
[0042] As used herein, a "viral load" refers to the amount of viral particles, virus- like particles (VLP), or toxic fragments thereof in a biological fluid, such as blood, plasma or organ perfusion fluid. Viral load is accordingly related to the number of virus particles in the body Viral load can therefore be a measure of any of a variety of indicators of the presence of a virus, such as viral copy number per unit of blood, plasma or organ perfusion fluid or units of viral proteins or fragments thereof per unit of blood, plasma or organ perfusion fluid.
[0043] As used herein, the term “microRNA” or “miRNA” refers to highly conserved non-coding RNA molecules, about 21-25 nucleotides in length that play critical roles in regulating post-transcriptional gene expression by targeting messenger RNA (mRNA) of protein-coding genes. Mature miRNAs exist in the cellular cytoplasm as RNA duplexes to which an argonaute (Ago2) protein and a glycine-tryptophan repeat-containing protein bind, forming the core of a multi-subunit complex called the miRNA-mediating silencing complex (miRISC). The miRNA duplex contains two strands identified with either the suffix “-5p” (from the 5’ arm of pre-miRNA) or “-3p” (from the 3’ arm of the pre-miRNA). One of the strands of the duplex is typically discarded (passenger strand) while the retained strand guidesmRNA target selection (guide strand). However, in some cases, two mature miRNAs excised from the 5’ and 3’ arms of the same stem-loop pre-miRNA have been reported to be functional and target on different mRNA. Once assembled into the miRISC through base-pairing interactions between nucleotides 2 and 8 of the miRNA and complementary nucleotides predominantly in the 3’-untranslated regions (UTR) of mRNAs, miRNAs act as repressors of translation. Each miRNA binds to many specific target mRNAs and often not to those in the same molecular pathway. miRNAs exist as both free-floating entities in plasma and other biofluids and also packaged into exosomes. It is believed that extracellular, non-miRNAs in circulation are by-products of dead cells stably bound to the Ago2 protein. Exosomes, which are produced in large quantities by diseased and activated cells, are packed with a full complement of the parent cell’s cargo, including miRNA.
[0044] Some miRNAs have been identified as ubiquitously associated with various diseases. Specific miRNAs have been described as “fine-tuners” of immune responses that can either promote an inflammatory state or have anti-inflammatory effects by regulating toll-like receptor signaling. miRNAs are also non-antigenic, allowing them to escape immune surveillance, which can be beneficial for the virus. In viral infections, certain miRNAs may serve both as antiviral tools that stimulate the innate and adaptive immune systems while others have roles in viral propagation. Host miRNAs can be regulated by viruses and viruses can also usurp cellular resources to produce their own miRNAs that participate in immune evasion and maintaining infection. The presence of the various viral and host miRNAs may be monitored when evaluating the outcome of a therapeutic strategy.
[0045] As used herein, “ectosomes” are extracellular vesicles assembled at and released from the plasma membrane whereas exosomes are released on the exocytosis of multivesicular bodies (MVBs). Despite their considerable differences, the functions of ectosomes may be largely analogous to those of exosomes. In some contexts, the term ectosome is used interchangeably with extracellular vesicles or other terms known in the field, including, but not limited to microparticles, microvesicles, or shedding vesicles.
[0046] As used herein, “NETs” refer to neutrophil extracellular traps. NETs are released by activated neutrophils in the setting of signals including LPS, HMGB-1, pro- inflammatory cytokines, microorganisms and / or activated platelets, as well as, exosomes. NETs are released by neutrophils and are composed of DNA, histones, neutrophil granulationproteins, including myeloperoxidase and neutrophil elastase, and / or oxidant enzymes. NETs serve as microbial traps but also have been demonstrated to cause direct organ injury in a number of conditions.
[0047] As used herein “ceDNA” refers to circulating extracellular DNA and is produced by neutrophils in response to various stimuli including infections or inflammation. ceDNAs are present as NETs and are known to worsen the prognosis of various diseases. As used herein, “cytokines” refer to proteins or fragments or mutants thereof that modulate the immune system. Some non-limiting examples of cytokines include chemokines, interferons, interleukins, lymphokines and tumor necrosis factors. As used herein, “chemokines” or “chemotactic cytokines” are a family of small cytokines that are involved in cell migration. Biological samples
[0048] Some embodiments provided herein include or utilize or analyze a biological sample, which can be referred to as a “sample.” Biological samples include, for example, cell culture media, organ perfusion fluid or perfusate with or without red blood cells or oxygen carriers, which may be near normothermic or hypothermic, including but not limited to Steen solution and University of Wisconsin solution and samples obtained from a subject. As used herein, the term "subject" includes an animal, a mammal, and a human or porcine. A sample, which may be obtained from a subject, can include any organ, tissue or fluid from the subject that may contain subcellular nanoparticles, a pathogen, viral particles, virus-like particles (VLPs), extracellular vesicles, such as exosomes or ectosomes, miRNAs, miRNAs, extracellular vesicle associated DNA, nucleic acids, such as DNA or RNA, circulating extracellular DNA (ceDNA), a biomarker or mediator of tissue damage, Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) and their components including DNA, histones, neutrophil granule proteins and / or oxidant enzymes, inflammatory or immunomodulatory glycoproteins, glycolipids or lipoglycans, or fragments thereof. Examples of such samples include cell culture media, organ perfusion fluid or perfusate with or without red blood cells or oxygen carriers, which may be near normothermic or hypothermic, including but not limited to Steen solution and University of Wisconsin solution, peripheral blood, sera, plasma, ascites, urine, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), sputum, saliva, bone marrow, synovial fluid, aqueous humor, amniotic fluid, cerumen, breast milk, bronchioalveolar lavage fluid, semen (including prostaticfluid), Cowper's fluid or pre-ejaculatory fluid, female ejaculate, sweat, fecal matter, hair, tears, cyst fluid, pleural and peritoneal fluid, pericardial fluid, lymph, chyme, chyle, bile, interstitial fluid, menses, pus, sebum, vomit, vaginal secretions, mucosal secretion, stool water, pancreatic juice, lavage fluids from sinus cavities, bronchopulmonary aspirates or other lavage or perfusion fluids.

