Are progesterone receptor messenger ribonucleic acid and protein overexpressed in human uterine leiomyomas?
These data provide the first evidence that progesterone receptor messenger ribonucleic acid is overexpressed in uterine leiomyomas, suggesting that amplified progesterone-mediated signaling is instrumental in the abnormal growth of these tumors.
Both TNF receptors were positively associated with acute rejection and were good predictors of impending acute rejection. The ratio of sIL-1RII over IL-1 (together with IL-1ra that we previously measured in FNAB cultures) suggests that IL-1 actions may be inhibited with current immunosuppression early after transplantation.
