View full abstract and other project information on NIH RePORTER Go To NIH RePORTER Excerpt: Ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI) is a pathological process affecting solid organ allografts and occurs when a transplanted organ subjected to prolonged disruption of blood flow undergoes tissue damage following surgical implantation. IRI frequently occurs among deceased donors and predisposes to chronic antibody- mediated rejection (CABMR), decreased graft survival, and worsened patient outcomes. This condition has no effective medical treatments and is especially relevant to veteran transplant... |
