Do growth factors increase retroviral transduction but decrease clonogenic potential of umbilical cord blood CD34+ cells?
These results demonstrate that a reasonably high transduction efficiency of purified CD34+ cells can be achieved with short schedules of incubation/infection in the absence of stroma or extracellular matrix.
Cone beam computed tomography can be used as a posttreatment diagnostic technique for detecting caries under high-atomic-number fixed plate dentures. By combining high resolution and accuracy, cone beam computed tomography could provide the means for diagnosing caries without removing fixed plate dentures.
