Abstract
We demonstrated that Sevo preconditioning has protective effects on lung transplants in both, PGD and AR. The observed amelioration may be attributed to suppressed inflammatory cytokines during PGD and the induction of alternatively activated macrophages during AR. These promising data could set the base for using Sevo preconditioning in donor lungs for a human trial.
