The role of extracellular vesicles in chronic lung allograft dysfunction and response to extracorporeal photopheresis. [PDF]
Current research highlights the growing role of extracellular vesicles (EV) in mechanisms of lung allograft dysfunction. In particular, EVs are involved in antigen presentation, where they are released from lung allografts and express tissue associated ...

Potential novel biomarkers for chronic lung allograft dysfunction and azithromycin responsive allograft dysfunction [PDF]
AbstractChronic Lung Allograft Dysfunction (CLAD), manifesting as Bronchiolitis Obliterans Syndrome (BOS) or Restrictive Allograft Syndrome (RAS), is the main reason for adverse long-term outcome after Lung Transplantation (LTX). Until now, no specific biomarkers exist to differentiate between CLAD phenotypes.

Influence of mycophenolate mofetil dosage and plasma levels on the occurrence of chronic lung allograft dysfunction in lung transplants: a retrospective cohort analysis [PDF]
INTRODUCTION: Development of chronic lung allograft dysfunction is a limiting factor for post-lung transplant survival. We evaluated whether the dose of the immunosuppressant mycophenolate mofetil or plasma concentrations of the active metabolite ...

Outcomes Following ATG Therapy for Chronic Lung Allograft Dysfunction
Background. Chronic lung allograft dysfunction (CLAD) is the major factor limiting survival post lung transplantation (LTx) with limited effective therapeutic options. We report our 12-y experience of antithymocyte globulin (ATG) as second-line CLAD therapy. Methods.

Plasma Cell-free DNA Associated With Risk of Mortality and Chronic Lung Allograft Dysfunction Among Lung Transplant Recipients With <i>Aspergillus</i>. [PDF]
Background. Aspergillus species is a common pathogen in lung transplant patients. However, existing clinical standards rely on a complex constellation of clinical, radiological, and microbiologic criteria with limited sensitivity to differentiate between
