we aimed to develop a cost-effective and robust method to predict drug resistance in individualpatients. representative tissue fragments were obtained from tumors removed from femalepatients, aged 24-74 years old. the tumor tissue was taken by a histopathology’s or a surgeonunder sterile conditions. cells obtained by enzymatic dissociation from tumor after surgery, werecultured as a monolayer f...

INTRODUCTION To determine whether keeping the heart empty and beating is an effective technique to preserve hypertrophied pig hearts, and to investigate the underlying mechanism. METHODS Ten Bama Miniature pigs with hypertrophied hearts were divided into 2 groups (n = 5 in each group). One group underwent normothermic normokalemic simultaneous perfusion (NNSP). The other group was subjected t...

BACKGROUND Lysophosphatidylcholine (lysoPC), a metabolite from membrane phospholipids, accumulates in the ischemic myocardium and plays an important role in the development of myocardial dysfunction ventricular arrhythmia. In this study, we investigated if baicalein, a major component of Huang Qui, can protect against lysoPC-induced cytotoxicity in rat H9c2 embryonic cardiomyocytes. METHODS C...
