The connexin 26 (Cx26) gene suppresses the growth of HeLa cells in vitro and in vivo. We explored the possibility that the Cx26genenot only suppresses growth but can also mediate the bystander effect that is observed in some gene therapy.... more
The purpose of this work is to develop empirical equations for describing the in vitro ganciclovir (GCV) release from PLGA microspheres and also to develop and characterize a formulation containing GCV loaded PLGA microspheres dispersed... more
Nephrotic syndrome is the most common glomerular disease in children. Most cases are idiopathic and the first episode is rarely related to cytomegalovirus infection, particularly after 3 months of age. We present a 7-month-old infant who... more
A novel doughnut-shaped minitablet (DSMT) was developed and evaluated as a biodegradable intraocular drug delivery system for rate-modulated delivery of antiviral bioactives. The DSMT device was manufactured using a special set of punches... more
Abstract Ogilvie's syndrome, or acute colonic pseudo-obstruction, is a rare complication following liver transplantation. We describe two cases in which the onset of Ogilvie's syndrome is strongly temporally associated with acute... more
Patients with refractory or recurrent B-lineage hematologic malignancies have less than 50% of chance of cure despite intensive therapy and innovative approaches are needed. We hypothesize that gene modification of hematopoietic stem... more
The efficacy and safety of valganciclovir (VGCV) for cytomegalovirus (CMV) prophylaxis in liver transplant recipients has not been established. We retrospectively compared the efficacy and safety of low-dose oral VGCV (450 mg once daily... more
Assessments of herpes simplex virus 1 thymidine kinase (HSV-tk)/ganciclovir (GCV) treatment response, early in the course of therapy, are important in the evaluation and clinical management of patients. This study addresses whether... more
Transfer of the herpes simplex virus-thymidine kinase (HSV-tk) gene followed by the administration of ganciclovir (GCV) into hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)-derived cell lines either in vitro or transplanted into nude mice has been shown... more
