Ex Vivo Lung Perfusion with β-Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide (NAD<sup>+</sup>) Improves Ischemic Lung Function
Ischemia-reperfusion injury compromises short- and long-term outcomes after lung transplantation. The scarce existing data on NAD<sup>+</sup> suggest effects on hypoxia-induced vasoconstriction, on reactive oxygen species and on tampering inflammation. We exposed rat lungs to 14 h of col...
