In vivo bioluminescence imaging of transplanted islets and early detection of graft rejection.

abstract：BACKGROUND:It is unclear whether ischemic preconditioning (IPC) of solid organs induces remote IPC (RIPC) in donors after brain death (DBD). METHODS:Outcomes in kidney recipients from 163 DBD in two randomized trials of liver IPC (5 min=62 and 10 min=101) were obtained retrospectively from the Scientific Registry of T...
