- ItemUse of FTY 720 and ICAM-1 antisense oligonucleotides for attenuating chronic renal damage secondary to ischemia-reperfusion injury(2005) Troncoso, P; Ortiz, AM; Dominguez, J; Kahan, BDIntroduction. Chronic allograft nephropathy is the main cause of graft loss. Although many factors are involved in its development, ischemia-reperfusion injury has received increasing attention as a risk determinant. In a previous study of syngeneic renal transplantation and ischemia, we demonstrated a protective effect of acute damage by FTY 720 and antisense oligonucleotides of ICAM-1 (Oligos). The purpose of the current study was to evaluate the impact of these agents on the development of chronic graft damage in the same model.
