Résumé
Cryopreserved human cardiac valve allografts could suffer lethal damages if the temperature is elevated during cryostorage. This work describes the functional and morphological alterations suffered by human cardiac valve allografts after a gradual increment of the cryostorage temperature from -147 to -47°C due to a technical failure. Three experimental groups of human pulmonary and aortic allografts were compared: fresh, cryopreserved (-147 °C) and cryopreserved with temperature changes from -147 up to -47°C and back to -147°C. Fibroblast functionality was studied to asses the degree of valvular damages. Collagen network was also analyzed with bright light field and polarized microscopy; an immunohistochemistry for procollagen I was performed and the MTT colorimetric assay was used to evaluate fibroblast mitochondrial enzymatic activity. Porcine heart grafts valves were used to set the MTT colorimetric assay. With bright light field microscopy, disorganized collagen network was seen together with interstitial edema in cryopreserved groups. Polarized microscopy showed that fresh allografts had abundant collagen type I and III, cryopreserved group had less amount of collagen type I and in allografts that suffered cryopreservation temperature elevation collagen type I synthesis could not been demonstrated. Procollagen I was present in fibroblast cytoplasm of fresh group, but it was diminished in cryopreserved group and was absent in the group that suffered temperature elevation. Temperature changes during the cryopreservation period of human cardiac valve allografts induced fibroblast activity reduction. When the cryopreservation temperature is elevated during cryostorage, fibroblasts lost their functionality and the allografts may be not suitable for transplant.
