VEGF-B Overexpression Enhances Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury and the Innate Immune Response in Rat Heart Transplants

s S265 period of 42 days in both groups. Long term survival of the animals is currently under investigation. Conclusion: Delayed administration of anti-CD4 antibody 3 days after lung transplantation appears to preferentially suppress the CD4+ effector arm rather than CD4+ regulatory T cells. This finding may be advantageous for promoting donor-specific tolerance in lung transplantation.
