Do comparing methods of administering high-frequency jet ventilation in a model of laryngotracheal stenosis?
Ventilatory driving pressure during supraglottic high-frequency jet ventilation may be reduced to minimize high airway pressures and hence the potential for pulmonary barotrauma in patients with laryngotracheal stenosis.
This study indicates that all the gammac-cytokines tested can stimulate proliferation of leukemic T cells and suggests that synergistic effects may occur in vivo. We present the first demonstration that IL-9 and IL-15 can provide a proliferative signal to T-ALL cells. Importantly, our results support the hypothesis that IL-7 may function as a critical regulator of T-ALL and that its activity may be potentiated by other Zc-cytokines.