In some embodiments, the sample comprises ascites fluid from a subject. In some embodiments, the sample comprises plasma from a subject. In some embodiments, the biological sample may be obtained from a subject that is alive. In some embodiments, the biological sample may be obtained from a subject that is deceased. In some embodiments, the biological sample may be obtained from an animal that will have organs harvested for purposes of xenotransplantation. Extracellular vesicles, Exosomes and Ectosomes
[0049] Aspects of the invention concern the use of lectin affinity (e.g., employing a column having a substrate to which a lectin, such as Galanthus nivalis (GNA), is attached or a column packed with lectin affinity resin (e.g., GNA)) to remove extracellular vesicles (e.g., exosomes or ectosomes) from an organ donor or organ recipient prior to, during, or after transplantation or the organ itself after removal from the donor, such as during or after perfusion, which can be near normothermic or hypothermic perfusion. Some embodiments provided herein include a sample comprising extracellular vesicles, (e.g., exosomes or ectosomes). Generally, extracellular vesicles, (e.g., exosomes or ectosomes) are small vesicles that are released into the extracellular environment from a variety of different cells, for example, cells that originate from, or are derived from, the ectoderm, endoderm, or mesoderm including any such cells that have undergone genetic, environmental, and / or any other variations or alterations. An exosome, for example, is typically created intracellularly when a segment of the cell membrane spontaneously invaginates and is ultimately exocytosed (see e.g., Keller et al. (2006), Immunol. Lett. 107: 102-8, incorporated by reference herein in its entirety). In some embodiments, the extracellular vesicles (e.g., exosomes) have a diameter ofgreater than about 10 nm, 20 nm, or 30 nm; a diameter that is, or is about, 30-1000 nm, 30-800 nm, 30-200 nm, or 30-100 nm. In some embodiments, extracellular vesicles (e.g., exosomes) have a diameter of less than, or less than about, 10,000 nm, 1000 nm, 800 nm, 500 nm, 200 nm, 100 nm or 50 nm. In some contexts, the term extracellular vesicle is used interchangeably with exosomes or other terms known in the field, including, but not limited to, small extracellular vesicles, oncosomes, CytoVesicles, microvesicles, nanovesicles, vesicles, dexosomes, bleb, blebby, prostasomes, microparticles, intralumenal vesicles, endosomal-like vesicles or exocytosed vehicles. In some embodiments, said extracellular vesicles can comprise cytokines or chemokines as cargo and such extracellular vesicles can be removed using the technology set forth herein. Extracellular vesicles can also include any shed membrane bound particle that is derived from either the plasma membrane or an internal membrane. Extracellular vesicles can also include cell-derived structures bounded by a lipid bilayer membrane arising from both herniated evagination separation and sealing of portions of the plasma membrane or from the export of any intracellular membrane-bounded vesicular structure containing various membrane-associated proteins of tumor origin, including surface- bound molecules derived from the host circulation that bind selectively to the tumor-derived proteins together with molecules contained in the exosome lumen including tumor-derived microRNAs or intracellular proteins. Extracellular vesicles (e.g., exosomes or ectosomes) can also include membrane fragments.
[0050] In some embodiments, the extracellular vesicles (e.g., exosomes or ectosomes) are from subjects having transplant or tissue rejection or subjects believed to be at risk for ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI), delayed graft function (DGF) and / or transplant or tissue rejection. In some embodiments, the transplant is a solid organ transplant. Some non- limiting examples of a solid organ transplant include kidney, liver, intestines, heart, lung, or pancreas. In some embodiments, the transplant is a transplantation of a population of cells. In some embodiments, the transplant is a kidney transplant. Some non-limiting examples of the population of cells transplant include a stem cell or a bone marrow transplant, pancreatic islet cells transplant, or chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR T) cells transplant. In some embodiments, the transplant rejection in a subject is hyperacute rejection. In some embodiments, the transplant rejection in a subject is acute rejection. In some embodiments, the transplant rejection in a subject is chronic rejection. In some embodiments, the transplantrejection is cell- mediated while in some embodiments the transplant rejection is antibody- mediated. In some embodiments, the extracellular vesicles (e.g., exosomes or ectosomes) are from samples having a delayed graft function (DGF) in kidney transplantation. In some embodiments, the extracellular vesicles (e.g., exosomes or ectosomes) are from samples having a transplant of normothermic machine perfused organs. In some embodiments, the extracellular vesicles (e.g., exosomes or ectosomes) are from samples having a transplant of hypothermic machine perfused organs. In some embodiments, the extracellular vesicles (e.g., exosomes or ectosomes) are from samples subjected to static cold storage. In some embodiments, the extracellular vesicles (e.g., exosomes or ectosomes) are from samples that have an Ischemia- reperfusion injury. In some embodiments, the extracellular vesicles (e.g., exosomes or ectosomes) are from samples having at least one or more of a delayed graft function (DGF), a transplant of normothermic machine perfused organs, transplanted with organs subjected to static cold storage and having an Ischemia-reperfusion injury.
