Adenosine A(2A) Agonist Improves Lung Function During Ex-vivo Lung Perfusion

BACKGROUND: Ex-vivo lung perfusion (EVLP) is a novel technique to assess, and potentially repair marginal lungs that may otherwise be rejected for transplantation. Adenosine has been shown to protect against lung ischemia-reperfusion injury through its A(2A) receptor. We hypothesized that combining...
