Correlation of Hepatic 18F-Fluorodeoxyglucose Uptake with Fatty Liver and Liver Function Tests
Liver demonstrates heterogenous FDG uptake pattern and sometimes shows abnormally increased uptake even though there is no malignant tissue. There was no previous study to correlate these various pattern of hepatic FDG uptake with benign liver disease. Therefore, we evaluated the significance of …

A study of the Haematological findings, Serum Proteins and Liver function tests in the Natal African in Health and in Amoebiasis
A notable feature of this century has been the introduction of medical science to large, undeveloped areas throughout the world. Backward, mainly tropical, regions have become fertile fields for study, particularly of nutritional and parasitic disorders, and the application of the modern …

The effects of feeding aflatoxin contaminated swine diets with clays on performance, mineral metabolism, immune response and liver function in weanling and growing Pigs
… with and without various clays on performance, liver function, mineral metabolism and humoral immune response. In the nursery phase of Study I, weanling pigs (n=96) were fed 1% sodium bentonite (SB) with and without AC (922 ppb). In the grower phase, 48 pigs from the nursery phase were continued …

The Roles of Activin A and B in Liver Inflammation and Fibrosis
Liver fibrosis is the result of different types of chronic liver diseases, such as cholestatic liver disease and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis, among others. Fibrosis, if left unchecked, may progress to the point of cirrhosis – permanently affecting liver function detrimentally and potentially …

Biochemical and haematological changes during and after liver transplantation in the pig : the effect of different methods of storage and flushing solutions
Liver transplantation is an accepted form of treatment in advanced liver disease. The procedure qualifies as one of the most severe surgical insults that can be inflicted upon a patient. Despite an ever increasing number of clinical and experimental transplants, a vast number of unanswered …

Integrated imaging and circulating biomarkers for the assessment of drug-induced hepatotoxicity
Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is a major burden for health care systems and a principal reason for attrition during drug development. Prediction of clinical DILI remains difficult and diagnosis is usually based on exclusion using blood-based biomarkers for cell injury. Currently used chemistry …

Engineered Liver and Intestine Platforms for Modeling Physiology and Disease
The intestine and liver are connected in vivo via a recirculating blood supply called the gut-liver axis, which plays a critical role in nutrient/drug absorption and metabolism. Given the diversity of roles the liver plays, there is a need for robust in vitro models capable of recapitulating …

The Role of Polyploidy in the Liver and Its Implications for Cancer Therapy
The description of liver polyploidy dates back to the 1940s, but its functional roles are still largely unknown. Numerous observations and studies have suggested that liver polyploidy may participate in multiple biological processes, including regeneration, stress response, and cancer. However, …

Outflow Reconstruction using Cryopreserved Aortic Patch in Right Lobe Living Donor Liver Transplantation
INTRODUCTION: Living donor liver transplantation(LDLT) using the right lobe graft has widely been used to compensate for cadaveric organ shortage. To provide adequate functional volume in LDLT using the right lobe, a successful reconstruction of middle hepatic vein(MHV) is required. We describe …
