Abstract
Glucose-6-phosphatase was tested histochemically as a gluconeogenesis marker of ischemia-reperfusion injury of proximal tubular cells in hum an renal transplants. Histochemical enzyme activity, histology and tra nsplantation conditions (preservation solution, cold and warm ischemia time, donor age), were compared to renal transplant evolution. Neithe r histology nor transplantation conditions were correlated with renal transplant evolution. Only glucose-6-phosphatase activity was signific antly correlated with transplant evolution and could be used as a more sensitive marker than histology for the detection of ischemia-reperfu sion injury of proximal tubules.
