Direct comparisons of human and non-human primate brains can reveal molecular pathways
underlying remarkable specializations of the human brain. However, chimpanzee tissue is …

There is accumulating evidence that Wnt/β‐catenin signaling is involved in the regulation of
liver development and physiology. The presence of genetic alterations resulting in …

Tenascin‐X (TN‐X) is the newest member of the tenascin family of extracellular matrix proteins
and it is highly expressed in muscular tissues during development. To gain insight into …

Background. The development of a noninvasive method to diagnose renal allograft rejection
could prevent the complications associated with graft biopsy and allow more accurate …

Nitric oxide (NO) has been implicated in the pathogenesis of brain injury from hypoxia-ischaemia.
In the brain, the enzyme responsible for NO synthesis is neuronal nitric oxide synthase …

Background/Aims: Hypothermia is known to protect against ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury.
The mechanisms of protection are incompletely understood and a temperature threshold for …

Objective: To evaluate the effect of anesthesia induced mild systemic hypothermia on hepatic
injury in lean and obese rats during warm ischemia. Summary Background Data: Hepatic …

Background. The purpose of this study was to modulate the immune response of rat liver
transplant recipients by adenovirus-mediated gene transfer of CD40Ig, a secretable fusion …

The administration of glutamine before experimental ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) has been
shown to protect intestinal, pulmonary, and myocardial tissue by inducing heat shock proteins (…

BACKGROUND: This study was conducted to determine whether dendritic cells (DCs) pulsed
with a tumor cell lysate can effectively vaccinate against tumor cells and to establish which …
