Embodiment 1
[0143] Example 1 CO Inhibition of arteriosclerosis, formation of intimal hyperplasia and proliferation of SMC
[0144] Animals Male (250-350g) Brown Norway rats (Brown Norway rats) (RT1 n ) for aortic graft donors, male (250-350g) Lewis rats (RT1 1 ) are used as receptors. Dawley (400-450 g) rats were used in the balloon injury model. Mature male C57BL / 6, C57 / S 129, p21 - / - and p53 - / - Nude mice were purchased from Jackson Laboratory (Bar Harbor, ME). mkk3 (- / -) Nude mice were generated as described by Lu et al. (EMBO. 18:1845-1857 (1999)). inos - / - and enos - / - Mice were housed at the University of Pittsburgh.
[0145] Aortic Graft Model Aortic grafting was performed as described by Shimizu et al. (Nat Med. 7:738-741 (2001)). Briefly, a 3-4 cm descending aorta was harvested from the donor and implanted between the recipient's renal artery and the aortic bifurcation. Both ends of the native abdominal aorta were sutured.

Embodiment 2
[0203] Example 2. Protocol for handling patients during angioplasty and transplant procedures
[0204] The following examples show protocols for patient management during angioplasty and for the use of carbon monoxide therapy to treat donors, organs and / or recipients during transplant surgery. Any one or several of the following methods may be used in transplant surgery.
[0205] Angioplasty
[0206] CO may be administered systemically or locally to the patient prior to, during and / or after the angioplasty procedure on the patient. The dose administered can be from 10 ppm to 1000 ppm (eg, about 100 ppm to about 800 ppm, about 150 ppm to about 600 ppm (eg, about 150 ppm), or about 200 ppm to about 500 ppm (eg, about 250 ppm to about 500 ppm)). For example, CO can be administered to the patient intermittently or continuously, starting 0-20 days before the procedure, for example, starting at least about 30 minutes before the procedure, for example, about 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, or 10 ...
