Attenuation of Transplant Arteriosclerosis With Clopidogrel Is Associated With a Reduction of Infiltrating Dendritic Cells and Macrophages in Murine Aortic Allografts

Abstract

This report shows that application of clopidogrel after transplantation results in a reduction in adhesion molecule expression within the blood and transplant tissue and is associated with reduced transendothelial migration of dendritic cells and macrophages within the vascular wall.