[0051] In some embodiments, the extracellular vesicles (e.g., exosomes or ectosomes) are from an organ, a cell or a tissue donor. In some embodiments, the extracellular vesicles (e.g., exosomes or ectosomes) are from an organ, a population of cells or a tissue that has been removed from a donor. In some embodiments, the extracellular vesicles (e.g., exosomes or ectosomes) are from an organ, a population of cells or a tissue that has been transplanted into a recipient. In some embodiments, the extracellular vesicles (e.g., exosomes or ectosomes) are from an organ perfusate. In some embodiments, the extracellular vesicles (e.g., exosomes or ectosomes) are from a kidney perfusate. In some embodiments, the extracellular vesicles (e.g., exosomes or ectosomes) are from a recipient after an organ, a population of cells or a tissue has been transplanted. miRNAs
[0052] Aspects of the invention concern the use of lectin affinity (e.g., employing a column having a substrate, such as diatomaceous earth, to which a lectin such as GNA, NPA, SNA, and / or MAL is attached or a column comprising a lectin affinity resin (e.g., GNA)) to remove miRNAs from an organ, an organ perfusate, a population of cells or a tissue donor or an organ, a population of cells or a tissue recipient prior to, during, or after transplantation or the organ itself after removal from the donor such as during or after perfusion, which can benear normothermic or hypothermic perfusion. Some non-limiting examples of miRNAs include miR 23a, miR 374b-5p, miR28-5p and / or miR24-3p, miR-223, let-7e-5p, and / or miR- 486-3p. Generally, delayed graft function (DGF) is defined as failure of the renal transplant to function immediately with a need for dialysis during the first week after transplantation. DGF affects approximately 30% of cases of renal transplantation. Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury is implicated in the development of DGF and exosomes containing miR 23a and / or miR 374b- 5p are released in kidneys with ischemia-reperfusion injury as illustrated in FIG.4. In some embodiments, the release of exosomes containing miR 23a and / or miR 374b-5p result in decreased regulation of NF-^B. In some embodiments, the release of exosomes containing miR 23a and / or miR 374b-5p result in suppression of Suppressor Of Cytokine Signaling 1 (SOCS1). In some embodiments, the release of exosomes containing miR 23a and / or miR 374b-5p results in conversion of macrophages to a pro-inflammatory M1 macrophages. In some embodiments, the conversion of macrophages results in release of pro-inflammatory cytokines, which cause tubulointerstitial inflammation in the kidneys. Accordingly, some embodiments concern methods of increasing the regulation of NF-^B, decreasing SOCS1 suppression, decreasing the conversion of macrophages to a pro-inflammatory M1 macrophages, or decreasing the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines in a subject having exosomes containing miR 23a and / or miR 374b-5p, wherein said subject receives an extracorporeal therapy, which utilizes any one or more of the lectin affinity devices described herein, such as a device comprising a column having a substrate, such as diatomaceous earth, to which a lectin such as GNA, NPA, SNA, and / or MAL is attached or a column packed with lectin affinity resin (e.g., GNA)). Such extracorporeal therapies and methods can include contacting blood and / or plasma or organ perfusion solution from said subject or harvested organ having exosomes containing miR 23a, miR 374b-5p, miR28-5p and / or miR24-3p with a column having a substrate, such as diatomaceous earth, to which a lectin such as GNA is attached or a column packed with lectin affinity resin (e.g., GNA)) for a time sufficient to bind said exosomes containing miR 23a, miR 374b-5p, miR28-5p and / or miR24-3p to said diatomaceous earth and / or lectin or a column packed with lectin affinity resin (e.g., GNA)) and reintroducing the blood and / or plasma or organ perfusion solution from said subject back into said subject or harvested organ, wherein the blood, plasma or organ perfusion fluid that is reintroduced, i.e., after contact with the column, has less exosomes containing miR 23a, miR 374b-5p, miR28-5p and / or miR24-3pthan the blood or plasma or organ perfusion solution from said subject or organ prior to contact with the column. In some embodiments, the subject is identified or selected as one having exosomes containing miR 23a, miR 374b-5p, miR28-5p and / or miR24-3p prior to and / or after receiving the aforementioned extracorporeal therapy e.g., a sample of said subject’s blood or plasma or organ perfusion solution is analyzed for the presence of exosomes containing miR 23a, miR 374b-5p, miR28-5p and / or miR24-3p before, during, and / or after receiving the aforementioned extracorporeal therapy. Such analysis can be performed by isolating exosomes from said subject or organ and analyzing the RNA present in said exosomes utilizing standard techniques in RNA analysis, such as sequencing or primer extension, or selective amplification after reverse transcription of the RNAs into cDNAs. In some embodiments the donor organ is placed on a perfusion circuit including the Hemopurifier®. Perfusate microRNAs are preferably measured before and during the procedure for a decline over time.
