Abstract EN
Oxidative stress is one of the key mechanisms affecting the outcome throughout the course of organ transplantation.
It is widely believed that the redox balance is dysregulated during ischemia and reperfusion (I/R) and causes subsequent oxidative injury, resulting from the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS).
Moreover, in order to alleviate organ shortage, increasing number of grafts is retrieved from fatty, older, and even non-heart-beating donors that are particularly vulnerable to the accumulation of ROS.
To improve the viability of grafts and reduce the risk of posttransplant dysfunction, a large number of studies have been done focusing on the antioxidant treatments for the purpose of maintaining the redox balance and thereby protecting the grafts.
This review provides an overview of these emerging antioxidant treatments, targeting donor, graft preservation, and recipient as well.
