Abstract:
... Cryo-isolation of therapeutic cells such as pancreatic islets has been proposed as a novel new alternative to conventional enzymatic digestion of the pancreas (Taylor, Baicu., Transpl Proc. 43 (2011) 3181–3183. And Cell Transpl. 2013 (In Press)). Apart from avoiding the expense, inconsistencies and toxicity associated with the collagenase-digestion process, cryo-isolation embodies several inherent ...

Abstract:
... Spectral Doppler (velocimetric) indices are important indicators of blood perfusion and physiological status of internal organs. Doppler ultrasound is used in andrology to assess the blood flow in the testicular arteries, aiding in the diagnosis of scrotal disorders and abnormal spermatogenesis. It was proposed that blood flow indices measured in the testicular artery, namely, blood flow resistanc ...

Abstract:
... Deposition of lipids in the intima is followed by infiltration of inflammatory cells, like monocytic cells and T lymphocytes, in atherosclerosis. However, roles of lipids in the infiltration of the inflammatory cells are not clearly defined. We investigated the possible involvement of cholesterol or its catabolites in recruitment of monocytic cells. Consumption of a high cholesterol-diet resulted ...

A high-cholesterol diet led to an increased transcription of the IL-8 gene in the arteries and elevated levels of CXCL8 in sera of ApoE−/− mice, compared with those of wild-type C57BL/6 mice. Treatment of THP-1 monocyte/macrophage cells with 27-hydroxycholesterol (27OHChol) resulted in ...

Abstract:
... The cutaneous distribution and anatomical landmarks of the lateral thoracic artery in the dog are reported. Perfusion studies in cadavers showed a variable distribution, but a skin flap capable of rotation through 90° could be created. The successful use of an axial pattern skin flap based on the lateral thoracic artery for reconstruction of a major skin deficit over the caudal elbow of a Greyhoun ...

Abstract:
... The human monocyte cell line U937 was differentiated into an adherent macrophage phenotype using phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) to assay the phagocytosis of oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL) that may play a role in atherosclerosis. Microbeads were coated with the inflammatory ligand oxLDL to create a novel phagocytosis assay that models the binding of macrophages to oxLDL in the soli ...

To understand the functions of HtrA1 in placentation and in the etiology of preeclampsia, we established HtrA1⁻/⁻ mice. HtrA1⁻/⁻ mice show intrauterine growth retardation, and their placentas are small due to a reduced size of the junctional zone and aber ...