[0053] In some embodiments, exosomes containing miR 23a, miR 374b-5p, miR28-5p and / or miR24-3p are obtained utilizing one or more of the devices and methods set forth herein from subjects having transplant or tissue rejection or subjects believed to be at risk for ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI), delayed graft function (DGF) and / or a transplant or tissue rejection. In some embodiments, the transplant is a solid organ transplant. Some non- limiting examples of the solid organ transplant include kidney, liver, intestines, heart, lung, or pancreas.

[0081] In some embodiments, the devices, systems and methods described herein comprise one or more hollow fiber cartridges containing an affinity agent that is a lectin, whichpreferably is GNA. Other lectins include NPA, Concanavalin A and cyanovirin. Examples of extracorporeal devices comprising lectins that can be used in the methods disclosed herein may be found in WO 2007 / 103572, WO 2009 / 023332, and WO 2010 / 065765, each of which is hereby expressly incorporated by reference in its entirety.
[0082] Accordingly, some embodiments relate to the use of extracorporeal devices comprising a lectin and a support such as diatomaceous earth (e.g., Hemopurifier®therapy), for removing viral particles or fragments thereof ,extracellular vesicles (e.g., exosomes from blood or plasma or organ perfusion fluid from a subject or an organ to be transplanted), miRNAs, nucleic acids, such as DNA or RNA, circulating extracellular DNA (ceDNA), Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) and their components including DNA, histones, neutrophil granule proteins and / or oxidant enzymes, inflammatory or immunomodulatory glycoproteins, glycolipids or lipoglycans, or fragments thereof. In some embodiments, the extracorporeal device comprises one or more hollow fiber cartridges comprising the lectin e.g., GNA. In accordance with hollow fiber membrane technology provided herein or otherwise known in the art, embodiments of the invention can involve a size exclusion mechanism for extracellular subcellular nanoparticles (including but not limited to viral particles, or fragments thereof, inflammatory mediating nanoparticles, extracellular vesicles, e.g., exosomes) to contact the affinity matrix, wherein larger blood components (including cells) are restricted from passing through the pores of the hollow fibers into the extra-capillary space of the device where the affinity agent resides. In some embodiments, the pore sizes range from 20-200 nanometers or 20-700 nanometers (e.g., 20nm, 30nm, 50 nm, 100 nm, 200 nm, 300nm, 400nm, 500nm, 600nm, or 700nm). In some embodiments, the pore sizes are 200 nm or about 200 nm.
[0083] By way of example, blood, plasma, or the organ perfusion fluid is run through an extracorporeal circulation circuit that uses a hollow fiber cartridge with the membranes of said hollow fibers having sufficient permeability for the subcellular nanoparticles found in the blood, plasma or the organ perfusion fluid to be removed through the membrane of the hollow fibers and into an area outside of the fibers containing a substrate that is bound to a single or plurality of agents (e.g. lectins) capable of adhering to said viral particles or fragments thereof, subcellular nanoparticles or extracellular vesicles, (e.g., exosomes) in a manner such that said viral particles, subcellular nanoparticles extracellular vesicles (e.g., exosomes) are attached to said agent and do not substantially re-enter the hollowfibers. Within the knowledge of one skilled in the art are available numerous types of hollow fiber systems. Selection of said hollow fiber system is dependent on the desired blood, plasma or organ perfusion fluid volume and rate of passage of said blood, plasma or organ perfusion fluid volume through the hollow fiber system.
[0084] Regardless of the hollow fiber system used, the desirable approach is that said hollow fiber filters are required to allow passage of blood cells through the interior of said hollow fiber and allow diffusion of subcellular nanoparticles to the exterior. In order to allow such diffusion, the pores on the membrane of the hollow fiber need to be of a diameter sufficient to allow extracellular vesicles (e.g., exosomes ranging from the size of 20 nanometers to 700 nanometers in diameter), depending on the particles of interest. In some embodiments, the pores on the membrane of the hollow fiber need to be of a diameter sufficient to allow particles ranging from the size of 50 nanometers to 300 nanometers in diameter. In some embodiments, the pores on the membrane of the hollow fiber need to be of a diameter sufficient to allow particles ranging from the size of 80 nanometers to 700 nanometers in diameter.
