Prevention of Chronic Rejection of Marginal Kidney Graft by Using a Hydrogen Gas-Containing Preservation Solution and Adequate Immunosuppression in a Miniature Pig Model

Hydrogen Gas: The Key to Successful Kidney Transplants?

Researchers in Japan have found that using a hydrogen gas-containing preservation solution can help prevent chronic rejection in marginal kidney grafts. This could lead to better outcomes for people receiving kidney transplants. The study used a miniature pig model and combined the hydrogen gas solution with immunosuppression medications.
