This study shows that BMP9 therapy reduces primary graft dysfunction after lung transplantation by improving endothelial function and reducing inflammation.

This study shows that MerTK-dependent efferocytosis by monocytic-MDSCs reduces post-lung transplant ischemia-reperfusion injury.

This study shows that common TMEM173 alleles HAQ and AQ reduce inflammation in SAVI mice by preventing CD4 T cell depletion and restoring T-regs.

This study uses machine learning to identify cytokines predictive of primary graft dysfunction in lung transplantation, finding BAL fluid at 2h post-transplant as the strongest predictor.
