Intravenous Transplantation of BMP2-Transduced Endothelial Progenitor Cells Attenuates Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Acute Lung Injury in Rats

Intravenous Transplantation of BMP2-Transduced Endothelial Progenitor Cells Attenuates Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Acute Lung Injury in Rats

Background/Aims: Acute lung injury (ALI) and its aggressive stage, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), are characterized by diffuse damage and increased permeability of the endothelial barrier, leading to alveolar infiltrates and interstitial edema. Enhancing endothelial integrity represents...
