Furthermore, IL-24 and IL-24.tLyP-1 had the highest apoptotic activity and significant upregulatory effect on the GADD-153 and BAX genes (p less then 0.0003). The modeling showed that peptide modifications left no detrimental effect on IL-24 attachment to the cognate receptor. Conclusion IL-24 can tolerate tLyP-1 peptide modification by retaining its secretion potency. Tethering tLyP-1 to IL-24 can induce more apoptosis than its modified versions by RGR or buforin.Traditionally, ABO-incompatible heart transplantation was accomplished using a plasma exchange technique to remove recipient plasma containing donor-incompatible anti-A/B isohaemagglutinins. However, this technique exposed patients to large volumes of allogeneic blood and blood products (up to three times the patient's circulating volume). In 2018, we published the first reported case of an ABO-incompatible heart transplant using an intraoperative immunoadsorption technique which minimises the exposure to blood products by specifically targeting anti-A/B isohaemagglutinins. We have subsequently used this technique in all children undergoing ABO-incompatible heart transplantation and become convinced of its efficacy in this population while observing no adverse effects. This article outlines the practical details required to perform the technique in order to avoid hyperacute rejection.Life Position, one of the central concepts in Transactional Analysis, is a person's convictions about the worth of the self and others-a basic psychological stand, which is deeply ingrained. There are four Life Positions "I'm OK-You're OK", "I'm OK-You're not OK", "I'm not OK-You're OK", and "I'm not OK-You're not OK". Contradicting Berne's theory of only one depressive position ("I'm not OK-You're OK"), past findings showed that both "I'm not OK-You're OK" and "I'm not OK-You're not OK" positions relate to depression, with the "I'm not OK-You're not OK" position relatin
