The influence of replacing diet fish meal LT94 (FM) with different levels of full fat soybean meal (FFSB) on growth performance and enzymes activity in stomach, hepato-pancreas and intestine were investigated for Nile tilapia Oreochromis niloticus. Four diets (D1, D2, D3 and D4) were formulated 0, 15, 20, and 20 g/100 protein of diets + DL-methionine by replacing FFSB with fish meal respectivel...

The approaches for maintaining hepatocytes in vitro are aimed at recapitulating aspects of the native liver microenvironment through the use of co-cultures, surface coatings and 3D spheroids. This study highlights the effects of spatial confinement-a less studied component of the in vivo microenvironment. We demonstrate that hepatocytes cultured in low-volume microfluidic channels (microchamber...

BACKGROUND San Huang Shel Shin Tang (SHSST) is a traditional herbal decoction used as a hepato-protective agent and is composed of Rheum officinale Baill, Scutellaria baicalnsis Geprgi and Coptis chinensis Franch (2:1:1 w/w). Beta-cyclodextrin (β-CD) modification may potentially increase the solubility and spectral properties of SHSST. METHODS In this research, the hepato-protective effects o...

Results Operative mortality, disease – free survival and overall survival are very similar to the deducible information of the whole survey and they seem to be influenced by tactics and surgical technique. As the elderly can present comorbidity, cognitive defects and less life expectancy, appropriate therapeutical options require a significant selection by the candidate for major resective surg...

The canals of Hering and stem cells At the close of the 20 century, a decades long questions was finally settled: both rodent and human livers had facultative hepato-biliary stem cells. The stem cell niche in which these cells’ activities were identified was the canal of Hering (CoH) [1] – the link between hepatocyte canaliculi and the biliary tree. This structure had been functionally demonstr...

It has been suggested that there are hepatic receptors for sodium chloride 1) glucose 2,3), amino acids 4-7), and osmotic pressure 8) Several studies have shown that the receptors for glucose or arginine in the hepato-portal system exert a reflex regulation of the pancreatic neuroendocrine system and modulate insulin secretion 2,4-6,9) The vagal efferent pathways may be involved in the pancreat...

1. Arterial concentration and arterial-venous differences of glutamine across the kidney, forearm, hepato-splanchnic bed and brain were measured in patients with chronic renal insufficiency and in patients with normally functioning kidneys before and during chronic ammonium chloride acidosis. 2. In chronic renal insufficiency and in chronic metabolic acidosis there is a rise in glutamine releas...

Pulmonary intravascular macrophages (PIMs) are constitutively found in species such as cattle, horse, pig, sheep, goat, cats, and whales and can be induced in species such as rats, which normally lack them. It is believed that human lung lacks PIMs, but there are previous suggestions of their induction in patients suffering from liver dysfunction. Recent data show induction of PIMs in bile-duct...
