Abstract 4146828: Downregulation of ADAR1 Attenuates Hypothermic Cardioprotection in Aged Donor Hearts During Transplantation

Circulation

Aged donor hearts, despite their availability, exhibit increased primary graft dysfunction and decreased survival rates post-transplantation. Addressing this critical barrier could potentially improve post-transplant outcomes and make older donor hearts a viable option.
