Are everolimus and mycophenolate mofetil potent inhibitors of fibroblast proliferation after lung transplantation?
RAD and MMF were the most potent antifibroproliferative drugs and were effective at concentrations achieved clinically, supporting their use for the treatment of patients with early BO. Our method holds promise as an in vitro model to assess the likely in vivo responses of human lung fibroblasts to specific immunosuppressive drugs.
A sensitive blood-based CRC screening test using the SEPT9 biomarker specifically detects a majority of CRCs of all stages and colorectal locations. The test could be offered to individuals of average risk for CRC who are unwilling or unable to undergo colonscopy.
