Abstract
This study demonstrated that the administration of the PPARa ligand, WY14643, ameliorates acute lung allograft rejection in rats. Treatment with WY14643 reduced histopathologic scores, prolonged graft survival, and up-regulated the expression of anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-4, IL-10, and TGFβ mRNA compared with the control.