[0085] The substrate, support, or matrix to be used with devices described herein preferably allows sufficient permeation of flow so that non-cellular blood components that enter the space exterior to the hollow fiber are distributed throughout the substrate or matrix material, so that substantial contact is made between the viral particles and / or extracellular vesicles (e.g., exosomes or ectosomes) permeating the hollow fiber filter and the binding agent that is attached to the substrate, support, or matrix. Suitable substrates, supports, or matrices are known to one skilled in the art. Said substrates, supports, or matrices include silica gel, dextran, agarose, nylon polymers, polymers of acrylic acid, co-polymers of ethylene and maleic acid anhydride, aminopropylsilica, aminocelite, polyethylene or glass beads, zeolite, diatomaceous earth, silicate containing diatomaceous earth or other substrates or matrices known in the art. Examples of such are described in the following patents, each of which are incorporated by reference herein in their entirety: Lentz U.S. Pat. No. 4,708,713, Motomura U.S. Pat. No.5,667,684, Takashima et al U.S. Pat. No.5,041,079, and Porath and Janson U.S. Pat. No. 3,925,152. The agents that are attached to said substrate may be chosen based on known affinity to viral particles and / or extracellular vesicles (e.g., exosomes or ectosomes).
[0086] In some embodiments, the methods described herein are carried out by using an affinity cartridge using the device illustrated in FIG.1. In this device, blood , plasma, or organ perfusate is passed through the lumen of a hollow fiber ultrafiltration membrane that is in intimate contact, on the non-blood wetted side of the membrane, with immobilized lectins, which accept and immobilize viral particles, virus-like particles (VLPs), extracellular vesicles, such as exosomes or ectosomes, miRNAs, nucleic acids, such as DNA or RNA, circulating extracellular DNA (ceDNA), Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) and their components including DNA, histones, neutrophil granule proteins and / or oxidant enzymes, inflammatory or immunomodulatory glycoproteins, lipoglycans, or glycolipids, or fragments thereof. Thus, the device retains intact glycoproteins (which may be a part of a larger structure) bound by lectin while allowing other components to pass through the lumen.
[0087] An exemplary device, described in detail in FIGS. 1-3, includes multiple channels of hollow fiber ultrafiltration membrane that forms a filtration chamber. An inlet port and an effluent port are in communication with the filtration chamber. The ultrafiltration membrane is preferably an anisotropic membrane with the tight or retention side facing the bloodstream. The membrane is conveniently formed of any number of polymers known to the art, for example, polysulfone, polyethersulfone, polyamides, polyimides, cellulose acetate, or polyacrylamide. Preferably, the membrane has pores 200-700 nm in diameter, which will allow passage of subcellular nanoparticles but not platelets or most blood cells (red blood cells, 2,000 nm diameter; lymphocytes, 7,000-12,000 nm diameter; macrophages, 10,000-18,000 nm diameter). A diagram of an exemplary device is shown in FIG. 1. The device comprises a cartridge 10 comprising a blood-processing chamber 12 formed of suitable material such as polycarbonate 14. Around chamber 12 is an optional exterior chamber 16. A temperature controlling fluid can be circulated into chamber 16 through port 18 and out of port 20. The device includes an inlet port 32 for the blood and an outlet port 34 for the effluent. The device also provides one or more ports 48 and 50, for accessing the extra-channel space in the cartridge. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, chamber 12 contains a plurality of ultrafiltration membranes 22. These membranes preferably have a 0.3 mm inside diameter and 0.5 mm outside diameter. FIG. 3 is a cross sectional representation of a channel 22 and shows the anisotropic nature of the membrane. As shown in FIG.3, a hollow fiber membrane structure 40 is composed of a single polymeric material which is formed into a tubular sectioncomprising a relatively tight ultrafiltration membrane 42 and relatively porous exterior portion 44 in which may be immobilized lectins 46. During the operation of the device, a solution containing the lectins is loaded on to the device through port 48. The lectins are allowed to immobilize to the exterior 22 of the membrane in FIG. 2. Unbound lectins can be collected from port 50 by washing with saline or other solutions. The cartridge housing is made of polycarbonate and the fibers are held in place with polyurethane potting material. The lectins are found in the extra-lumen (or extra-capillary or extra-channel) covalently bound to a solid material 10-200 microns (or wider) in diameter. The substrate material is made of a porous silicon dioxide material (SiO2), preferably diatomaceous earth. Approximately 35-45 grams of lectin bound substrate is loaded into the extra-lumen space around the fibers through the polycarbonate side ports of the cartridge. During operation, blood runs along the length of the fibers and the plasma exits the pores and comes into contact with the lectin that is bound to the solid substrate.
[0088] For binding of lectins to the ultrafiltration membrane, the polymers of the ultrafiltration membrane are first activated (e.g., made susceptible for combining chemically with proteins) by using processes known in the art. Any number of different polymers and copolymers can be used. To obtain a reactive polyacrylic acid polymer, for example, carbodiimides can be used (Valuev et al., 1998, Biomaterials, 19:41-3). Once the polymer has been activated, the lectins can be attached directly or via a linker to form in either case an affinity matrix. Suitable linkers include, but are not limited to, avidin, strepavidin, biotin, protein A, or protein G. The lectins may also be directly bound to the polymer of the ultrafiltration membrane using coupling agents such as bifunctional reagents, or may be indirectly bound. In some embodiments, GNA covalently coupled to agarose can be used to form an affinity matrix.
