The lack of fetal immune responses to foreign antigens, i.e., immunologic tolerance, is the most compelling rationale for prenatal stem cell and gene therapy. However, frequency engraftment following in utero hematopoietic transplantation (IUHCT) murine model reduced allogeneic, compared with congenic, recipients. This observation supports existence an barrier challenges classic assumptions tolerance. Here, we present evidence that presence adaptive response recipients IUHCT failed maintain...
Smartphones are one of the fastest-growing sectors in technology industry, and they continue to evolve combine faster processors, better memory, more efficient operating systems into a compact handheld device. also offer dynamic tool for use personal professional environments.1 The role smartphones medicine continues expand as additional uses applications emerge. An estimated 80% physicians, trainees, medical students smartphones, this percentage is expected increase.2–4 provide multifaceted...
Efficient gene transfer to muscle stem cells (satellite cells) has not been achieved despite broad transduction of skeletal by systemically administered adeno-associated virus serotype 2/9 (AAV-9) in mice. We hypothesized that cellular migration during fetal development would make satellite accessible for following utero intravascular injection. injected AAV-9 encoding green fluorescent protein (GFP) marker into the vascular space mice ranging ages from post-coital day 12 (E12) postnatal 1...
There is currently no gold standard for the type of analgesia or preferred circumcision technique in infants requiring after 1 month age. Our study presents a modified Plastibell technique, which offers excellent surgical outcomes, and can be performed under local anesthesia until 6 months age, thereby avoiding risks general delayed circumcision.This retrospective case series 508 consecutive male between from one institution, who all underwent anesthesia, by same pediatric surgeon, 2013 to...
Accessory hepatic lobe (AHL) is a rare anatomical variant of the liver that often asymptomatic and discovered incidentally through radiographic imaging. When pedunculated, AHL can undergo ischemic torsion, presenting as severe abdominal pain. Laparoscopic surgery provides an excellent approach to establish definitive diagnose excise offending lobe. In our case, 12-year-old boy presented with Abdominal ultrasound computer tomography demonstrated mass adjacent surrounding inflammation. The...
