Subretinal delivery of adeno-associated virus serotype 2 results in minimal immune responses that allow repeat vector administration in immunocompetent mice [PDF]
Background: Adeno-associated virus serotype 2 (AAV2) vectors show considerable promise for ocular gene transfer. However, one potential barrier to efficacious long-term therapy is the development of immune responses against the vector or transgene ...

Addressing Economic Insecurities Can Improve Patient‐Reported Outcomes in Lupus
Objective Economic insecurities, such as food, housing, transportation, and financial challenges, are modifiable risk factors and influence patient‐reported outcomes (PROs) in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). We examined the following: (1) associations between economic insecurities and PROs, and (2) the impact of screening and addressing economic ...

Effects of and Predictors for Tacrolimus Rescue Therapy among Renal Transplant Patients under Cyclosporine-Based Immunosuppression [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Though cyclosporine has dramatically decreased rejection rates and improved graft survival rates of renal allografts, there is still a remarkable rate of acute rejection and progressive deterioration of renal function after transplantation ...
