Journal Article
The haemopoietic stem cell: between apoptosis and self renewal.
Faris Q. Alenzi,Badi Q. Alenazi,Shamweel Ahmad,Mohamed L. Salem,Ali A. Al-Jabri,Richard K.H. Wyse +5 more
TL;DR: Recent developments in the understanding of the molecular, biological, and physiological characteristics of haemopoietic stem cells are reviewed.
Journal Article
Prevalence, antibiotic susceptibility pattern and production of extended-spectrum beta-lactamases amongst clinical isolates of Klebsiella pneumoniae at Armed Forces Hospital in Saudi Arabia.
TL;DR: A high percentage of ESBL-producers among clinical isolates of K. pneumoniae is demonstrated and a high rate of multidrug resistance is observed and continued infection control measures and prudent use of antimicrobial agents are essential.

Faris Q. Alenzi,Ahmed Q. Alotaibi,Gdhi M. Almotiri,Anwar M. Alanazi,Faisal M. Alanazi,Mohammed S. Alenazi,Khalaf A. Alanazi,Mohammed J. Alenzi,Shamweel Ahmad +8 more
TL;DR: There is likely to be future clinical relevance in harnessing growing knowledge both of apoptotic mechanisms, and their regulation, in the search to achieve modalities for therapeutic benefit.
Role of ctla-4 in xenotranplantation
Faris Q. Alenzi,Mohammed W. Al-Rabia,Badi Q. Alenazi,Abdulla M. Mubaraki,Mahmoud Lotfy,Mohamed L. Salem,Haris M. Siddiqui,Jamal M. Arif,Shamweel Ahmad,Ali A. Al-Jabri,Richard K.H. Wyse +10 more
TL;DR: Evidence suggests that the degree of immunosuppression required to prevent T cell mediated xenograft rejection will be higher than that needed to preventT cell mediated allograft rejected, and strategies for graft-specific immunos Puppression and improved tolerance are needed.
