Heparanase inhibition preserves the endothelial glycocalyx in lung grafts and improves lung preservation and transplant outcomes

Abstract The endothelial glycocalyx (eGC) is considered a key regulator of several mechanisms that prevent vascular injury and disease. Degradation of this macromolecular layer may be associated with post-transplant graft dysfunction. In this study, we aimed to demonstrate the benefits of eGC protec...
