Long-term heart transplant survival by targeting the ionotropic purinergic receptor P2X7

A Vergani, S Tezza, F D'Addio, C Fotino, K Liu… - Circulation, 2013 - Am Heart Assoc
Background—Heart transplantation is a lifesaving procedure for patients with end-stage
heart failure. Despite much effort and advances in the field, current immunosuppressive
regimens are still associated with poor long-term cardiac allograft outcomes, and with the
development of complications, including infections and malignancies, as well. The
development of a novel, short-term, and effective immunomodulatory protocol will thus be an
important achievement. The purine ATP, released during cell damage/activation, is sensed …
