Long-term hypokinesia of August and Wistar Albino Glasgow rats caused some alterations in composition of total lipids and cholesterol esters both in blood serum and in individual lipoprotein fractions. The most distinct alterations were the following ones: I. increase in content of very low density lipoproteins (VLDL) and of low density lipoproteins (LDL), 2. decrease in the level of cholesterol esters in blood serum with a simultaneous increase of their content in VLDL and LDL as well as with alteration of their composition, 3. decrease of triglyceride content in VLDL and increase--in LDL, exhibiting the alteration in activity of lipolytic enzymes. Functional activity of muscles was very important for maintaining of the normal level of blood serum lipids and lipoproteins.

Introduction: The developed domestic retrodipeptide analogue of cholecystokinin tetrapeptide (CCK) (N-(6-phenylhexanoyl)-glycyltryptophan amide, or compound GB-115) with antagonistic properties in relation to CCK1 receptors has anxiolytic activity previously shown in preclinical and clinical studies. The aim of the study was to evaluate the anxiolytic effect of GB-115 as a tablet form with subchronic oral administration in comparison with phenazepam in nonhuman primates.

Materials And Methods: The study was conducted on four male rhesus monkeys (Macaca mulatta) aged 5.

Background: Neoadjuvant therapy is recommended for treating resectable pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC); however, its appropriate use in patients with resectable PDAC remains debatable.

Objective: This study aimed to identify independent poor prognostic factors and evaluate the clinical significance of neoadjuvant therapy in patients with resectable PDAC.

Methods: We retrospectively reviewed consecutive patients diagnosed with resectable PDAC at our institute between January 2003 and December 2022.

We present a rare case of a patient with co-occurring exercise-induced acute kidney injury (AKI) and rhabdomyolysis. A 67-year-old man was referred to our department with AKI. Five days before referral, the patient had sudden-onset loin pain while banging and kicking on a door in a holding cell at a police station.

This brief report aimed to investigate the optical absorbance spectra of normal, dysplastic, and malignant epithelial cell lines under normal and nutritional stress conditions. HaCAT (keratinocyte), DOK (oral dysplastic), and oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) cell lines (CA1, Luc4, SCC9) were evaluated regarding their optical absorbance after culture with 0-10% fetal bovine serum. Absorbance measurements indicated that HaCAT under serum starvation exhibited higher absorbance at blue (430 nm) and near-infrared (906 nm) wavelengths.
