Chronic rejection (CR) with graft vasculopathy is recognized as a major cause of graft loss over time. Sinomenine (SN) has anti-inflammatory, antirheumatic, and immunomodulatory effects. Previously, we demonstrated antimacrophage and anti-T cell effects of SN in acute rejection. In the current study, we investigated the effect of SN in a rat cardiac allograft model of CR.
