Complement-mediated pulmonary xenograft injury: studies in swine-to-primate orthotopic single lung transplant models.

abstract：:Organ shortage in liver transplantation has led the transplant community to expand the donor organ pool and reduce waiting list mortality by using so-called marginal donor or extended criteria donor (ECD) livers. The exact impact of these criteria on graft function and recipient survival are still under investigation....
