Cultured fish epithelial cells are a source of alarm substance
In various species of fishes, the importance of visual cues in the determination of environmental threat and subsequent predator avoidance is clear. Chemical cues also play an essential role facilitating predator avoidance. Among fish in the superorder Ostariophysi, club cells in the epidermis produce an alarm substance. Damage to the skin during a predation event releases an alarm substance (A...
متن کاملEvaluation of the role of TLR4 in endotoxin-induced hepatic encephalopathy in rats with biliary cirrhosis
Background: Hepatic encephalopathy is defined as a neuropsychiatric brain dysfunction in acute or chronic liver failure. Infection and inflammation have crucial role in its pathophysiology. The purpose of our study was to demonstrate the relationship between toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) expression and the encephalopathy induced with endotoxin in biliary cirrhotic rats. Methods: The present stud...
متن کاملIsolation and culture of biliary epithelial cells.
At one time it was thought that biliary epithelial cells simply formed the lining to the tubular conduits which constitute the biliary tract. Development of in vitro systems for culturing biliary epithelial cells has enabled functional studies which increasingly show that this is far from true, and that biliary epithelial cells do have important functional roles. Disruption of these functions m...
متن کاملBiphasic Epithelial Predominant Synovial Sarcoma Presenting as Painful Thigh Mass
Synovial sarcomas are soft tissue neoplasms mostly located in the lower extremities of young adults. A case of synovial sarcoma of the thigh in a 35-year-old male with the predominant epithelial component is reported. Microscopically the tumor showed variable-sized well-differentiated glands lined by the cuboidal cells with small foci of spindle cell component between glandular structures...
متن کاملHepatic biliary epithelial cells acquire epithelial integrity but lose plasticity to differentiate into hepatocytes in vitro during development.
In developing organs, epithelial tissue structures are mostly developed by the perinatal period. However, it is unknown whether epithelial cells are already functionally mature and whether they are fixed in their lineage. Here we show that epithelial cells alter their plasticity during postnatal development by examining the differentiation potential of epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM)(...
