Effects of repeated doses of paracetamol administration during pregnancy on lung, kidney, and liver tissues of pregnant rats.

Objectives: Paracetamol is one of the most widely used analgesics and antipyretics in the world. It is the most commonly used analgesic and antipyretic agent in pregnancy. Paracetamol is known to have toxic effects on the liver, lung, and kidney.

Does lithium attenuate the liver damage due to oxidative stress and liver glycogen depletion in experimental common bile duct obstruction?

In extrahepatic cholestasis, the molecular mechanisms of liver damage due to bile acid accumulation remain elusive. In this study, the activation of glutamatergic receptors was hypothesized to be responsible for bile acid-induced oxidative stress and liver damage. Recent evidence showed that lithium, as an N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) GluN2B subunit inhibitor, may act on the glutamate/NMDAR signaling axis.

Texture features of primary tumor on F-FDG PET images in non-small cell lung cancer: The relationship between imaging and histopathological parameters.

Purpose: The aims of this study were to evaluate the relationships between textural features of the primary tumor on FDG PET images and clinical-histopathological parameters which are useful in predicting prognosis in newly diagnosed non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients.

Methods: PET/CT images of ninety (90) patients with NSCLC prior to surgery were analyzed retrospectively. All patients had resectable tumors.

Clinicopathological and Prognostic Significance of the EML4-ALK Translocation and IGFR1, TTF1, Napsin A Expression in Patients with Lung Adenocarcinoma.

Objective: Patients with lung adenocarcinoma who harbor ALK gene rearrangements can demonstrate significant clinical benefit with ALK tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Insulin-like growth factor receptor 1 (IGFR1) is a cellular membrane receptor that is overexpressed in many tumors. It plays an important role in cancer progression and is associated with increased postoperative recurrence and poorer disease-free survival.
