the purpose of this study was the utilization of different methods of tissue culture in proliferation of epithelial cells and autologous graft to cover surface areas without skin specifically, which is due to thermal burns more than 50%. in this experience we performed from rabbits and success to cover almost 24 times original donor site with autograft.

Study of malignant melanoma has dominated much of the activity in human cancer immunology (1-9). This reflects the widespread belief that melanoma represents an immunogenic tumor in man. Although many indications exist that melanoma patients respond to their tumor by developing humoral and cellular immunity, critical evidence that these immune reactions are directed to melanoma-specific antigen...

Aims: To evaluate umbilical cord serum therapy as a means of promoting the healing of persistent corneal epithelial defects. Methods: Umbilical cord serum or autologous serum drops were used to promote the healing of persistent epithelial defects. The study design was a prospective randomised controlled clinical trial. 60 eyes of 59 patients were divided into two groups, 31 in the cord serum gr...

Coagulation activation has been demonstrated in two prototypic autoimmune skin diseases, chronic autoimmune urticaria and bullous pemphigoid, but only the latter is associated with increased thrombotic risk. Two markers of coagulation activation (prothrombin fragment F1+2 and fibrin fragment D-dimer) were measured by immunoenzymatic methods in plasma samples from 30 patients with active chronic...
