Normalization of circadian blood pressure profiles after renal transplantation.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Recent advances in the understanding of immunomodulatory properties of phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4) inhibitors recommend these drugs for immunosuppressive therapy after lung transplantation. The potency of three PDE4 inhibitors was tested using an established model of heterotopic tracheal transplantation in ra...

Conversely, expression of protective genes [including A20, A1, bcl-xl, and hemoxygenase-1 (HO-1)] in the endothelium has been associated with long-term graft survival. Overexpression of protective genes in cultured endothelial cells confe...
