Cyclosporine absorption in intestinal transplantation.

abstract：BACKGROUND:The potential risk of transmission of porcine endogenous retroviruses (PERV) from xenogeneic donors into humans has been widely debated. Because we were involved in a phase I/II clinical trial using a bioartificial liver support system (BLSS), we proceeded to evaluate the biosafety of this device. MATERIALS...