[0089] Accordingly, in some of the methods described herein a lectin affinity device is used and said device comprises a filtration chamber configured to receive blood, plasma or organ perfusion fluid; a lectin, optionally coupled to agarose, diatomaceous earth, or aminocelite disposed within said filtration chamber; and a porous hollow fiber membrane, wherein said membrane has pores of 200-700 nm in diameter; wherein the lectin is selected from the group consisting of: Galanthus nivalis agglutinin (GNA), Narcissus pseudonarcissus agglutinin (NPA), cyanovirin, and Concanavalin A, and mixtures thereof wherein the cartridgeis configured to remove viral particles, virus-like particles (VLPs), extracellular vesicles, such as exosomes or ectosomes, inflammatory or immunomodulatory glycoproteins, lipoglycans, or glycolipids, or fragments thereof from a sample (e.g., blood, plasma or organ perfusion fluid).
[0090] Processes that can be used to isolate lectins such as GNA are generally known in the art. For example, Van Damme et al. demonstrate isolating the lectin from Galanthus nivalis (snowdrop) bulbs by affinity purification with mannose or other sugars (Van Damme et al. FEBS Letters (1987) 215(1):140-144). Use of purified GNA for affinity purification purposes have been previously demonstrated, such as for isolating glycoproteins like immunoglobulins (Shibuya et al. Archives Biochem. Biophys. (1988) 267(2):676-680). Each of the references above are hereby expressly incorporated by reference in its entirety.

[0102] One skilled in the art will recognize that a biological sample can be taken from, but not limited to the following fluids: organ perfusion fluid or organ perfusate (which can be near normothermic or hypothermic), peripheral blood, plasma, serum, ascites, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), sputum, saliva, bone marrow, synovial fluid, aqueous humor, amniotic fluid, cerumen, breast milk, broncheoalveolar lavage fluid, semen (including prostatic fluid), Cowper's fluid or pre-ejaculatory fluid, female ejaculate, sweat, fecal matter, hair, tears, cyst fluid, pleural and peritoneal fluid, pericardial fluid, lymph, chyme, chyle, bile, interstitial fluid, menses, pus, sebum, vomit, vaginal secretions, mucosal secretion, nasal fluid (e.g., a nasal swab isolate) stool water, urine, pancreatic juice, lavage fluids from sinus cavities, bronchopulmonary aspirates or other lavage fluids. A biological sample may also include the blastocyst cavity, umbilical cord blood, or maternal circulation that may be of fetal or maternal origin. The biological sample may also be a tissue sample or biopsy or a cell population (e.g., a sample from a cell culture, such as a CAR T cell culture, pancreatic islet cell population, or stem cell population). Preparation of the Device for Hemopurification
[0103] The extracorporeal circuit is to be connected;
[0104] The extracorporeal circuit is primed and rinsed with a minimum of two liters of priming solution;
[0105] An anticoagulant such as heparin will be added per liter of priming solution if needed to prevent clotting of the blood circuit;
[0106] The initial flow rate for priming will be 200-250 mL / min and up to 400-500 ml / min for several minutes, while using a priming solution not blood, to increase the shear forces inside the fibers to encourage the dislodgement of microbubbles. During this procedure, all bubbles are removed from the tubing and the cartridge by gentle tapping. Therapy
[0107] For use on a subject with established vascular access, the subject will be connected to the dialysis machine, which pumps blood from the subject through the cartridge and returns the purified blood to the subject. Alternatively, an organ will be connected to a pump which will pump perfusate solution with or without red blood cells through the organ. Alternatively, an organ perfusate will be connected to a pump which will pump perfusate solution through the cartridge. Blood flow rates are typically maintained at up to 200 ml / min. In some embodiments, the flow rate of the blood or organ perfusate is 18 ml / min. In some embodiments, the flow rate of the blood or organ perfusate is 19 ml / min. Heparin injections are most often used to prevent blood clotting when the procedure is performed on a human. Typical treatment times are up to 4 hours. Longer times may be used to increase the effectiveness of the treatment. At the end of the treatment, the blood in the tubing and cartridge is washed back into the subject in the case of a treatment done on a human. The machine is then disconnected from the subject or the organ and the contaminated cartridge and blood tubing properly disposed.
[0108] During the therapy on person with the device, testing will be performed to measure the activated clotting times (ACT) for monitoring anticoagulation. Results
[0109] Pre-and post-treatment samples from a subject or an organ that will receive the therapy above will have a significantly reduced pathogens, viral particles, virus-like particles (VLPs), extracellular vesicles, such as exosomes or ectosomes, miRNAs, a biomarker or mediator of tissue damage, nucleic acids, such as DNA or RNA, circulating extracellular DNA (ceDNA), extracellular vesicle associated DNA, Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs)and their components including DNA, histones, neutrophil granule proteins and / or oxidant enzymes, inflammatory or immunomodulatory glycoproteins, lipoglycans, or glycolipids, or fragments thereof in the blood post-therapy. When an organ, an organ perfusate, cell, or tissue transplantation procedure is accompanied by the therapy above, the organ, cell, or tissue viability, engraftment, and / or survival of the transplant and / or recipient is increased or improved as compared to the organ, cell, or tissue viability, engraftment, and / or survival of the transplant or recipient after transplantation in the absence of the therapy.
