Prevention of early loss of transplanted islets in the liver of mice by adenosine.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Ischemia-reperfusion syndrome has been recognized as an important pathogenic factor in renal transplantation, not only in the development of delayed graft function but also in the development of acute and chronic rejection. Hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1 activates transcription of several genes implicated ...
