Transplant arteriosclerosis is the main cause of long-term failure after cardiac transplantation. Vascular rejection is thought to be due to intimal proliferation occurring in response to arterial wall immune-mediated injury. A low molecular weight fucan (LMWF) compound, a sulfated polysaccharide, has been demonstrated to increase plasma levels of stromal cell-derived factor 1 (SDF-1) and consequently to mobilize bone marrow-derived vascular progenitor cells (BMVPC). The aim of this study was to evaluate the capacity of LMWF to prevent coronary intimal proliferation in a rat cardiac allograft model.