[0110] Samples collected from the subject at various intervals after therapy with a lectin affinity hemofiltration device will show reduced levels of pathogens, viral particles, virus-like particles (VLPs), extracellular vesicles, such as exosomes or ectosomes, inflammatory or immunomodulatory glycoproteins, lipoglycans, or glycolipids, or fragments thereof after treatment with the device vs. pre-treatment. EXAMPLES
[0111] Some aspects of the embodiments discussed above are disclosed in further detail in the following examples, which are not in any way intended to limit the scope of the present disclosure. Those in the art will appreciate that many other embodiments also fall within the scope of the invention, as it is described herein above and in the claims. Example 1-Preparation of GNA Covalently Coupled to Agarose Using Cyanogen Bromide.
[0112] Cyanogen bromide (CNBr) activated agarose was used for direct coupling essentially according to Cuatrecasas, et al (Cuatracasas, Wilchek and Anfinsen. Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 61(2): 636-643, 1968). In brief, 1 ml of GNA at a concentration of 10 mg / ml in 0.1M NaHCO3 pH 9.5 is added to 1 ml CNBr activated agarose (Sigma, St. Louis, Mo.) and allowed to react overnight in the cold. Care must be taken to maintain alkaline pH to prevent the potential release of HCN gas. When the reaction is complete, unreacted materials are aspirated and the lectin coupled agarose washed extensively with sterile cold PBS. The lectin agarose affinity matrix is then stored cold until ready for use. Alternatively, GNA agarose is available commercially from Vector Labs (Burlingame, Calif.).Example 2 - Preparation of an Exosome Specific Antibody or lectin Covalently Coupled to Chromosorb (Diatomaceous Earth) Using Glutaraldehyde.
[0113] Preparation of aminated diatomaceous earth is accomplished using Ȗ- aminopropyl triethoxysilane (GAPS or APTES) (Sigma Chemical, St. Louis, Mo.) and Chromosorb 60 / 80 mesh. Although other grades of diatomaceous earth may be used, Chromosorb of this mesh size (200-300 microns in diameter) is often used to prevent small particulates from entering the sample through the largest available pore sizes found in hollow- fiber cartridges used for plasma separation (˜0.5 micron). Amino Chromosorb was prepared by suspension in an excess of 5% aqueous solution of GAPS in an overnight reaction. Aminated- Chromosorb was washed free of excess reagent with water and ethanol and dried overnight in a drying oven to yield an off white powder. One gram of the powder was then suspended in 5 ml 5% glutaraldehyde (Sigma) for 30 minutes. Excess glutaraldehyde was then removed by filtration and washing with water until no detectable aldehyde remained in the wash using Schiff's reagent (Sigma Chemical). The filter cake was then resuspended in 5 ml of Sigma borohydride coupling buffer containing 2-3 mg / ml of the antibody or lectin and the reaction allowed to proceed overnight at 4 degrees C. At the end of the reaction, excess antibody or lectin is washed off and the remaining aldehyde reacted with ethanolamine as described. After final washing in sterile PBS, the material was stored cold until ready for use.

[0120] This example describes methods of removal of miRNAs or fragments thereof from a kidney perfusate and can be used in addition to performing examples disclosed herein or individually.
[0121] For this example, discarded kidneys were perfused using normothermic ex vivo machine perfusion. Following this, 250 milliliters of kidney perfusate was put into a circuit (FIG.11 or FIG. 12) containing a full-scale Hemopurifier®, filled with 40 grams of GNA affinity resin. The perfusate was circulated at 200 milliliters per minute for a total of 24 total volume passes. RNA was then isolated using a Plasma / Serum RNA purification Mini Kit (Norgen Biotek Corp, Thorold, Canada) following the manufacturers protocol. In brief, 200 microliters of kidney perfusate samples were loaded onto spin columns with lysis buffer and ethanol. Samples were vortexed and mixed well. After vortexing, 650 μl of mixture was loaded onto a spin column and centrifuged at 400 x g to 13,000 x g based on the protocol. Retained RNA was washed to remove impurities. RNA was eluted with 20 μl of elution buffer. RNA was quantified using the Nanodrop One Spectrophotometer. At least 100 nanograms of total RNA from each sample was provided to either the Proof of Principle (PoP) Laboratory at NanoString (NanoString, Seattle, WA) or NanoString Services Laboratory at Canopy Biosciences (Canopy Biosciences, Hayward, CA). The samples were prepared for nCounter miRNA expression profiling according to the manufacturer’s protocol. Before data normalization, Background Thresholding was performed. The threshold count value was set to 25 reads. Data normalization was performed using the geometric mean of the positive controls for code count normalization. Sample input amounts were normalized to the geometric mean of the positive ligation controls. The data was loaded into the R statistical environment (v4.3.1). Statistical analysis of experimental data was performed using R programing language (v4.3.2) and the integrated development environment RStudio. R and RStudio were used for data preprocessing, exploratory data analysis, hypothesis testing, and data visualization. A list of miRNAs depleted using devices as depicted in FIG.11 or FIG.12 are shown in Tables 1-4. Table 1 shows a list of miRNAs depleted using a normal flow device as depicted in FIG. 11. Table 2 shows a list of miRNAs depleted using a normal flow device as depicted in FIG.11 with a p <0.1. Table 3 shows a list of miRNAs depleted using a side port flow device asdepicted in FIG.11.

