The in vitro assessment of primary cultures of neurospheres from the IS group resulted in decreased levels of proliferation in the cell number and metabolic activity of both MTT assay and lactate levels. IS + EE group revealed an increase in the growth curve of neurospheres and higher metabolic activities of MTT and lactate. The IS cultures had…[Lees meer]

blood are highly correlated with the advanced HCC status. The change may result from immune evasion initiated by hepatocellular carcinoma cells and further investigation is warranted. Validation study is ongoing and this mechanism may be utilized to treat advanced HCC patient in the future.Several radionuclide production facilities based on a new…[Lees meer]

Long-term use of Senna and its anthraquinone glycosides has been associated with the development of hepatotoxicity in both children and adults. Our case study aims to present, for the first time, acute hepatitis associated with pancytopenia in relation probably to liver and bone marrow toxicity in a three-year-old child suffering from chronic…[Lees meer]

Next, this review introduces the chronic pain animal models commonly used in TCM research, in order to provide guidance for the targeted selection of animal models when carrying out relevant experiments in the future.Pain is a complex, unpleasant feeling and emotional experience associated with actual or potential tissue damage, and manifests…[Lees meer]

D3 dissection is the standard treatment modality for locally advanced low rectal cancer in Japan. The benefit of lateral pelvic lymph node (LPLN) dissection (LPLND) and lymph nodes along the root of inferior mesenteric artery (253 LN) dissection (253 LND) for low rectal cancer has often been studied separately, and few studies have investigated…[Lees meer]

TBX3 is a liver-specific target of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway and thought to be an oncogene in promoting liver cancer development. Herein, we demonstrate that TBX3 is in fact a tumor suppressor gene that restricts liver tumor growth. Strategies which increase TBX3 expression and/or…[Lees meer]

Group A rotaviruses (RVA) represent the most common cause of pediatric gastroenteritis in children less then 5 years, worldwide. There has been an increase in global detection and reported cases of acute gastroenteritis caused by RVA genotype G12 strains, particularly in Africa. This study sought to characterize the genomic relationship between…[Lees meer]
