Oesophageal manometric studies in patients with chronic Chagas disease and megacolon.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:This study was designed to evaluate the roles of microRNAs (miRNAs) in slow transit constipation (STC). DESIGN:All human tissue samples were from the muscularis externa of the colon. Expression of 372 miRNAs was examined in a discovery cohort of four patients with STC versus three age/sex-matched controls by...

abstract：BACKGROUND:Suicide gene therapy consists of the transfer into tumour cells of a "suicide" gene that can convert a non-toxic compound into a lethal drug. Expression of the cytosine deaminase gene leads to the conversion of the non-toxic compound 5-fluorocytosine to 5-fluorouracil. We have recently shown that "suicide ce...
