MicroRNAs Implicated in Dysregulation of Gene Expression Following Human Lung Transplantation [PDF]
Transl Respir Med. 2013; 1: 12, 2013 Lung transplantation remains the only viable treatment option for the majority of patients with advanced lung diseases. However, 5-year post-transplant survival rates remain low primarily secondary to chronic rejection. Novel insights from global gene expression profiles may provide molecular phenotypes and therapeutic targets to improve outcomes after

Regime and Treatment Effects in Duration Models: Decomposing Expectation and Transplant Effects on the Kidney Waitlist [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 This paper proposes a causal decomposition framework for settings in which an initial regime randomization influences the timing of a treatment duration. The initial randomization and treatment affect in turn a duration outcome of interest. Our empirical application considers the survival of individuals on the kidney transplant waitlist.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A bioengineered skin equivalent composed of electrospun poly(ε‐caprolactone) (PCL) and the bioactive peptide Fmoc‐FRGD is developed for severe burn treatment. This scaffold promotes full‐thickness skin regeneration by supporting cellular adhesion and integration. In‐vitro and in‐vivo studies show enhanced mechanical stability, accelerated wound closure,

Preparation of harvested skin using the Versajet Hydrosurgery System in full-thickness skin grafts
Archives of Plastic Surgery, 2019 During a full-thickness skin graft procedure, the thickness of the harvested donor skin is adjusted based on the location of the recipient site and the judgment of the surgeon. Conventionally, the thickness of the harvested skin is roughly adjusted using

Protease Changes in Transplanted Skin.
Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1966 SummaryProtease activity of rat skin homografts and autografts was estimated at varying intervals for 16 days after transplantation. An enzyme hydrolyzing ATyEe was considerably decreased throughout the period in the autografts as well as in the homografts.

Indefinite survival of rat islet allografts following infusion of donor bone marrow without cytoablation [PDF]
, 1996 We have tested the effect of donor bone marrow cell (DBMC) infusion on the survival of pancreatic islet allografts in the rat, without the use of cytoablative recipient conditioning. Lewis and diabetic Brown Norway rats were used as donors and recipients,
