The greater Omentum - its Morphology and function
The omentum has, from time to time, provoked sporadic reports on various aspects and, occasionally, a series of reports on one in particular. Hitherto no comprehensive account of the omentum and its function has been given. This thesis was undertaken with a view to correlating the available …

Identification and Analysis of Omentum Derived Suppressor Cells in Regards to Th17 Inhibition
<p>Omentum has been harnessed by surgeons for hundreds of years, providing an ideal environment for graft healing and acceptance. However, little is known about the cellular mechanisms that promote the tolergenic environment of the omentum. We examined the cellular composition and role of activated …

An investigation of intraperitoneal procaine penicillin G administration in lactating dairy cows
… revealed foci of hemorrhage on the rumenal omentum of most cows but peritonitis was not observed. Systemic inflammation as determined by altered leukograms and fibrinogen was noted in one cow. The results of this study demonstrate that IP procaine penicillin G is absorbed and eliminated …

Heterogeneity, Origins, and Role of Omental Macrophages in Health and Early Tumor Seeding
… tumor growth in the peritoneal fluid and omentum. Selective ablation of macrophages and stromal cells reveal tumor suppressive CX3CR1+ ORM rely on Ccl19+ fibroblastic reticular cells to migrate to each tumor to restrict its growth. Additionally, we observed CCL19+ fibroblast like cells in …

Investigating the Reconstitution and Function of Peritoneal Cavity Macrophages after LPS-induced Peritonitis
… concentrate and localize at ‘milky spots’ of the omentum. Upon resolution of inflammation, the resident macrophage pool was made up both endogenous GATA6 and bone marrow-derived macrophages.

Biodistribution and Modes of Action of Multipotent Adult Progenitor Cell therapy in Murine Models of Transplant Rejection
… MAPC cells delivered IV, and accumulated in the omentum, while MAPC cells IV accumulated predominantly in the lung. In a lymphodepletion driven model of HP, MAPC cells delivered IP suppressed IFN-γ production by T cells and enhanced Treg. Importantly, MAPC cells mediated their suppressive effects …

Baylisascaris procyonis Prevalence and Impact in Raccoon (Procyon lotor) Populations
… We also isolated DNA from tissue of the greater omentum from the raccoons, and amplified four loci. We used the sequences from NADH5 to build phylogenetic trees for the nine townships, and used the other three loci to demonstrate evidence of genetic structuring and determine the impact of B. …

Fully Automated Segmentation of High Grade Serous Ovarian Cancer on Computed Tomography Images using Deep Learning
… main disease sites in the pelvis/ovaries and the omentum can already be automatically segmented with high precision, some of the rare and small disease sites lack in performance. To improve the performance and ultimately the clinical value of these approaches, more effort is needed in terms of …

Etablierung des Modells "Ratte-anti-Schwein" zur xenogenen Transplantation mikroverkapselter Langerhans-Inseln
… beide Nieren, Magen, Dünndarm, Dickdarm, Omentum, Mesenterium, sowie intra-peritoneal verbliebene Mikrokapseln explantiert. Folgende Ergebnisse wurden erzielt: 1.In-Vitro-Funktionsanalysen porziner Langerhans Inseln zeigten, dass diese nach Glukose-Stimulation Insulin reguliert freisetzen. …

The Omental Fat Band as an Immunomodulatory Microenvironment for Ovarian Cancer
Cancer research is evolving. Historically concerned with the mechanisms by which malignant cells circumvent cell death signaling and maintain unchecked proliferation, focus has shifted to the complex interactions between the tumor cell and the surrounding microenvironment. Ovarian cancer has one of …

Επίδραση της επιμήκους γαστρεκτομής με ή χωρίς εκτομή του επιπλόου στην ευαισθησία στην ινσουλίνη, στην έκκριση των ορμονών του γαστρεντερικού και στα επίπεδα των λιποκυτταροκινών σε ασθενείς με σοβαρού βαθμού παχυσαρκία
Ο αυξημένος σπλαχνικός λιπώδης ιστός αποτελεί σημαντικό παράγοντα κινδύνου για μεταβολικές επιπλοκές, που συσχετίζονται με την παχυσαρκία, και προάγει μία ήπιου βαθμού χρόνια φλεγμονώδη διαδικασία. Το επίπλουν έχει από καιρό εμπλακεί στη, σχετιζόμενη με την παχυσαρκία, μεταβολική δυσλειτουργία. …
