Objective: Kidney transplantation is an important treatment option in end stage renal failure. Tissue death may be an important problem when a kidney is removed from a cadaver and transported to a donor a long distance away. The purpose of this study is to determine the critical time point for apoptotic cell death in a renal ischemia/reperfusion model and determine the effects of N-acetylcystein on apoptosis induced by ischemia injury.
