Treosulfan–fludarabine conditioning in infants with severe combined immunodeficiencies: Extended study of the UK paediatric treosulfan study

British Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
Summary Allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is a curative therapy for severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID). Conditioning improves donor engraftment and freedom from immunoglobulin replacement (IgR) but increases the risks of acute and late toxicity. Treosulfan, a reduced toxicity alkylating agent, has emerged as an alternative

Inhibition of human parainfluenza virus type 3 infection by novel small molecules [PDF]

Antiviral Research, 2008
Human parainfluenza virus type 3 (HPIV3) is an important respiratory tract pathogen of infants and children. There are no vaccines or antivirals currently approved for prevention or treatment of HPIV3 infection. Towards developing an antiviral therapy to combat HPIV3 infection, we have established a green fluorescent protein (GFP)-tagged HPIV3 infected-
