Abstract
Although most published studies involving preclinical mouse models of cardiac allograft rejection tend to center on the issues of acute rejection and tolerance induction, arguably the more pressing need in the field of clinical transplantation is better understanding of chronic allograft injury. That is, chronic graft injury is a far greater current clinical problem than is early graft loss due to acute rejection. In heart transplantation, cardiac allograft vasculopathy (CAV) is a form of pronounced coronary artery disease that occurs over time after transplant1 and remains the major source of transplant loss and recipient mortality.
