Recently, Bucher et al. addressed rational graft-versushost disease (GVHD) prophylaxis (December 2012 issue of this Journal). The authors addressed calcineurin inhibition and T-cell immune modulation but fully overlooked the important results obtained with rituximab that have been reported in the prevention of acute and chronic GVHD. Initial reports on the potential role of rituximab in chronic...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS In the last decade, genomic studies using DNA markers have strongly influenced the current phylogeny of angiosperms. Genome size and ploidy level have contributed to this discussion, being considered important characters in biosystematics, ecology and population biology. Despite the recent increase in studies related to genome size evolution and polyploidy incidence, only a ...

Neocosmospora E.F. Smith is a filamentous ascomycete fungal genus belong to Hypocreales order and contains several species mainly pathogenic for plants (Cannon & Hawksworth 1982). Species of Neocosmospora are known to live in the soil of tropical or subtropical areas and often in association with plant roots. During summer 2017, for isolation of Fusarium species from uncultivated soil (foothill...

1ymphosarcomas. Callanan et aL. (1992) found normal responses of lymphocytes to mitogens in one case, and Poli et al. (1994) detected a marked reduction in circulating CD4+ T-Iymphocytes in another case. ln a series of eight FIV -infected cats (two experimental and six naturaI) with lymphosarcoma, seven of the tumours were high-grade B-cell Iymphomas of the centroblastic or immunoblastic subtyp...
