pubmed:abstractText |
Bronchiolitis obliterans (BO) is a severe complication limiting long-term survival after lung transplantation. To date, no cure exists for BO, and the mechanisms leading to BO are not well understood. Endothelin-1 (ET-1) is a potent mitogenic and profibrotic peptide produced by pulmonary vascular endothelial cells that play a role in the pathophysiology of lung allograft dysfunction. Whether ET-1 could predict BO syndrome (BOS) development is unknown.
