Endothelial cell protection against ischemia/reperfusion injury by lecithinized superoxide dismutase.
BACKGROUND: Organs used for transplantation may experience long periods of cold ischemic preservation and consequently oxygen free radical-mediated damage following reperfusion. Lecithinized superoxide dismutase (lec-SOD) is a novel free radical scavenger that has been shown to bind with high affini...
