Bronchiolitis obliterans is the major factor limiting long-term success of lung transplantation. Gene polymorphisms of surfactant proteins, key players in lung innate immunity, have been associated with various lung diseases. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between donor lung SP-D gene polymorphisms with recipient post transplant bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome and survival.

Abstract
Bronchiolitis obliterans is the major factor limiting long-term success of lung transplantation. Gene polymorphisms of surfactant proteins, key players in lung innate immunity, have been associated with various lung diseases. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between donor lung SP-D gene polymorphisms with recipient post transplant bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome and survival.File in questo prodotto:
