Purpose: To study the efficacy and incidence of treatment-related side effects of mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) therapy in patients with noninfectious inflammatory eye diseases. Methods: Retrospective cohort study of 27 ...
TGF-β activity in acid bone lysate adsorbs to titanium surface
(Blackwell, 2019)
Objectives: Osteoblasts lay down new bone on implant surfaces. The underlying cellular mechanism and the spatio-temporal mode of action, however, remain unclear. It can be proposed that growth factors released upon ...

Analysis of Different Staining Techniques for C4d Detection in Renal Allograft Biopsies
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2009)
Capillary C4d deposition has been recognized as a marker of antibody-mediated rejection (AMR). Although the detection of capillary C4d by means of immunofluorescence (IF) in cryostat sections is well established, frozen ...
Glucocorticoid resistance in dialysis patients may impair the kidney allograft outcome
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2008)
This study examines in vitro steroid sensitivity in chronic renal failure ( CRF) patients and its influence on the allograft outcome. We determined the inhibitory effect of dexamethasone ( DEX) on concanavalin A ( ...
Detection of the Tim-3 ligand, galectin-9, inside the allograft during a rejection episode
