Ultrastructural change was investigated in the small intestinal mucosa of dogs after experimental dissection of the cranial mesenteric plexus and/or obstruction of the lymphatics. In group with a combination of dissection of the plexus and obstruction of the lymphatics (Group A): Marked mucosal edema and dilatation of intercellular spaces of epithelial cell were observed after the 6th postoperative hours (POH), and numerous pinocytotic vesicles appeared after 24th POH. After the 5th postoperative days, rough glycocalyx and irregular microvilli were recognized in epithelial cells. As a characteristic change, pinocytotic vesicles fused together and formed a complex. However, no lipid droplet were accumulated in epithelial cells. In group with obstruction of lymphatics (Group B): Epithelial cells were full in lipid droplets. Based on these evidences, it was suggested that diarrhea and nutritional disorder were mainly caused by the disturbance of absorption and water transport in epithelial cells, involving severe pathological changes in their ultrastructure.

Cleft lip and palate (CL/P) are prevalent congenital anomalies with complex genetic causes. The G874A mutation of T-box transcription factor 22 (TBX-22) gene is notably associated with CL/P, while the underlying mechanism remains to be clarified. Studies have shown that the restriction of epithelial-mesenchymal transformation (EMT) process in medial edge epithelial cells (MEEs) is crucial for CL/P development.

Sorafenib (Sora) is a first-line treatment for patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). It can significantly improve the survival rate of patients with advanced HCC, but it is prone to drug resistance during treatment, so the therapeutic effect is extremely limited. Here, we demonstrate that an elevated expression of protein kinase p38γ in hepatocellular carcinoma cells diminishes the tumor cells' sensitivity to Sora.

Photothermal therapy, in which a laser is an effective tool, is a promising method for cancer treatment. Laser parameters, including power, irradiation time, type of laser radiation (continuous or chopped), and the concentration of the photothermal agent, can affect the efficiency of this method. Therefore, this study investigated and compared the effects of different laser parameters on the efficiency of photothermal treatment for cervical cancer, which is the fourth most prevalent cancer in women.

Currently, the identification of valuable candidate genes affecting milk fat synthesis in dairy cows is still limited, and the specific regulatory mechanism is still unknown. In this study, we used primary bovine mammary epithelial cells(BMECs)as a model and utilized overexpression and knockdown techniques for the PI4K2A gene to investigate the specific mechanisms by which it regulates lipid metabolism in BMECs. We studied whether PI4K2A regulates the inhibition of trans-10, cis-12 conjugated linoleic acid (t10,c12-CLA) on lipid synthesis in BMECs.
