Enhancement of obliterative airway disease in rat tracheal allografts infected with recombinant rat cytomegalovirus.
J Heart Lung Transplant. 1998; (5): 439-51
Cytomegalovirus infection has been identified as a significant risk factor for the development of obliterative bronchiolitis in human lung transplant recipients. This study was designed to assess the influence of rat cytomegalovirus (RCMV) on the pathogenesis and development of obliterative bronchiolitis in an experimental model of obliterative airway disease, which occurs after allogenic heterotopic tracheal transplantation in rodents.
