Expression of Claudin-4 in Lung Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury in Experimental Lung Transplantation
During lung transplantation (LTx), the warm (WIT) and cold ischemia time (CIT) predispose to ischemia-reperfusion injury (LIRI) and the primary graft dysfunction (PGD). LIRI induces edema by changes in tight junctions (TJs) of pulmonary epithelial and endothelial cells. Claudin-4 (CLDN4) is a compon...
