Experiments designed to ascertain the reason for the cessation of growth of heart fibroblasts when they are cultivated in a plasma coagulum with embryo juice as nutrient fluid have shown that it is due, first, to the gradual removal of serum from the coagulum, and second, to an insufficient supply of embryo juice. In a medium containing embryo extract at 66 per cent concentration and serum at 8 per cent concentration, growth continued until the entire coagulum in a 3(1/2) cm. flask was covered with tissue. The serum is needed to furnish additional nutriment, and also to prevent digestion of the coagulum.

Article Synopsis
- - Huanglongbing disease (HLB) is a serious threat to the 'Kinnow' mandarin in Pakistan, caused by a bacterial species and spread by the Asian citrus psyllid insect.
- - The study explored the use of selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) synthesized from garlic extract to enhance fruit quality and antioxidant defenses in HLB-infected 'Kinnow' plants, finding that a 75 mg/L concentration significantly improved various fruit characteristics and antioxidant enzyme levels.
- - Proteomics analysis showed that SeNPs affected the expression of proteins related to growth and stress response, indicating that their application can improve the nutritional quality and overall health of HLB-affected mandarin fruit.

Article Synopsis
- Ochratoxin A (OTA) is a harmful substance produced by certain fungi that contaminates food and poses health risks as a Group 2B carcinogen to humans and animals.
- In experiments, ginger juice demonstrated a remarkable ability to reduce OTA levels by 95.63% under specific conditions, showing efficiency that depended on temperature, pH, and salt concentration.
- Additionally, treatments with ginger juice improved cell viability in liver cancer cells and reduced harmful ROS levels, as well as reversed adverse effects of OTA in zebrafish embryos, highlighting ginger’s protective potential against OTA toxicity.

Background: Biliary atresia (BA) is an intractable disease of unknown cause that develops in the neonatal period. It causes jaundice and liver damage due to the destruction of extrahepatic biliary tracts,. We have found that heterozygous knockout mice of the SRY related HMG-box 17 (Sox17) gene, a master regulator of stem/progenitor cells in the gallbladder wall, exhibit a condition like BA.

Department of Pediatrics, Yamaguchi University Graduate School of Medicine, Ube, Japan.
Background: The risk of various complications, such as neonatal death, early onset sepsis, and chronic lung disease, is increased in infants born to mothers with chorioamnionitis (CAM). However, predicting the diagnosis of histological CAM (hCAM) in the early postnatal period is challenging for clinicians due to pathological considerations. Therefore, an early diagnostic tool for hCAM is needed.
