Long-term outcomes of keratolimbal allograft for total limbal stem cell deficiency using combined immunosuppressive agents and correction of ocular surface deficits.

30 Oct 2009 OBJECTIVE: To determine the long-term outcomes of keratolimbal allograft (KLAL). METHODS: Scores of such risks as infrequent blinking, blink-related microtrauma, conjunctival inflammation, elevated intraocular pressure, dry eye, symblepharon, ... Read more...

Proliferation deficits and gene expression dysregulation in Down's syndrome (Ts1Cje) neural progenitor cells cultured from neurospheres.

30 Oct 2009 Down's syndrome neurophenotypes are characterized by mental retardation and a decreased brain volume. To identify whether deficits in proliferation could be responsible for this phenotype, neural progenitor cells were isolated from the developing ... Read more...

Endothelial progenitor cells do not contribute to tumor endothelium in primary and metastatic tumors.

13 Oct 2009 Despite extensive research, the contribution of bone-marrow-derived endothelial progenitor cells (BM-EPC) to tumor angiogenesis remains controversial. In previous publications, the extent of incorporation of BM-EPCs into the endothelial cell (EC) ... Read more...
