Lung cancer,the generic term for malignant tumors of the alveoli and bronchial tubes,has been shown to be directly related to the inhalation of asbestos particles. As in the case of asbestosis,there is generally a period of latency【R19】___.despite the absence of further exposure. Research ...
The benefits of treatment with IFNbeta-1b observed in the original pivotal study are maintained in the longer term, with consistent treatment effects seen after 5 years. IFNbeta-1b has subsequently been shown to reduce accumulation of disability in MS patients with early active secondary ...
leading to noncompliance in treatment and poor quality of life for long-term treatment. New research and advances in IFN therapy are looking towards satisfying the unmet medical need for better-tolerated IFN therapies. In particular, IFN-λ (Type 3 IFN), initially described in 2003, signals thr...
Late CPV is often associated with long term graft injury, including CR and de novo AIH [76]. Therefore, it may be warranted to consider CPV presenting at anytime point post liver transplantation as a form of cellular rejection [76]. Should this, indeed, hold true, treatment with increased...

Interferon has serious side effects, while antibiotics do not. B. Antibiotics kill germs by attacking them directly, while interferon does not. C. Antibiotics are very effective, while the effect of interferon is limited. D. They are different in structure, although they are both proteins. ...
Side effects are particularly important considerations when long term treatment is needed. Reducing the frequency of administration and total cumulative amount administered may decrease side effects and increase tolerability. However, previous such attempts did not show any satisfactory therapeutic effectiveness...
Also, soluble trimerized CD40 ligand has been used in the clinic as an agonist for the CD40 pathway and what little has been reported is consistent with the conclusion that stimulation of CD40 alone fails to reconstitute all necessary signals for long term CD8+ T cell immunity (Vonderheide et...
