Introduction: Intraoperative parathyroid hormone measurement (IO-PTH) was first described in 1988 and it's potentially useful in predicting cure after parathyroidectomy. The aim of this study was to evaluate IO-PTH decay profile and the utility of this procedure in predicting cure in primary (PHH) and secondary (SHH) hyperparathyroidism due to renal disease.
Patients And Methods: 109 patients were evaluated from 06/2000 to 12/2004. 33 had PHH and 76 SHH (52 in dialysis, 24 with renal graft). IO-PTH was measured at times 0 (before resection), 10, 20 minutes after parathyroidectomy using immunometric assay (Elecsys-PTH/Immunoassay-Roche). Time necessary to perform assay: 10 minutes.
Results: HPP patients: IO-PTH average decrease 79.2% from basal levels after 10 minutes. HPS: IO-PTH average decrease 85.8% and 87.6% after 10 minutes in dialysis and renal graft patients respectively. All patients were cured, except 2 (1 PHH, 1 SHH), because of a double adenoma and ectopic (mediastinal) parathyroid respectively. Failure in IO-PTH decrease was observed in both.
Conclusion: IO-PTH measurement is useful in improving surgical success rates in PHH and SHH.

Inclusion of plasma (or plasma proteins) in human hepatocyte uptake studies narrows, but does not close, the gap in in vitro to in vivo extrapolation (IVIVE) of organic anion transporting polypeptide (OATP)-mediated hepatic clearance (CL) of statins. We have previously shown that this "apparent" protein-mediated uptake effect (PMUE) of statins by OATP1B1-expressing cells, in the presence of 5% human serum albumin (HSA), is mostly an artifact caused by residual statin-HSA complex remaining in the uptake assay. We determined if the same was true with plated human hepatocytes (PHH) and if this artifact can be reduced using suspended human hepatocytes (SHH) and the oil-spin method.

Despite the increasing prevalence of Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) worldwide, there is no effective treatment available for this disease. "Ballooned hepatocyte" is a characteristic finding in NASH and is correlated with disease prognosis, but their mechanisms of action are poorly understood; furthermore, neither animal nor in vitro models of NASH have been able to adequately represent ballooned hepatocytes. Herein, we engineered cell sheets to develop a new in vitro model of ballooned hepatocytes.

Background: Hyperhidrosis is responsible for various causes. The increased reactive oxygen radical production with insufficient antioxidant mechanism capacity may play a role in the etiopathogenesis of hyperhidrosis. It is probable to gather data about oxidative stress by detecting plasma thiol/disulfide ratio.

Hepatic uptake clearance has been measured in suspended human hepatocytes (SHH). Plated human hepatocytes (PHH) after short-term culturing are increasingly employed to study hepatic transport driven mainly by its higher throughput. To know pros/cons of both systems, the hepatic uptake clearances of several organic anion transporting polypeptide 1B substrates were compared between PHH and SHH by determining the initial uptake velocities or through dynamic model-based analyses.

Suspended human hepatocytes (SHH) have long been used in assessing hepatic drug uptake, while plated human hepatocytes in short-term monolayer culture (PHH) have gained use in recent years. This study aimed to cross-evaluate SHH and PHH in measuring the hepatic uptake mediated by organic anion transporting polypeptide 1Bs (OATP1Bs). We compared the time courses of cell-to-medium (C/M) concentration ratios and initial uptake clearance values of the OATP1B substrates (pitavastatin, rosuvastatin, cerivastatin, pravastatin, dehydropravastatin, and SC-62807) between SHH and PHH.
