Lung ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) is a common complication after lung transplantation, and immune cells have been implicated in modulating outcomes. We hypothesized that a newly described subset of αβ T-cell receptor positive cells; that is, CD4 - CD8 - (double negative [DN]) T cells, are found in lungs and can protect against lung IRI.
