In a rat model of bypass DuraGraft ameliorates endothelial dysfunction of arterial grafts
Coronary artery bypass surgery can result in endothelial dysfunction due to ischemia/reperfusion (IR) injury. Previous studies have demonstrated that DuraGraft helps maintain endothelial integrity of saphenous vein grafts during ischemic conditions.
