Myeloid-Derived Suppressor Cells: Not Only in Tumor Immunity

Frontiers in Immunology, 2019
Since the realization that immature myeloid cells are powerful modulators of the immune response, many studies on “myeloid-derived suppressor cells” (MDSCs) have documented their ability to promote tumor progression in melanoma and other cancers. Whether

An Analysis of Early Renal Transplant Protocol Biopsies - the High Incidence of Subclinical Tubulitis [PDF]

, 2001
To investigate the possibility that we have been underestimating the true incidence of acute rejection, we began to perform protocol biopsies after kidney transplantation. This analysis looks at the one-week biopsies. Between March 1 and October 1, 1999,

Sociodemographic factors and patient perceptions are associated with attitudes to kidney transplantation among haemodialysis patients [PDF]

, 2008
Background. Treatment decisions made by patients with chronic kidney disease are crucial in the renal transplantation process. These decisions are influenced, amongst other factors, by attitudes towards different treatment options, which are modulated by
