The Absence of Accessible Vitronectin Receptors in Differentiated Tissue Hinders Adenoviral-Mediated Gene Transfer to the Intestinal Epithelium In Vitro
(Kluwer Academic Publishers-Plenum Publishers; Plenum Publishing Corporation ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1997-09)
Purpose . Adenoviral (Ad) vectors have been used as efficient tools for gene therapy in various tissues, whereas in some differentiated epithelium transduction efficiency is almost abolished.
Perifollicular transgenic expression of human interleukin-1 receptor antagonist protein following topical application of novel liposome-plasmid dna formulations in vivo
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 1997-06)
Expression plasmid DNA for the human interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra) protein was formulated with nonionic:cationic (NC) liposomes or phosphatidylcholine:cationic (PC) liposomes and applied to the auricular skin ...
Racial differences in scleroderma among women in Michigan

Objective. To examine racial differences in disease onset, extent, manifestations, and survival among women with scleroderma. Methods. A retrospective cohort study of women with scleroderma, diagnosed in Michigan between ...
Use of receptors immobilized on microspheres to identify ligand binding sites in tissue sections: detection of lymph node ligands for L-Selectin
(Springer-Verlag; Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg, 1997-01)
Particulate microspheres bearing immobilized probes can be used to identify ligands expressed by cells and require only brightfield microscopy for detection. There are distinct advantages to using microspheres to detect ...
Mechanisms of drug-induced lupus. III. Sex-specific differences in T cell homing may explain increased disease severity in female mice
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 1997-07)
Objective . To determine if sex-specific differences in lymphocyte trafficking could contribute to increased disease severity in female mice. Methods . A lupus-like disease was induced by injecting male and female mice ...
Mechanisms of drug-induced lupus. IV. Comparison of procainamide and hydralazine with analogs in vitro and in vivo
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 1997-08)
Objective . T cells treated with DNA methylation inhibitors overexpress lymphocyte function-associated antigen 1 (LFA-1), which results in autoreactivity, and the autoreactive cells cause a lupus-like disease in vivo, ...
Effect of slow release IL-12 and IL-10 on inflammation, local macrophage function and the regional lymphoid response during mycobacterial (Th1) and schistosomal (Th2) antigen-elicited pulmonary granuloma formation
(Birkhäuser Verlag; Birkhäuser Verlag, Basel, ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1997-03)
Objective and Design: This study examines the local and regional effects of exogenously administered interleukins 10 (IL-10) and 12 (IL-12) on pulmonary granulomas mediated by Th1/type 1-(IFN-<gamma>) and Th2/type 2-(IL-4, ...
