Eosinophilic fasciitis: demographics, disease pattern and response to treatment: report of 12 cases and review of the literature [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Eosinophilic fasciitis is a rare scleroderma-like illness. The clinical spectrum of the disease has evolved since its initial description. METHODS: We identified all patients diagnosed with eosinophilic fasciitis over the past 10 years at our

Apoptotic cell-based therapies against transplant rejection: role of recipient’s dendritic cells [PDF]
One of the ultimate goals in transplantation is to develop novel therapeutic methods for induction of donor-specific tolerance to reduce the side effects caused by the generalized immunosuppression associated to the currently used pharmacologic regimens.

T Cell Calcium Flux And Clonal Proliferation Report On Antigen-Specific Myeloid Cell Encounters [PDF]
Despite its clinical success, the mechanism underlying extracorporeal photopheresis (ECP) is not well understood, however, the plate-passage (PP) step appears integral to generating activated monocytes.

Platelet Induction Of Monocyte To Dendritic Cell Differentiation [PDF]
We hypothesized that activated platelets induce monocyte-to-dendritic cell (DC) differentiation. The aims of this study were to: (1) determine the role that platelets play, if any, in the signaling of monocyte to DC differentiation; (2) determine the ...
