Outcomes after lung transplantation remain significantly worse than those after transplantation of other solid organs. Ischemia reperfusion injury is the leading cause for early morbidity and mortality after lung transplantation and has also been shown to be a risk factor for chronic lung rejection demonstrating its long-term effect on allografts. In this study, we examined the mechanism of ischemia reperfusion injury and abrogation of lung allograft acceptance after lung transplantation.
