Does [ Heme oxygenase-1 gene transfer protect rat kidney transplant from ischemia/reperfusion injury ]?
Adenoviral vector can successfully transduce rat kidneys with the HO-1cDNA, which can protect rat renal autografts from ischemia/reperfusion injury.
Patients with SS, especially those with myalgia, had diminished PBMC cytokine release and increased serum IL-18. This finding suggests that impaired cytokine regulation may have pathogenetic importance for myalgia in SS.
