antigen-receptor complex stimulation triggers protein kinase c-dependent cd11a/cd18-cytoskeleton association in t lymphocytes.although it is well accepted that intercellular adhesion involving the cd11a/cd18 (lfa-1) complex is critical in a wide array of t cell-dependent processes, recent demonstrations of an lfa-1 high avidity state, induced by triggering the t cell receptor (tcr) complex, has raised questions about the intracellular signals generated and molecular events leading to effective cell coupling, as well as their orderly sequence. in this study, we assessed the effects of t cell activation on the actin-base ...20061346786
vitiligo patterns simulating autoimmune and rheumatic diseases.several variants of generalised vitiligo can be recognised by their cutaneous distribution. in some, certain anatomical regions--e.g., hands--are predominantly affected while the cutaneous depigmentation in other variants shows a similar anatomical distribution to that of the internal structures affected in some of the autoimmune and rheumatic diseases. five patients have been seen, and three described by others, with vitiligo affecting skin of eyelids and lower front of neck, reminiscent of the ...199989452

development of gingivitis in pre-school children and young adults. a comparative experimental study.earlier studies suggest that children and adults differ in the propensity to develop gingivitis when oral hygiene is abandoned. to confirm the existence of such a difference, a comparative study of pre-school children and young adults was made with objective registration methods. the author performed all registrations. after a period of intensive oral hygiene, all cleaning of teeth was discontinued for 21 days. the amount of bacterial plaque, the amount of gingival exudate and crevicular leukocy ...2004353084
influence of endoscopic papillotomy on the management of bile duct stones.in a 4 year period two hundred and seventy-nine patients were treated for gallstones in a single surgical unit. one hundred and thirteen were treated for stones in the bile duct, of them 49 patients were treated surgically and 64 endoscopically. twenty-three patients had papillotomy without previous cholecystectomy. there were two deaths, both after surgery following failure of endoscopic treatment. morbidity was greater in the surgically treated group. it is concluded that a large proportion of ...20103768645
normal cholesterol levels with lovastatin (mevinolin) therapy in a child with homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia following liver transplantation.patients with homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia produce no normal low-density lipoprotein (ldl) receptors, and as a result, ldl accumulates in plasma, causing severe premature atherosclerosis. two years ago, liver transplantation was performed in a child with homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia, restoring ldl receptor activity to about 60% of normal and reducing the ldl cholesterol level by 81%. however, the patient's lipoprotein levels remained significantly elevated for her age and ...20123534334
