Bollyky,Kemly Philip,Dewei Ren,Rajarajan Amirthalingam Thandavarayan,Brian A. Bruckner,Yang Xia,Michael R. Blackburn,Harry Karmouty-Quintana +18 more
TL;DR: Fibrotic deposition and PH are inhibited by the FDA-approved drug hymecromone, suggesting hyaluronan synthesis inhibition as a potential therapy for CPFE and highlighting a novel mechanism through HAS3-positive macrophages.
Journal ArticleDOI
Retransplantation Outcomes at a Large Lung Transplantation Program.
Dewei Ren,T. Kaleekal,Edward A. Graviss,Duc T. Nguyen,Neeraj Sinha,Amad Goodarzi,Isioma Agboli,Erik E. Suarez,Matthias Loebe,Scott Scheinin,Brian A. Bruckner +10 more
TL;DR: The findings suggested that lung ReTX recipients have poor long-term survival outcomes and should only be offered to carefully selected patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enhancing Extracellular Adenosine Levels Restores Barrier Function in Acute Lung Injury Through Expression of Focal Adhesion Proteins.
Wei Wang,Ning Yuan Chen,Dewei Ren,Jonathan Davies,Kemly Philip,Holger K. Eltzschig,Michael R. Blackburn,Bindu Akkanti,Harry Karmouty-Quintana,Tingting Weng +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of dipyridamolemole and adenosine signaling in preventing or treating acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) was evaluated in mice with and without ENT1/ENT2 deficiency.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lung procurement from a donor with a long-term left ventricular assist device.
TL;DR: Although the small number of patients with LVADs limits the ability to rigorously study the double defibrillation approach to refractory VF, it should certainly be attempted if other means fail.
