A clinical trial combining donor bone marrow infusion and heart transplantation: intermediate-term results. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Donor chimerism (the presence of donor cells of bone marrow origin) is present for years after transplantation in recipients of solid organs. In lung recipients, chimerism is associated with a lower incidence of chronic rejection.

Prednisolone as preservation additive prevents from ischemia reperfusion injury in a rat model of orthotopic lung transplantation [PDF]
The lung is, more than other solid organs, susceptible for ischemia reperfusion injury after orthotopic transplantation. Corticosteroids are known to potently suppress pro-inflammatory processes when given in the post-operative setting or during ...

Pediatric lung transplantation: The years 1985 to 1992 and the clinical trial of FK 506 [PDF]
The application of lung transplantation to the pediatric population was a natural extension of the success realized in our adult transplantation program, which began in 1982. Twenty pediatric patients (age range 3 to 18 years) have had heart-lung (n = 11)

Donor-Derived Cell-Free DNA for Acute Rejection Monitoring in Heart and Lung Transplantation
Acute allograft rejection is a common cause of morbidity and mortality in heart and lung transplantation. Unfortunately, the current monitoring gold standard—biopsy plus histopathology—has several limitations. Plasma donor-derived cell-free DNA (dd-cfDNA)

Not All Antibodies Are Created Equal: Factors That Influence Antibody Mediated Rejection. [PDF]
Consistent with Dr. Paul Terasaki's "humoral theory of rejection" numerous studies have shown that HLA antibodies can cause acute and chronic antibody mediated rejection (AMR) and decreased graft survival. New evidence also supports a role for antibodies
