Increased use of antimicrobial agents and hospital admission for infections in patients with primary adrenal insufficiency: a cohort study.

abstract：OBJECTIVE AND DESIGN:Based on our clinical experience with combined gene therapy of glioblastoma, we developed a retroviral vector expressing two therapeutic genes (i.e. thymidine kinase of herpes simplex virus, HSV-TK, and interleukin-2, IL-2) and evaluated its efficiency in vitro and in vivo. METHODS:Expression of t...
