Dieldrin, an organochlorine insecticide, when administered orally to male albino rats at a dose of 5 mg/kg body weight/day for 15 days inhibits the enzyme Mg2+ -ATPase and stimulates the activity of 5'-nucleotidase and NADH-dehydrogenase in liver plasma membrane. L-ascorbic acid supplementation offers some protection in relation to the inhibition of Mg2+ -ATPase.

Application of Dorzagliatin in peritoneal dialysis patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus: A case report.
World J Diabetes
January 2025
Department of Endocrinology, Beijing Haidian Hospital, Beijing 100080, China.
Background: Treating diabetes in dialysis patients remains a challenge, with many hypoglycemic drugs requiring dose adjustments or avoidance in these patients.
Case Summary: This report describes an 83-year-old female patient with a 30-year history of type 2 diabetes (T2DM) who had struggled to control her blood sugar for more than a year. She had a history of high blood pressure for 30 years, had undergone continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis for more than two years, was 163 cm tall, weighed 77 kg, and had a body mass index of 28.
Endogenous C-type natriuretic peptide offsets the pathogenesis of steatohepatitis, hepatic fibrosis, and portal hypertension.

Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), hepatic fibrosis, and portal hypertension constitute an increasing public health problem due to the growing prevalence of obesity and diabetes. C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) is an endogenous regulator of cardiovascular homeostasis, immune cell reactivity, and fibrotic disease. Thus, we investigated a role for CNP in the pathogenesis of MASLD.

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.

1Hill's Pet Nutrition, Topeka, KS.
Objective: To examine the effects of age, sex, year of death/sample collection, and liver histopathology on liver copper concentrations in dogs fed a wide variety of commercial dog foods throughout their lives.
Methods: This study utilized all bioarchived liver samples collected during necropsy at time of death from 2006 to 2022 from dogs housed in a closed feeding colony. Liver samples were analyzed on a dry matter basis for copper concentration by inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometry and did not require specific criteria for selection.

One of the most common diseases worldwide is anemia, which is characterized by insufficient erythrocyte production. Numerous complex factors, such as chronic diseases, genetic mutations, and nutritional inadequacies, contribute to this widespread syndrome. This review focuses specifically on anemias caused by defective hepcidin production.