[0122] To further confirm the depletion of miRNAs using the devices disclosed herein, a quantitative measurement of 4 miRNAs that were depleted in the kidney perfusates was performed using qPCR. For this method, a cel-miR-39 miRNA marker was spiked into 200μl of kidney perfusates during total RNA isolation using the Plasma / Serum RNA purification Mini Kit (Norgen Biotek Corp, Thorold, Canada).2μl of purified RNA was then reverse transcribed using the Taqman Advanced cDNA Synthesis Kit (Thermofisher) to produce cDNA templates. The miRNA targets of interest were amplified by qPCR on a Quant 3 Studio instrument by mixing one 1ul of cDNA template in a 20μl reaction with the Taqman Fast Advanced Master Mix (Thermofisher) and Taqman Advanced miRNA primers. The reaction conditions included an initial denaturation at 95°C for 2min, and then 40 cycles of denaturing at 95°C for 3s and annealing / extension at 60°C for 30s with target amplification data collected on the Quant 3 Studio instrument. The delta C(T) method was used to normalize the relative level of each miRNA target to the level of the cel-miR-39 spike-in used in each sample. Since the quantity of cel-miR-39 miRNA remained constant in each sample, the relative changes in the abundance of other miRNA targets were attributed to a reduction by treatments using the devices as depicted in FIGS.11-12. As shown in FIG.13, all 4 miRNAs (hsa-miR-let7a-5p, hsa-miR-142-3p, hsa-miR-29b-3p, and hsa-miR-99a-5p) showed a depletion after treatment. The average depletion observed for each miRNA target evaluated inthese treatments was as follows: hsa-let-7a-5p (68±9%), hsa-miR-142-3p (70±37%), hsa-miR- 29b-3p (40±18%), and / or hsa-miR-99a-5p (57±29%). Examples 7: Removal of chemokines, cytokines and proteins from kidney perfusate
[0123] This example describes methods of removal of chemokines, cytokines and proteins from a kidney perfusate and can be used in addition to performing examples disclosed herein or individually.
[0124] For this example, discarded kidneys were perfused using normothermic ex vivo machine perfusion. Then 250 milliliters of kidney perfusate was put into a circuit (FIG.11 or FIG.12) containing a full-scale Hemopurifier®, filled with 40 grams of GNA affinity resin. The perfusate was circulated at 200 milliliters per minute for a total of 24 total volume passes. 500 microliters of pre- and post-treated kidney perfusate were then submitted for analysis. Immune protein levels were quantified using bead panels; Human Cytokine / Chemokine 96- Plex Discovery Assay, Human Complement 13-Plex Discovery Assay, and Human Supplemental Biomarker 10-Plex Discovery Assay Chemokine (Eve Technologies, Calgary, Canada) according to the manufacturer’s protocol. The data was loaded into the R statistical environment (v4.3.1). Statistical analysis of experimental data was performed using R programing language (v4.3.2) and the integrated development environment RStudio. R and RStudio were used for data preprocessing, exploratory data analysis, hypothesis testing, and data visualization. A list of chemokines, cytokines and proteins depleted using devices as depicted in FIG.11 or FIG.12 are shown in Tables 5-8. Table 5 shows a list of chemokines, cytokines and proteins depleted using a normal flow device as depicted in FIG. 11. Table 6 shows a list of chemokines, cytokines and proteins depleted using a normal flow device as depicted in FIG.11 with a p <0.1. Table 7 shows a list of chemokines and cytokines depleted using a side port flow device as depicted in FIG. 11. Table 8 shows a list of chemokines, cytokines and proteins depleted using a side port flow device as depicted in FIG. 11 with p <0.1.Table 5.

[0125] This example describes methods for analysis of DNA from a kidney perfusate and can be used in addition to performing examples disclosed herein or individually.
[0126] To analyze the DNA content of the kidney perfusates after treatment with the exemplary devices, quantitative measurement of nucleic DNA marker (RNAseP) and mitochondrial DNA marker (7s) in the kidney perfusates was performed using qPCR. For this method, DNA was purified from the control and kidney perfusate solutions passed for 24 times through the device as depicted in FIG. 10 using the QIAamp DNA Blood mini kit (Qiagen) according to the instructions provided by the manufacturer. In brief, 200ul of kidney perfusate solution or control was lysed, heated at 56°C for 10min, loaded onto a spin column, washed, and then and eluted into 50ul of the kit’s AE elution buffer. DNA purity and concentrations were assessed using the Nanodrop A260. The DNA isolated from the control and kidney perfusate solutions was analyzed using the Quant Studio 3 instrument to evaluate differences in the levels of several markers of interest between perfusates and after HP treatments. A multiplex assay was used to simultaneously amplify both nucleic and mitochondrial DNA in each sample with the Taqman Fast Advanced Master Mix (Thermofisher). Nucleic DNA was amplified using the RNAseP Taqman primers (Thermofisher) while mitochondrial DNA wasamplified with the Taqman human 7s primers (Thermofisher). qPCR was conducted in a 20μl total volume containing 2ul of the purified perfusate DNA as a template and the following conditions: initial denaturation at 95°C for 2min, and then 40 cycles of denaturing at 95°C for 3s and annealing / extension at 60°C for 30s. The delta C(T) method was used to quantify relative changes in the content of nucleic...
