Infliximab therapy decreases the levels of TNF-alpha and IFN-gamma mRNA in colonic mucosa of ulcerative colitis.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:Common bile duct stenting is widely performed for bridging benign and malignant obstructions. A major limitation is early stent occlusion making regular stent exchange necessary. Covalent binding of glycosaminoglycanes to polyethylene stents proved to reduce encrustation in urological implants. Since developm...
