Abstract

Precision-cut rat liver slices were prepared with a Krumdieck tissue slicer and cultured in three standard hepatocyte culture media. Rat liver slices cultured in either RPMI 1640 medium or Williams Medium E could be maintained in culture for up to 72 hr. In contrast, Leibovitz's L-15 medium was unsatisfactory in that slice viability, assessed either by morphological examination or by measurement of enzyme activities, could not be maintained for periods greater than 24 hr. As a measure of functional viability liver slices were cultured with some known rodent peroxisome proliferators, namely clofibric acid, nafenopin, ciprofibrate and Wy-14,643. The peroxisome proliferators induced both palmitoyl CoA oxidation and carnitine acetyltransferase activities in 48- and 72-hr slice cultures. Ultrastructural examination of liver slices cultured with either ciprofibrate or Wy-14,643 for 72 hr revealed an increase in the number of peroxisomes. These results demonstrate that rat liver slices may be maintained in culture for up to 72 hr, and that they respond in a similar manner to rat primary hepatocyte cultures to some peroxisome proliferators. Precision-cut liver slices may therefore be a useful alternative in vitro system to hepatocyte c...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
