AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
Rat liver microsomal cytochrome P-450d was abundantly expressed in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae by using a yeast-Escherichia coli shuttle vector consisting of rat liver P-450d cDNA and yeast acid phosphatase promoter. The expressed cytochrome P-450d was immunologically crossed with rat liver P-450d. The hydroxylase activity of estra-1,3,5(10)-triene-3, 17 beta-diol was 11 nmol/min per nmol P-450d, which is comparable to that reported previously for rat liver P-450d. The expressed P-450d content was nearlyt 1% of total yeast protein as estimated from immunoblotting, hydroxylase activity and optical absorpton of the reduced CO form.

Iron overload in transfusion-dependent thalassemia patients represents a significant public health challenge due to its high mortality rate and risks of severe complications. Therefore, developing safe and effective therapeutic modalities for managing iron overload is critical, as current animal models inadequately replicate human conditions. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of intravenous iron dextran on hepatocyte morphology, liver iron concentration, and serum iron profile changes as a model for hemochromatosis.

Oxidative stress and neuronal apoptosis could be an important factor leading to post-hemorrhagic consequences after germinal matrix hemorrhage (GMH). Previously study have indicated that relaxin 2 receptor activation initiates anti-oxidative stress and anti-apoptosis in ischemia-reperfusion injury. However, whether relaxin 2 activation can attenuate oxidative stress and neuronal apoptosis after GMH remains unknown.

Bile acids (BAs) play important roles in the context of lipid homeostasis and inflammation. Based on extensive preclinical mouse studies, BA signaling pathways have been implicated as therapeutic targets for cardiovascular diseases. However, differences in BA metabolism between mice and humans hamper translation of preclinical outcomes.

Liver resection represents a main curative treatment for patients with early-stage hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), but there is a rather high incidence of postoperative HCC relapse, which severely shortens long-term survival time. Currently, no standard adjuvant strategies are available for preventing HCC relapse in clinical practice. Impaired natural killer (NK) cell anti-tumor immunity has been disclosed as a crucial root of HCC relapse, indicating that reinstating NK cell anti-tumor immunity may show promise to curb HCC relapse.
