Endothelial colony-forming cells reduced the lung injury induced by cardiopulmonary bypass in rats

Abstract Background Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) results in severe lung injury via inflammation and endothelial injury. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of endothelial colony-forming cells (ECFCs) on lung injury in rats subjected to CPB. Methods Thirty-two rats were randomized into t...
