A simple, reliable and easily generalizable cell-based assay for screening potential drugs that inhibit lipid accumulation.

Curr Res Toxicol

Ectopic lipid deposition in the hepatocyte plays an important role in the development of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), which has become one of the most common causes of chronic liver disease worldwide yet no approved drugs are currently available. In this study, a cell-based method was developed to screen potential drugs with low toxicity that inhibit lipid accumulation. In the same 96-well plate, cytotoxicity was measured using CCK8 assay, followed by lipid content detection using BODIPY 493/503 via fluorometry assay, a lipid droplet-specific fluorescent dye commonly used in microscopy and flow cytometry, but not previously reported in fluorometry.

Introduction: Portal hypertension is a common complication of liver cirrhosis. Varices are dilated collaterals that develop as a result of portal hypertension at the level of the porto-systemic connections and can cause a shift in the blood flow from high to low pressure. Common locations for porto-systemic shunts are the lower oesophagus and the gastric fundus.

Northern Hospital, Melbourne Medical School, University of Melbourne, Melbourne, VIC, Australia.

Heterotopic pancreas (HP) refers to the presence of ectopic pancreatic tissue located outside of the normal pancreatic location without anatomical or vascular continuity with the pancreas. HP within the gallbladder (HPGB) was first described by Otschkin in 1916. It remains an exceedingly rare pathology with few reported cases.

We previously documented successful resolution of skeletal and dental disease in the infantile and late-onset murine models of hypophosphatasia (HPP), with a single injection of an adeno-associated serotype 8 vector encoding mineral-targeted TNAP (AAV8-TNAP-D10). Here, we conducted dosing studies in both HPP mouse models. A single escalating dose from 4x108 up to 4x1010 (vg/b) was intramuscularly injected into 4-day-old Alpl-/- mice (an infantile HPP model) and a single dose from 4x106 up to 4x109 (vg/b) was administered to 8-week-old AlplPrx1/Prx1 mice (a late-onset HPP model).

School of Medicine, Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Afyonkarahisar Health Sciences University, Zafer Sağlık Külliyesi Dörtyol Mahallesi 2078 Sokak No: 3, Afyonkarahisar, Turkey.

Background: Standardizing the knowledge of health care givers and eliminating their misconceptions would help to achieve optimal service for contraception. This study aims to evaluate the knowledge levels of physicians and nurses working at primary health care centers about the oral contraceptive pill (OCP) use.

Methods: This is a cross-sectional review of 306 professional care givers (117 physicians and 189 nurses) who are working at primary health care centers.
