Nonarterialized orthotopic liver transplantation with no immunosuppression was performed in 13 mouse-strain combinations. Two strain combinations with major histocompatibility complex class I and class II and minor histocompatibility complex disparity had 20% and 33% survival of more than 100 days, but the other 11 combinations, including four that were fully allogeneic and all with only class ...

Four methods for the accurate delineation of epidemiologically related and unrelated strains of Candida lusitaniae were compared. Three pulsed-field electrophoretic methods, including two contour-clamped homogeneous field gel electrophoresis methods (EKP-1 and EKP-2) yielding electrophoretic karyotype patterns of intact chromosomal DNA and a method in which the chromosomal DNA was macrodigested...

In this paper, the response of single three-dimensional phantom and self-avoiding polymers to localized step strains are studied for two cases in the absence of hydrodynamic interactions: (i) Polymers tethered at one end with the strain created at the point of tether, and (ii) free polymers with the strain created in the middle of the polymer. The polymers are assumed to be in their equilibrium...

When carefully controlled numbers of alloantigenic cells are injected into the anterior chamber o f the eye, they elicit an unconvent ional host immune response. This phenomenon, first described in a rat a l lo immune system (1, 2), has been successfully adapted to mice. B A L B / c mice, injected intracamerally with P815 tumor cells derived from the D B A / 2 mouse strain, can be rendered spec...

conclusions pci was accompanied by some improvement in left atrial deformation indices as assessed by tissue doppler imaging. revascularization can, therefore, improve patient outcome. results regarding changes in left trial functional parameters after pci, those such as the strain of the septal wall and the anterior and inferior walls and the strain rate of the anterior and lateral walls signi...
