Does helios enhance Treg Cell Function in Cooperation With FoxP3?
Our findings indicate that Helios enhances induced Treg cell function in cooperation with FoxP3.
We have noted that the type of anastomosis (Vest traction sutures) significantly increases the likelihood of early bladder neck contracture following radical prostatectomy. The presence of contrast extravasation on the postoperative VCUG study (implying urinary extravasation) did not influence the formation of an anastomotic stricture as long as patients were maintained with catheter drainage until resolution of extravasation. The appearance of the newly constructed bladder neck on the postoperative VCUG image was not predictive of a subsequent contracture.
